Description

2" and 1.25" Autocollimator

Astrosystems autocollimator is the only autocollimator on the market that is precision laser aligned to better than 3 arc minutes.

The Autocollimator is used to fine tune the optical alignment after using the LightPipe/SightTube or a laser collimator. It utilizes a flat mirror that shows multiple reflections through the optical system. This is 2-4 times the accuracy of a Cheshire, LightPipe or laser collimator. The adjustment screws are then locked to insure lifetime accuracy. Includes a 14 page instruction booklet.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Scarlett B. ★★★★★

I needed to check my secondary mirror alignment, and this autocollimator's precision laser alignment made it incredibly straightforward. Both the 2" and 1.25" barrels fit my focuser perfectly.

Daniel P. ★★★★★

The laser alignment to under 3 arc minutes made dialing in my secondary mirror much quicker than with my old cheshire. I'm seeing tighter star images now that everything is collimated properly.

Riley ★★★★★

Finally got my mirrors squared away thanks to the precision laser alignment on this tool. The fit in both my 2" and 1.25" focusers is snug and stable, which makes dialing in collimation a breeze.
