About



Since 1971, Micro-Radian Instruments has met the exacting standards of military, aerospace, metrology, and industry for precision angle measurement solutions. From the first MRA-150 analog autocollimator to our new PC-based digital autocollimators, we have always engaged the latest, most advanced technology available. This continuous improvement and ability to change has made us the premier source for specialized, application-specific autocollimators. Our standard products include instruments suitable for applications that range from the battlefield to the calibration standards laboratory, and all of our products can be customized to meet your specific requirements.

Our specialized facility in Bellingham, Washington was designed and constructed for the manufacture and testing of angle measurement instruments. Our manufacturing, laboratory and testing equipment have been selected for their quality and accuracy. Combine these with our experienced technical staff and you have a company with the knowledge and flexibility to manufacture the best autocollimators available.

Micro-Radian Instruments manufactures a complete line of digital autocollimators. Their exceptional accuracy and high resolution make them suitable for applications including the calibration of rotary tables, the verification of angle standards, and for remote or long term angular monitoring operations. Additional uses include measurements of flatness or straightness and providing angular feedback in servo-controlled systems. All Micro-Radian autocollimators are available with analog-only electronics and analog outputs. These autocollimators are suitable for providing high speed measurement data in analog servo-feedback and servo-feedforward systems. Both Micro-Radian analog autocollimators and digital PC-based autocollimators are ideal for OEM airborne and stable platform applications.

Micro-Radian Instruments offers two visual alignment autocollimators. Visual autocollimators rely on the operator's eye to act as the photodetector. Micro-Radian visual autocollimators project a pinhole image. The operator views the reflected image(s) through an eyepiece (MRA-50) or on a computer monitor (CCD-100D). Visual autocollimators are ideal for applications including checking the face parallelism of optical windows and wedges or to line up laser rod ends. All Micro-Radian visual autocollimators are fix-focused on infinity, making them suitable for use at any working distance. Both autocollimators come with an incandescent light source; however, an optional white LED light source is available.

Micro-Radian is a fully integrated manufacturer and maintains in-house design and development, machining, engineering, calibration, and production departments. This provides the flexibility and expertise to create solutions for your specialized requirements in an efficient and cost-effective way.
