Fiber Optic Positioner, XYZθz, Connectorized, FPH-CA Series

The FPR1-C1A Fiber Optic Positioners provides four degrees of precision positioning for connectorized standard or polarization-preserving fibers. We’ve improved these mounts by adding high-resolution 100 TPI adjustment screws and including new larger diameter knobs with an integral hex hole for smooth adjustment with increased sensitivity. Fibers are aligned in four axes (XYZθZ). Axial Z motion is accomplished without rotation of the fiber by a knurled knob with a precision 80 TPI thread. The FPR1-C1A incorporates our new zero-free play XY mechanism ensuring accurate positioning and enhanced long-term stability, reducing drift over both time and temperature. New independent locks for each axis of translation and rotation securely lock the mechanism, not just the actuator screws, maintaining stable alignment. Engaging or disengaging each lock on these models has negligible influence on the other axes. For the FPR1-C1A connectorized fiber positioners, FPH-CA Series Fiber Chucks must be ordered separately. Rotating chucks are graduated in 15° increments and may be rotated through a full 360°. All FP Series Fiber Optic Positioners have threaded holes in their base for post mounting.
