MCSM1-01X is a variable macro lens expressly designed for 3D measurement and imaging applications where the object plane is not perpendicular to the optical axis. A precise built-in adjustment mechanism allows the lens to accurately meet the Scheimpflug condition and to image tilted planes in perfect focus. This lens offers a wide range of magnifications and view angles. It can be interface with any structured light source to build up extremely accurate 3D imaging systems. Image sharpness is maintained even when the lens is tilted by a wide angle, since the Scheimpflug adjustment tilts around the horizontal axis of the detector plane. The tiltable mount is compatible with any C-mount camera.

KEY ADVANTAGES

Precision Scheimpflug mount
Image focus is retained across any tilted plane.
Compatible with any C-mount cameras

Notes

Working distance: distance between the front end of the mechanics and the object. Set this distance within +/- 3% of the nominal value for maximum resolution and minimum distortion.
F/# = F-number, wF/# = working F-number, the real F-number of a lens when used as a macro.

MCSM Macro setup

Setting-up the Scheimpflug mount is easy. First screw the lens into the camera C-mount, just like with any common lens. Loosen the lens C-mount adaptor by unscrewing the set-screws. Tune the lens phase to the right position, then tighten the set-screws.

Mount the lens to a secure fixture by means of the threaded holes. Once the lens is mounted, adjust the focus until the image at the center of the detector is sharp; you don’t need to tilt the detector yet.

With the lens mounted and well focused, adjust the tilt control on the side of the Scheimpflug mount by means of a screwdriver. It might be required to perform a second fine focusing of the lens to achieve the perfect setting. Once the Scheimpflug angle is set, lock the mount in place by tightening the lateral set-screws.
