Since 1963, MIRUC OPTICAL CO.,LTD. have been manufacturing optical peripheral and special equipment to cater both research and industrial needs of visual magnification with measurement capabilities in Japan. Miruc Dovetail Feed Screw Stage are operated by differential screw mechanism used for making small, precise adjustments to stage similar with focusing the magnification in microscope, moving the anvils of a micrometer, or positioning optics. A differential screw uses a spindle with two screw threads of differing leads (aka thread pitch), and possibly opposite handedness, on which two nuts move. As the spindle rotates, the space between the nuts changes based on the difference between the threads. Miruc Dovetail Feed Screw Stage are equipped with scale and revolutionary feed screw lens stage which allows you to select a single rotation of the handle to be set to move by 2 mm, 5 mm or 10 mm. These mechanisms allow extremely small adjustments using commonly available screws. With an easily visible central divider type color scale, the scale and clamp lever can easily be detached and switched from left to right, thus a symmetrically opposite arrangement is simple to make. As optional extras, two handled types, extension handle types and two set parallel types are available. The multi-function feed screw type has a rich array of features, providing long strokes at a regular pitch and with smooth sliding action, extremely useful for application in environments with limited space. Miruc Dovetail Feed Screw Stage Mechanism:    Rotating a bolt through two nuts with slightly different thread pitches for each changes the separation of the nuts by the difference between the threads.

Notes:

  • Be advised that differential screw mechanism using two nuts incurs higher friction and therefore requires more torque to turn than a simple, single lead screw with an equivalent pitch.
  • Focusing starts at lower magnification in order to center the specimen by the user on the stage. Moving to a higher magnification requires the stage to be moved higher vertically for re-focus at the higher magnification and may also require slight horizontal specimen position adjustment. Horizontal specimen position adjustments are the reason for having a Miruc Thin XY Rotational Stage XYR Series.
