The manual rotary translation stage from LBTEK provides precise rotary translation adjustment for installing large-sized optical components and optomechanics accessories. With the right side thumb screw unlocked, the stage on the mounting base rotates manually through 360° continuous motion. The rotating disk features M6, M4, and M3 tapped hole arrays for mounting same-tapped mechanical components, prism mount clamping arms and LBTEK Ø30 mm coaxial system posts. The countersunk tapped holes at the mounting base’s bottom secure the rotation stage to optical tables or breadboards with M6 and M3 tapped holes. The side features a tapped hole for Ø12.7 mm optical post mounting.

  • 360° continuous rotation;
  • The side scale of the rotating disk has a precision of 1°, with difference scale markings at 5′;
  • Micrometer screw with 10 main divisions and 50 sub-divisions, enabling precise adjustment of the rotating platform within ±5°, with an adjustment precision of 1.2′ (0.02°);
  • Equipped with a coarse/fine adjustment toggle lock and a fine adjustment locking knob;
  • An lateral M6 tapped hole for mounting posts;
  • Component assembly of RP-1A and RP-1A-AP;

The manual rotary translation stage kit RP-1A-KIT from LBTEK, assembled from rotary stage RP-1A and adapter plate RP-1A-AP, delivers 360° continuous rotation. The rotating disk's circumferential scale has 1° graduation intervals with vernier markings achieving 5′ accuracy. A lateral thumb screw enables coarse/fine adjustment switching: loosening the thumb screw permits manual coarse rotation, while tightening it locks coarse motion and engages micrometer fine adjustment. The micrometer screw has 10 main scale divisions corresponding to a ±5° rotation adjustment range and 50 vernier subdivisions corresponding to an accuracy of 60′/50 = 1.2′ (0.02°), and can be locked by its adjacent thumb screw. Simultaneously locking both the rotating disk's lateral thumb screw and the micrometer's adjacent thumb screw secures the entire rotating platform. The rotating disk features M6, M4, M3 tapped hole arrays for same-thread components, prism mount clamping arms, and 30mm coaxial system posts. Base countersunk tapped holes are used to install the rotary stage on M6-tapped optical tables or breadboards. The lateral M6 tapped hole accepts Ø 12.7 mm optical posts. Components RP-1A and RP-1A-AP are available separately.

The optical component is installed on the RP-1A-KIT.
