Post-Mountable XY Translation Mounts

Thorlabs offers a variety of XY travel optic mounts. These mounts utilize M3-0.25 fine adjustment screws to provide ±1mm travel perpendicular to the optical axis. The adjustment screws provide 250µm/rev and there is a 5/64 hex socket in the back end of each screw. An "L"-wrench may be used to achieve small incremental movements. All XY mounts utilize SM-series threads to secure the optic, making them compatible with virtually any SM-series externally threaded component. The LM05XY is a compact mount ideal for mounting Ø1/2" optics, the LM1XY is used to mount Ø1" optics, and the LM2XY is used to mount Ø2" optics.

Response from Javier at Thorlabs to Daniel: Thank you for your feedback. We will modify the LM1XY mount accordingly. I will keep you updated of the progress, and will also send you a prototype.

Please incorporate 2 mounting points to the LM1XY stages, opposite both adjustment screws, so that the mount can be used in either orientation. The side adjustment screw interferes with my setup, and I can not turn it around, since the adjustments only work on one side.

Response from Laurie at Thorlabs: Thank you for your interest in our LM2XY Translation Mount. Due to the use of adhesives, you will not be able to take this component fully apart. It is also not intended for high vacuum use above 1E-3 Torr due to the anodizing, grease, and epoxy used. However, we are able to create custom items that would be suitable for vacuums up to 1E-6 Torr values. If you are interest in pursuing that avenue, please contact our technical support staff.

I want to take apart an LM2xy and a lm1xy so that they can be cleaned for high vacuum use. How do I take them apart? Dan

Thorlabs offers a variety of optic mounts for XY travel. These mounts utilize M3-0.25 fine adjustment screws to provide ±1mm (LM05XY and LM1XY) or ±2 mm (LM2XY) of travel perpendicular to the optical axis. The adjustment screws provide 250 µm/rev, and there is a 5/64 hex socket in the back end of each screw. An L-wrench may be used to achieve small incremental movements. All XY mounts utilize SM series threads to secure the optic, making them compatible with virtually any externally threaded SM series component. The LM1XY (LM2XY) accepts optics up to 8 mm (13 mm) thick.

Cover Plate with Clearance Holes
  • Designed Specifically for Use with the ST1XY Series of XY Translators (Featured Above)
  • Connect Two Internally Threaded Cage Components with ER Rods
  • SM1 (1.035"-40) Threaded Through Hole
  • Four 4-40 Screws Included

The ST1CP is a bolt-on adapter designed specifically for use with the ST1XY-series of XY translators. Like our ERSCA adapter, this plate can be used to connect two internally threaded cage components with ER rods. First thread the four included 4-40 screws through the ST1CP through hole and into the internally bored side of the ER rod (as shown in the figure to the left). Then, remove the back plate on an ST1XY stage and secure this adapter plate in its place using the four outer 2-56 counterbored through-holes. Once attached, this adapter plate keeps the cage and any SM1-threaded component attached to the adapter plate stationary, while enabling an optic inside the ST1XY stage to move relative to these fixed components.

Alternatively, this adapter can also be attached to the front side (i.e., the side without the removable mount) of an ST1XY stage using the included 4-40 screws. In this case, the front side of the ST1XY stage will no longer be cage compatible (although the back side still is). However, the advantage of this configuration is that two SM1-compatible components can be attached to the ST1XY stage (one on each side) and an optic inside the stage can be moved relative to these fixed components.
