MICROJIG Matchfit DVC-1177K2 Dovetail Clamp Pro, Green/Yellow/Silver

Product Information

Because the clamp pressure is normally directly over the clamp head in the groove, the groove is supported and the board does not tear out. Again, these are measured by the interferometer when we take measurements of the optical surface after adjustment. No more dealing with frustrating slips, no more unexpected drops—just reliable consistency that optimizes your precision and efficiency in every project.

This dovetail plate is 240mm long and is useful for installing medium dimensions telescopes (such as refractors up to 130mm and reflectors up to 200mm in diameter) on mounts with Losmandy plate (as the SkyWatcher AZ-EQ6, or EQ8). Within the interferometer is a calibrated laser that is pointed through the optical test surface, then onto a high quality reference sphere, then back through the test subject then to an internal camera which gives us the measurement on the screen.Once the Zygo test report has been completed, the optical alignment is thoroughly tested and tuned to ensure they are spot on before they leave us. Now you will no longer need to replace the plate of your optical tube, so your HEQ5 will be universal like the most expensive and higher payload mounts! These are values which ideally would be at 0 but as our test optics are all curved lenses, there will always be astigmatism and coma present.

The operation is very simple, just remove the original flange, acting on three small threaded dowels and entering our flange. Hardware Pack you can create a variety of sleds, jigs and fixtures with hold downs and stops that can move freely and lock down where needed anywhere you can.
