[Column] What is an Autocollimator? Explanation of Principles and Applications!

High precision and high resolution! Long working distance, non-contact instantaneous angle measurement.

The "Smart LAC Series" is an angle measuring device that measures the tilt of a surface without contact. Conventional displacement sensor methods calculate based on the height difference between two points, making them less effective for measuring small workpieces. However, this product adopts a laser autocollimator method, allowing measurement at a single point, thus enabling the measurement of small workpieces. Additionally, it supports both single spot measurement and multi-spot measurement. 【Features】 ■ Non-contact instant angle adjustment ■ Long working distance (Measurement range ±0.5 degrees at W.D. 300mm) ■ High precision and high resolution ■ Wavelength selection available from red, green, blue, and infrared ■ Capable of measuring the angle of external incident light *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Cataracts are a common condition that significantly impacts daily life, causing many people to struggle. However, cataract surgery can restore or greatly improve patients' vision. KNF vacuum pumps are an essential component of the medical devices used for such precise surgeries. KNF offers a diverse lineup of diaphragm pumps for cataract surgery. For debris removal, the N 813 is a strong option. It achieves a maximum vacuum of 0.5 mbar (absolute), a maximum flow rate of 13 l/min, and a maximum pressure of 0.3 bar (relative). The N 813 provides stable, reliable performance with a compact design. It can be equipped with a customizable state-of-the-art BLDC motor that enables precise flow control. Its configuration and motor allow for low-speed operation, ensuring the necessary flow rate and vacuum for cataract surgery while reducing noise and vibration.

This is a 2K line scan camera equipped with Gpixel's GL3504. It features a 7×7μm CMOS with a horizontal resolution of 2048 pixels. The monochrome model supports single and dual line modes, while the color model supports 3-line true color output. The maximum line rate is 172.7 kHz for the monochrome model and 44.7 kHz for the color model, making it ideal for industrial inspection as well as logistics and print inspection. It comes in a compact C-mount housing with a 50mm square design and is equipped with mounting taps on the front and four sides, ensuring easy installation regardless of position or conditions.
