Thorlabs offers several styles of cage plates for our popular 60 mm Cage System. Standard plates are designed to hold Ø2" optics with various thicknesses. SM2-threaded versions are designed to interface with our Ø2" Lens Tubes and SM2-threaded optics. For applications requiring quick changes in components, we offer both quick release cage plates and removable cage segment plates. Translating or rotating cage segment plates allow for lateral or rotational offsets, respectively, between cage system segments. To connect cage systems to a Cerna microscope or certain Nikon microscopes, we provide cage plates with dovetails.
