Adjustable turning mirror
The vertical turning mirror is used for
straightness measurements along
vertical axes and can also be used in
some horizontal axis measurements.
The mirror deflects the linear beam by
a nominal 90°.
Straightness base
The straightness base is used as a
mount for the straightness reflector
and adjustable turning mirror (or laser
steerer with fixed turning mirror) for
vertical straightness measurements.
Swivel mirror
The swivel mirror is used to deflect
the laser beam in the vertical plane
through the range 0° to 135°.
The swivel mirror can be used in
combination with linear, angular
or straightness optics to allow
measurements to be made along
machine diagonals, or on inclined axes.
It can be attached to the optics for fast,
easy set-up.
Fixed turning mirror
The fixed turning mirror deflects the
laser beam by a fixed angle of 90°
(to a tolerance of ±30 arc minutes).
Like the swivel mirror, it can be
attached to the linear and angular
measurement optics to help optical
set-up and is used mainly when access
to the required axis of measurement is
restricted.
