Product Description
The HVM Series is a kinematic optical mount unlike any optical mount in its class. The HVM’s unique “ball-and-wedge” drive mechanism enhances the overall performance of the optical mount by reducing stiction and backlash to negligible levels while maintaining a compact and robust package.
This unique drive mechanism also allows substantial angular tilt without adjustment screws protruding from the back of the mount, where fingers can block the beam. At a scant 0.75 in. (0.68 for HVM-.5) thickness the HVM can be placed in optical systems requiring minimum footprint. Newport’s “in-line spring” mechanism provides targeted tension at appropriate points to ensure the HVM is stable both short- and long-term. The high resolution adjustment screws have a locking mechanism to prevent inadvertent adjustment. This same mechanism provides the ability to customize the feel/tension of each adjustment.
