The MT3 (MT3/M) translation stage is fitted with standard 1/2" (13 mm) micrometer drives. The quick-change modular design utilizes precision-aligned dowel pins to ensure orthogonality between stages and allows the user to reconfigure stages quickly as applications change.
Four 1/4"-20 (M6) counterbored slots on the included adapter allow the stage to be directly attached to a breadboard with user-supplied cap screws. Each stage contains seven 1/4"-20 (M6) and four 8-32 (M4) tapped mounting holes that are 0.22" (5.6 mm) deep.
The MT Series translation stages can be purchased individually (MT1 Series) or as fully assembled, 3-axis, XYZ translators (MT3 Series). Therefore, the MT3 stage can be disassembled using a 3/16" (5 mm) hex key to customize the positions of the micrometers or to use three MT1 stages separately. See the XYZ Assembly tab for details.
