OT1 Lens Turret with
4 Microscope Objectives
The OT1 is an SM1-compatible compact objective lens turret with four RMS-threaded ports. The housing is primarily constructed of aluminum but has steel inserts at critical points to ensure the durability and precision of the detent mechanism that reproducibly positions the objective lenses with a bi-directional repeatability of ±2.5 µm. The mounting interface for the OT1 objective lens turret has external SM1 (1.035"-40) threading so that it can be easily integrated into custom imaging systems built using Thorlabs' Lens Tube and Cage Systems. To mount the OT1 turret in a cage system, use a CP33(/M) for a 30 mm cage system or an LCP33(/M) for a 60 mm cage system. The OT1 is designed to securely hold objectives in either horizontal or vertical orientations.
The RMSCP1 and RMSCP2 are caps designed to protect unused lens turret ports, microscope objectives, and other RMS (0.800"-36) threaded components. The RMSCP2 features external RMS threading for the lens ports of the OT1, while the RMSCP1 features internal RMS threading for microscope objectives.
Additionally, we offer a Post-Mountable Focus Block that includes a built-in five-objective turret.
