Fast Steering Mirrors

Piezo Fine & Fast Steering Mirror - DTT60SM-SG

CEDRAT TECHNOLOGIES (CTEC) Piezo Fast Steering Mirrors’ (P-FSM) platform and their associated electronics are widely used in optical instruments, cameras, telescopes and electro optic systems embedded on airplanes, helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), satellites, spacecrafts, etc...

The double Tip/Tilt Platforms have an excellent dynamic performance, reliability over a large temperature range and compactness make them ideal for the following mechatronic functions & applications:

Optronics / Electro Optics: image & line of sight stabilization, Anti blurring, D-scanning, micro scanning, tracking, dithering, Free-space optical (FSO) communication link,
Scientific Instrumentations: interferometer, Lidar, laser guide star,
Space: LEO Optical Inter Satellite Link, Deep Space Optical Communication, GEO Ground Laser link, Field Of View scanning, Adaptive telescope Mirror,
Defence: laser designator, Direct Energy Weapon, High Energy laser
Production / Machining: 3-D printer, rapid prototyping, material processing machine, laser engraving
Medical Technologies: ophthalmological laser

The Commercially Of The Shelves (COTS) Solutions for P-FSM used as Beam Steering Mirrors (BSM) are presented below. A dedicated brochure Fine & Fast Steering Mirrors presents the customized and OEM FSM solutions already delivered by CTEC to the Space and Electro Optic market.

Piezo Tip Tilt - DTT60SM-SG

Description

The piezo tip tilt DTT60SM-SG generates 2 rotations around axis X (tip) and Y (tilt). It includes strain gages (SG) positioning sensors and their build-in SG conditioner electronic board for higher resolution and positioning control robustness in embedded and field applications. The optical deflection angle can reach up 1.2° with mirror up to 2 inches diameter.

Performances

Max Angular stroke > 10 mrad; Unloaded resonance frequency > 1,750 Hz; Dimensions < 60mm diameter*40 mm height

Available options

Mirror size under request & specific control loop calibration
