AKR Series Manual Rotation Stages, 360° Coarse, 10° Fine, Black Anodized
AKR SeriesDesign Tools
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
