Low-profile aluminum rotation stages with 360° coarse and 10° micrometer fine adjustment for low-light optical setups.

AKR series rotation stages offer 360° coarse rotation and a 10° micrometer-driven fine adjustment in a low-profile aluminum body. The black anodized surface keeps reflections low, which suits dark-room setups that need careful angle adjustment. Four models cover Φ45 to Φ120 mm stage surfaces at 20–30 mm thickness.

Key Features

  • 360° coarse rotation and 10° fine adjustment by micrometer
  • Sensitivity from 1.21 arcmin down to 0.49 arcmin (AKR10A-120)
  • Crossed-roller ring bearing on Φ60–Φ120 models; angular contact ball bearing on the Φ45 model
  • Black anodized aluminum alloy body with low reflectivity
  • Low-profile design: 20–30 mm thick, 0.16–1.5 kg
  • Vernier scale with 0.1° minimum reading; static parallelism ≤0.05 mm
  • Central load capacity up to 3 kg

Typical Applications

  • Angular alignment of optics in dark or low-light environments
  • Orientation of polarizers, waveplates and filters
  • Sample rotation for angle-dependent measurements
  • Compact multi-axis manual positioning assemblies
