A collimator is a commonly used optical testing instrument. Limited by optical materials, it is difficult for refractive optical systems to achieve a large aperture and lightweight design; reflective systems are less limited by materials, are easy to make lightweight, have no chromatic aberration at all, and the images formed by light of various wavelengths are strictly consistent and completely coincident, and can work over a wide wavelength range from ultraviolet to infrared, transmit a large amount of energy, and have high system transmittance. Moreover, the optical path can be folded to reduce the size of the system, so reflective systems are generally adopted. Among the two options of spherical mirrors and aspherical mirrors, the parabolic mirror is the most commonly used mirror. A coaxial optical system is adopted, with the primary mirror being a paraboloid, plus a single plane mirror, folding the optical path by 90 degrees, focusing to the focal point. System optical path diagram. At the focal point of the paraboloid, various reticles, a Gaussian eyepiece, an autocollimation illumination system or a blackbody radiation source are placed, and together with the primary and secondary mirrors form a coaxial reflective collimator.

Reflective coating applied.; Has autocollimation function and focal length measurement function, providing visible light and infrared infinity targets.; Equipped with a Gaussian eyepiece and a plane mirror, allowing autocollimation work; visible light can be used to test focal length, equipped with a Porro plate.; Equipped with a thermal imaging target, can test the spatial resolution of thermal imaging lenses or systems.; Visible light accessories; equipped with reticles, Porro plates, resolution plates, etc.; equipped with two parallel optical flats, diameter about 50mm, parallelism <=15''; equipped with an adjustable mirror, diameter about 150mm, N<=3; Infrared accessories; equipped with a temperature-controlled surface blackbody; measurement temperature 30°C to 90°C, accuracy 1°C.; equipped with a pinhole target and several four-bar targets.; One platform; one platform for placing the collimator.; Primary mirror aperture 250mm, focal length 1021mm;; Mainly manifested in: uneven transmittance at corners due to light blocking; Cause of the abnormality: 1. The incidence angle range and the working angle (installation/use angle) need to match the actual requirements of the lens, for example, the customer's requirement is 30 to 60, but the actual...; Laser intensity decreases and marking is not clear enough. Solutions: ① Whether the laser resonator has changed; fine-tune the resonator mirrors; make the output spot optimal; ② The acousto-optic crystal has shifted or the acousto-optic power supply output energy is low; adjust the acousto...; Wide application range: can mark on almost all materials. 2. High marking efficiency: the laser beam under computer control can move at high speed (linear speed of 5-10 meters per second), and the usual marking process can be completed within seconds...; Cause: the actual on-site testing environment is harsh: the field lens has many stains, will locally absorb moisture, and the parts with cracks and stains are locally heated and broken down. Improvement: keep the use environment as clean as possible, wipe regularly, and avoid prolonged use...
