The CXYZ2-M series translation stages provide translational travel along the X, Y, and Z axes. The XY travel allows the object in the system to move ±3 mm vertically relative to the optical axis. Two drive types are available: micrometer drive and differential drive. The Z-axis travel of ±2 mm compensates for focusing errors in applications such as fiber alignment or lens mounting.

The adjustment dial on the back of the rotation stage can translate along the Z axis. The dial is laser‑marked with “Extension/Retraction” indicator arrows that show the rotational direction for moving the stage forward and backward. The telescoping sleeve section of the stage is also laser‑marked with 0.5 mm spaced graduations to indicate the Z‑axis translation p

osition.

The stage support frame features SM1 (1.035″-40) threads and comes with one CSK3 retaining ring, allowing mounting of Ø1‑inch optical components up to 10.5 mm thick.

The four through‑holes on the stage can be used with our Ø6 mm posts, making it compatible with our 60 mm cage system. Set screws are located beside the cage rod mounting holes, which are locked into position using a 1.6 mm hex wrench.

There are two M6 threaded holes on the side opposite the XY adjusters, facilitating mounting for post applications.
