Cover image Lens holder and mounting options

Flexible options for easy and fast mounting of our telecentric lenses

The air hook for lenses? - Unfortunately not invented yet... But: We offer help! - A wide range of holders is available for mounting our telecentric lenses.

Multiple variants allow easy and precise mounting in almost unlimited orientation

Lens holder - standard versions

two standard lens holders, circumferential

Available for circumferential clamping for various lens diameters;

Also available in a variant with defined distance to the optical axis.

The distance of the M5 female thread is 12 mm.

Lens holder d45 'wide'

For circumferential clamping of a lens diameter of 45 mm;

Can be used from TO66 lens series;

The distance of the M5 female thread of the holder is 16 mm.

Combination

Lens holder d45 'wide' + mounting angle LL (with oblong hole)

The lens holder d45 wide can optionally be connected with the mounting angle (compact) or mounting angle LL as shown in the illustration using M5 screws.

Combination

Lens holder d45 'wide' + mounting plate LL (with oblong hole).

Connecting screws with M4 to M6 threads or UNF 1/4" threads can be used.

The oblong holes provide a wide range of alignment options.

Additional mounting options for heavy lenses - special holder for TO88 and TO125 series

Mounting option Mounting bracket on TO125

Mounting bracket attached to the side of the lens

For our "heavyweights" - vicotar® objectives of the TO88 and TO125 series:

customised telecentric lenses and optical systems

Additional holes drilled in the tube (M4 for TO88 series and M6 for TO125 series) allow them to be securely attached to their mounting.

Mounting bracket and mounting bracket LL

For our heavier lenses, we offer mounting brackets for lateral fixation - these can be mounted directly into the mounting holes that are machined into the lens.

The simple mounting bracket can in turn be combined with the mounting bracket or the mounting bracket LL.

The technical drawing shows all possibilities for mounting the lens

Information on mounting the objectives in the technical drawing:

All possible areas for clamping the objective are indicated in the technical drawings. They have a g7 tolerance as standard.

For the larger objectives (TO88 and TO125 series), the threaded holes for tightening the objectives are also shown.

Frequently asked questions

Can you clamp the lenses with two holders at the same time?

In principle, this is possible. However, care should be taken to ensure that one bearing is a floating bearing, otherwise mechanical stresses will occur in the lens.

In most cases, however, one clamping point is sufficient. - Then the camera can also be fixed via the lens.

Which profile types do the lens holders fit?

The lens holders can be connected to common aluminium profiles, for example from MONTECH, Bosch or Item.

The connection can be made directly via a slot nut. - This enables, for example, the central hole of the lens holder d45 'wide'.

Or the connection is made via the slotted holes of the corresponding holders.

In all cases, connecting screws with threads from M4 to M6 or and also with UNF 1/4" can be used.

From which lens diameter does the lens need an extra holder and cannot be held over the camera?

We recommend that a lens mount be provided for lens diameters of 56 mm and above. - With smaller lenses, the lens can also be held indirectly via the camera connection.

An additional support is also recommended for very long lenses.

For which diameters are the standard lens holders available?

They are available for the following clamp diameters:
25 mm, 28 mm, 32 mm, 34 mm, 35.5 mm and 45 mm.

For the clamping diameter of 32 mm, there are still variants with a defined distance from the mounting base:
30 mm (lens holder d32-30) and 60 mm (lens holder d32-60).
