Since the release of the first generation OCAL electronic collimator, it has achieved great success and has been recognized by many astronomy enthusiasts around the world. Adhering to the concept of "keeping integrity and innovation", we continue to increase investment, conduct in-depth research and development, and are committed to producing telescope collimators with higher precision. After the efforts of the first, second and third generation collimators, we specially customized the 3.0 MAX version of the electronic collimator, which is the best among all current versions. It has significant improvements in the following two aspects.
We believe that only by minimizing the error of the collimator itself can we bring better results to the telescope collimation. Therefore, we use the best camera module assembly method in the industry, which allows the lens, CMOS The tilt error has reached a high-quality level recognized in the industry. The average tilt deviation of the 3.0 MAX camera module is expected to be <10′, which greatly reduces the error demonstrated in Figures 2, 3, and 4.
We have also made major changes in the assembly of the camera module and metal casing. We changed the previous solution of only using screws to limit fixation to a solution of limiting slots and separating the camera module from the PCB. . This solution ensures the assembly accuracy of the camera module and the housing, and the uncertainty in the strength of the screws that fix the PCB will not affect the cameraAssembly drawing
The 3.0 MAX collimator must use the latest software version. The software operation and tutorial content have not been changed and remain consistent with version 3.0. Finally, the R&D investment in the 3.0 MAX version has increased our production costs. We believe that for some telescopes with shorter focal lengths and larger focal ratios, the electronic collimator version 2.0 can already meet the needs of most customers. In order to provide a better purchasing experience for some customers who do not have high accuracy requirements, we have decided to stop sales 2.0 PC version, and the price of the 2.0 PRO version has been significantly reduced. Hope everyone knows, thank you!
