Straightness measurement optics kit
The straightness measurement optics are used to measure straightness errors in a
linear axis. Straightness errors are displacements perpendicular to the axis of travel,
either vertical or horizontal depending on the mounting orientation of the optics.
The straightness measurement kit is available in two versions: short range for
measurements from 0.1 m to 4 m and long range for measurements between 1 m
to 30 m.
Note: Accessories are required when measuring vertical straightness in a
horizontal axis, or straightness in a vertical axis of a machine:
Straightness shutter LS350 laser beam steerering optic
Large retroreflector Fixed turning mirror
Straightness base Adjustable turning mirror
Flatness measurement kit
The flatness measurement kit is used to measure the flatness of surface plates
and granite tables.
The flatness turning mirrors allow the laser beam to be directed along any line of
the surface plate without having to move the laser. You will also need a straight
edge as long as the longest measurement line (this is not supplied in the kit).

Note: The angular measurement optics are also required where the
angular interferometer is attached to a turning mirror and the angular
reflector is attached on top of the selected flatness base.
