Description
The MID5C is a high-precision Motorized Iris Diaphragm featuring an adjustable square aperture, controlled via an intuitive PC-based graphical user interface (GUI). Its unique
design ensures that the metallic blades maintain perfect onaxis centering relative to an internal hole - which can optionally be configured with an SM05-threaded mount.
Even when adjusted from 0 to 5 mm, the square aperture remains perfectly centered within the round external diaphragm. The blades are black anodized to minimize unwanted reflections, ensuring optimal performance. With an aperture adjustment precision of <0.5 µm and repeatability of <1 µm across the entire tuning range, the MID5C delivers exceptional accuracy. It is designed for seamless integration into both stand-alone setups and 30 mm cage systems (e.g., Thorlabs).
