FS:Aixiz LD Table Top Clam Shell Heatsinks

[Laserman532]

Just tonight I finished machining the ATM-20 (Aixiz Table Mount 2") Which is a clam shell heat sink for Aixiz laser diode module. This is the prototype, but it looks and works perfectly. The final sales version will be black anodized. It is one inch square and has a 2" above the surface output. The base is thru drilled on 1" centers to mount to optical tables. One could use 1/4 x20 or 10/32" screws for mounting.

I saw what great things this community is doing at this forum and this is the first of many items that I would like to contribute. My best guess is around $30.00 in quantities of one. I am also able to laser engrave anything that you would like for an additional charge. If you are interested in one or more..PLEASE!!!! PM ME!!!!

I like! $30 is a very reasonable price for that!

As I found out in my How high are your scanners thread 2" might be too high for a lot of the systems out there.

Just something to think about.

People also might be interested in a pbs cube holder in the same style.

Looks good, but I would have thought a 1" beam height to be better.

so can i assume that you found more than one beam height that people use?

I plan on having a 1" beam height as well, as there are no standards. There are too many variables to make a one size fits all formula, however I have another design which is adjustable. I've invested in this run of 25 pieces need to sell a few to finance the really cool stuff i am working on.

Yeah, I am working on that. It is a little more difficult because I want to make it adjustable in three axis's. Tip, tilt, rotate.

A while back someone on here said they machined angled mounts so that the lasers were at a slight tilt front to back. The purpose of that was to be able to adjust height by moving laser towards or away from the mirror it is being aimed at. I think that is one of the best ideas I have heard. If you could get it so that maybe 1/2" of back and forth movement would lower or raise the beam by maybe 1/8" or so that would provide for excellent fine tuning, I think. Next time I rework my scanner I think I might create some angled ships for that very purpose.

attempting to grasp the concept, true there are a million ways to do anything (just follow the laserboy drama). The scope of this mount was to hold the module and to heat sink the heat so that one may experiment with laser diodes on steroids and to do table top experiments. When I was playing with my aixiz mounts they were a PITA to hold so I made a mount. I thought others might want something like it so here it is.

For beam combining I would only use one process for precision. Two of these mounts at 90 degrees to each other a PBS mounted on a MM-1 paraellel to the table and the MM-1 able to precisely rotate about the center axis of the PBS. (actually all of it machined out of one piece of allum.) I might just make one, it wont please everyone but it will please me
