Worm-driven aluminum goniometers with curved crossed-ball guides for sensitive, stable manual angle adjustment.

AKG series goniometers combine a curved crossed-ball guide with a worm gear and worm drive to tilt the stage about a rotation center above its surface. The worm drive gives sensitive, stable manual angle adjustment, and the black anodized aluminum body keeps weight between 0.15 and 0.42 kg. Six models cover ±8° to ±15° travel with design center heights from 40 to 75.5 mm.

Key Features

  • Worm gear and worm drive with 235:1, 252:1 or 352:1 transmission ratio
  • Curved crossed-ball guide for smooth, stable motion
  • Travel from ±8° to ±15° depending on model
  • Run-out of rotation center from ≤60 µm down to ≤15 µm (AKG50-60, AKG75-60)
  • Vernier minimum reading 0.1°; approx. 1.02° to 1.53° per drive turn
  • Stage surfaces of 40 × 40, 60 × 60 and 65 × 65 mm; load capacity 3–5 kg

Typical Applications

  • Tip/tilt adjustment of mirrors, optics and samples
  • Angular alignment about a fixed pivot point
  • Detector and fiber angle alignment
  • Multi-axis manual positioning assemblies
