Use combinations of moves to assemble and simulate complicated mechanical linkages like robotic arms and convertible automobile roofs.

Pull Joints and Constraints directly from your CAD model to quickly build 3DCS models. Save time, and reduce user error by allowing modelers to leverage Model-Based Engineering.

These lenses are computer designed to effectively minimize spherical aberration and coma when operating at an infinite conjugate ratio. Unlike singlet lenses, this results in a constant focal length independent of aperture and far better off-axis performance. Freedom from spherical aberration and coma means that achromats are superior to singlet lenses for monochromatic applications at any visible wavelength. At 1064 nm the focal length of a typical achromat increases by approximately 0.75%. An achromat will not be diffraction limited at 1064 nm but performance will still be superior to a singlet lens.

Extracting Joints and Constraints from CAD and applying them to your DCS model instructs the software on the build and assembly process of your product. This creates the Moves in 3DCS Variation Analyst automatically, saving valuable time for the modeler.

Build mechanical models in 3DCS using a large library of Joints and Constraints to accurately represent your products behavior.

Engines, gears, pistons, levers, arms, linkages can all be modeled using mechanical moves and Joints and Constraints. 3DCS Mechanical Modeler simulates connected parts and can deviate those parts through their range of motion, validating the build at each step. Find out if your assembly will build and function given your GD&T and assembly process.

Visible Achromatic Doublet Lenses have significantly better optical performance than singlet lenses in visible imaging and laser beam manipulation applications. Our achromats have precise specifications and tolerances for uncompromising image quality. Computer optimized designs minimize aberrations, yielding smaller focused spot sizes. Our achromats can be substituted for our singlet lenses, allowing complex experiments to be verified with simple lenses and later improved with achromats.

For image relay and optical processing applications, a specially designed symmetric achromatic triplet lens optimized for 1:1 conjugate ratio is available ( PAC076 ). This lens is diffraction limited at 488, 514.5, and 632.8 nm.

Standard inch diameters allow for mounting in many Newport holders when building laboratory experiments. Our achromats can be substituted for our singlet lenses, allowing complex experiments to be verified with simple lenses and later improved with achromats.

An achromat consists of a positive low-index crown glass lens element cemented to a negative high-index flint glass lens element. The elements are chosen so as to cancel chromatic aberration at two well separated wavelengths; usually in the blue and red region of the spectrum. Focal length is constant at those two wavelengths and focal length shifts are virtually eliminated across the visible wavelengths. All of our achromats are available with a single-layer MgF2 broadband antireflection coating to increase transmission throughout the visible spectrum. Our precision achromats are also available with a multi-layer anti-reflection coating (AR.14) for superior transmission efficiency in the broadband visible range.
