China 6061 Aluminum Alloy Optical Path Reference Support P1-VER3 Flange - Suppliers & Factory for Precision Optical Systems
Product Overview
The optical path reference support (P1-VER3 flange version) is a precision optical accessory designed to provide stable and accurate positioning for optical components. In optical system assembly, it ensures the relative positioning accuracy of lenses and mirrors, thereby maintaining the accuracy and stability of light paths.
Widely applied in optical experimental setups, precision measurement instruments, and advanced optical equipment, this component plays a critical role in guaranteeing reliable optical performance.
The part measures 131 × 126 × 106 mm and is designed with mounting holes on all four sides, enabling secure installation of optical lenses. Since even the slightest positional deviation can compromise light path alignment, tight relative positioning accuracy is the primary manufacturing challenge.
