Optomechanics



Optomechanics is the manufacture and maintenance of optical parts and devices. This includes the design and manufacture of hardware used to hold and align elements in optical systems, such as:
 * Optical tables, breadboards, and rails
 * Mirror mounts
 * Optical mounts
 * Translation stages
 * Rotary stage
 * Optical fiber aligners
 * Pedestals and posts
 * Micrometers, screws and screw sets

Optomechanics also covers the methods used to design and package compact and rugged optical trains, and the manufacture and maintenance of fiber optic materials
