Base plates for combining manual stages or fixing them securely to an optical table.

BP series bases adapt manual stages to each other and to the optical table, making it easier to combine different stage types or fix a stage in place. Aluminum alloy versions (BP-A) are anodized and stainless steel versions (BP-S) are sandblasted. Plates range from 40 × 40 mm to 100 × 100 mm, with NFP-461-Base and NFP-462-Base plates also available.

Key Features

  • Aluminum alloy (BP-A, anodized) or stainless steel (BP-S, sandblasted) versions
  • Square sizes of 40, 60, 65, 80 and 100 mm; rectangular 80 × 100, 80 × 125 and 80 × 175 mm
  • 10 mm thick BP plates; 9 mm thick NFP-461-Base and NFP-462-Base
  • Counterbored through holes plus tapped M3, M4 and M6 holes, depending on size
  • Stainless steel versions in 40, 60 and 65 mm sizes

Typical Applications

  • Mounting manual stages on optical tables and breadboards
  • Adapting between stages of different sizes
  • Building stacked multi-axis manual assemblies
