Optical Chopper
Rotating Disc Optical Choppers
Optical chopper is a mechanical method to repeatedly switch light beams, which is generated by a rotating blade to perform chopping operations.
Specific product list:
300CD |
The most popular chopper, with a standard option in the range of 5Hz to 3kHz, can reach up to 40KHz |
310CD |
A high-speed chopper system can reach 110kHz |
340CD |
The 200mm disc system ensures that large beams can be cut off |
350CD |
The 30mm disc optical chopper system provides a small chopper plate |
360C |
A small, compact, and low-cost system is highly suitable for OEM applications |
300CDProduct Features:
