Rack and pinion stages
Description
These stages allow longer travel and much quicker movement than screw-driven types. They are provided with scales and verniers reading to 0.1mm and clamps to lock the motion.
The adaptor plate 06 XT 40 allows any component holder with M6 thread to be mounted onto the carriage of these stages. A locating groove in the adaptor allows any holder of 16mm width to be locked with the axis parallel or perpendicular to the rack. This includes tube clamp rings (see Tube holders) and stock-size lens holders.
A variety of measuring microscope or cathetometer systems can be constructed using microscope tubes and telescopes in conjunction with the scales on these units. The clamp ring/adaptor 07 XT 40 simplifies construction of these systems by mounting the tubes directly on the stage carriage.
