4.5 Mounting Equipment
Thorlabs manufactures a variety of fibre chucks, holders and fixtures to fit the
NanoMax stage. However, custom hardware can be designed using a tongue-in-
groove arrangement and the cleats provided, see Fig. 4.3 for a typical fixture.

Caution
The internal mechanism of the unit is delicate and is easily damaged by
mishandling.
Do not apply excessive forces to the moving platform.
When attaching accessories (e.g. fiber holders) to the top platform or angle
brackets (e.g. AMA007 and AMA009) to the side of the unit, do not use long
bolts which protrude into the internal mechanism as this could cause damage
to the internal flexures.
The weight attached to the moving platform must not exceed 1 kg.
Caution
When packing the unit for shipping, use the original packing. If this is not
available, use a strong box and surround the NanoMax with at least 100 mm of
shock absorbent material.
