Industrial Optical Mount, High-Resolution Flexure, 1.0 in., 2 100-TPI Hex

The MFM-100-HR Compact Stainless Steel Flexure Mirror Mount is designed for set and forget OEM applications. Welded construction, stiff flexure pivots, and precision adjustment screws provide excellent mechanical stability. 100-pitch adjustment screws yield arc sec-level sensitivity over a ±2.5° range. Adjustment is easy using an Allen wrench or our optional BD-05 ball driver. No bulky knobs risk accidental misalignment in the field. 1 inch (25.4 mm) diameter mirrors can mount in either face, so adjustments can be made from the front or the back of the mount. A mirror can be secured with the built in nylon-tipped set screw or, using the adhesive wells, permanently bonded to the mount.

Designed for Industrial Applications

MFM Series Mirror Mounts are specifically designed for “Set and Forget” OEM applications. They all have:

1. Compact geometry.
2. Hex key (knobless) adjusters to save space and prevent tampering.
3. Extra stiffness from stainless steel construction.
4. Adhesive wells for permanent mirror mounting.

Flexure Design Means Compact Size

With a flexure mirror mount, a spring-steel element provides the means for angular positioning. The double-duty ability of the flexure provides both guided rotation as well as the spring force, enabling a more compact design.

MFM-100 Thermal Testing Results

The maximum deflection of the MFM-100 mirror mount during peak temperature was 8 µrad in pitch and 6 µrad in yaw, and the shift in reflected beam position after temperature cycling was < 2.5 µrad in pitch and < 1 µrad in yaw. This demonstrates the mount's excellent thermal properties. Further details are shown in the accompanying graphs.
