-
Collimators - (69 companies)...laser collimators send a beam to the diagonal, on to the primary, back to the diagonal, then back to the focuser. When collimated, the beam hits the center of both mirrors and returns directly to its source. X-ray collimators are devices used to filter...

Avantier Inc.
Off-Axis Parabolic Mirrors Choosing an Off-Axis Parabolic Mirror. Key parameters of an off-axis parabolic mirror are the off-axis angle (OAA), the off-axis distance (OAD), and the focal length. Choose an appropriate OAP mirror by deriving the desired reflected focal length from your desired beam diameter. The small angle approximation leads to a very simple relationship between these two parameters: Beam Diameter = 2 x sin( ) x Reflected Focal Length. Where is the divergent half-angle of the incident light. In fiber... (read more)Browse Optical Mirrors Datasheets for Avantier Inc. -

Spherical Mirrors Types of Spherical Mirrors. Concave Spherical Mirrors: These mirrors curve inward and have a reflective surface that can focus light. They have a positive focal length and a positive radius of curvature. Concave mirrors magnify objects that are close to them. Convex Spherical Mirrors: These mirrors curve outward and typically make objects appear smaller than they are. They have a negative focal length and a negative radius of curvature. Convex mirrors are often used to expand the field of view... (read more)Browse Optical Mirrors Datasheets for Avantier Inc. -
Budnick Converting, Inc.
Acrylic Foam Tapes are Superior to Fasteners waste. Tapes, especially when die-cut, create minimal waste while the adhesive is confined to the bonding area. * Extra equipment is needed to dispense liquids and can be difficult to maintain over time. Mechanical Fasteners. * Foamed acrylic tapes absorb energy and stress, eliminating the possibility of weak points unlike rivets and fasteners. * Over time, rivets and fasteners will rust after being exposed to moisture, and sunlight. * Virbrational fatigue can be compensated for by using acrylic...

Silicon Carbide Mirrors (SiC Mirrors) additives in an inert atmosphere and high pressure. Sintered SiC results in a very hard ceramic suitable for optical mirrors but requires extensive machining to eliminate surface roughness. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): CVD is used to produce very pure SiC in a face-centered cubic crystal form. This type of SiC has exceptionally high thermal conductivity but is more expensive to produce. The choice of manufacturing method can impact the physical properties of the SiC, such as density and Young... (read more)Browse Optical Mirrors Datasheets for Avantier Inc. -

Custom Fabricating & Supplies
Die Cutting of 3M VHB and Acrylic Foam Tapes As a 3M Preferred Converter, CFS has the opportunity to work on very challenging projects which require extensive knowledge of the intricacies and eccentricities of die cutting VHB and high-performance foam tapes. The properties of these tapes - which make them desirable for badge/emblem attachment - also make them more difficult to work with than traditional tapes. Our Delta ModTech features advanced technologies making these complex projects possible. Read about it here. (read more)Browse Adhesive Tapes Datasheets for Custom Fabricating & Supplies
