The IXFbs series of flexure mounts is derived from our popular IXF monolithic flexure mounts. Clear aperture cut-outs have been added to maximize beam clearance for beamsplitter applications. These cutouts are set at 45° and maximize beam clearances at full travel. Available in front-adjust or top adjust configurations for flexibility of mounting in confined laser cavities. This new feature is ideal for applications where accessibility to the mount is limited and our standard model can't be accessed. Built into the top adjustment mechanism is a simple split-clamp lock for the 100TPI adjustment screws. These locks work best when they are pre-loaded prior to adjustment, adjustment made, then locked in place. (Patent No. 8,925,409)

The IXF1.0bsa is derived from our popular IXFa monolithic flexure mounts. This variation incorporates the same features as our IXFa's but has clear apertures cut out to maximize beam clearance for beamsplitter applications. These cutouts are set at 45° and are large enough to accommodate a maximum beam size of 10.3mm at angle variations of 2.5°. These mounts use our 100TPI precision thread adjustment screws for low stiction fine adjustments and are swaged at the end to prevent over-travel of the mount. Machined from a solid piece of aluminum these mounts are designed for "flight" or vacuum applications. Aluminum models exhibit the same performance specifications as the steel models. Custom OEM versions are available.

The IXF1.0tbsa M is derived from our popular IXFa monolithic flexure mounts. Clear aperture cutouts have been added to maximize beam clearance for beamsplitter applications. These cutouts are set at 45° and are large enough to accommodate a maximum beam size of 10.3mm at angle variations of 2.5°. This variation incorporates the same features as our IXFa but has the tip/tilt adjustments moved to create a top-adjusted flexure. This patented top-adjust feature is ideal for applications where accessibility to the mount is limited and our standard model can't be accessed. The pitch and yaw adjustments are made using our 100TPI precision thread adjustment screws for low stiction fine adjustments and are swaged at the end to prevent over-travel of the mount. The top-adjust block incorporates an anti-creep feature that allows the user to adjust a pre-load on each adjustment screw. (Patent # 8 925 409)

For the ultimate in stability in systems using 2" optics Siskiyou 2" beamsplitters are available in both aluminum and stainless steel versions. They accommodate input or exit beams with a 45° ± 5° propagation angle. These mounts use our 100TPI precision thread adjustment screws for low stiction fine adjustments. The adjusters are swaged at the end to prevent over-travel of the mount. Motorized actuators can be mounted for remote control applications. The aluminum version is vacuum compatible as a standard feature. Matching mounting blocks with pin pockets in the base are available separately.
