Presenting the BRESSER Laser collimator 31.7mm (1.25″)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The\u00a0laser collimator <\/b>makes aligning the mirrors of a\u00a0Newtonian telescope\u00a0<\/b>simple, fast and precise. With the laser you collimate your optics even in the dark without additional accessories. Precisely machined it fits a\u00a01,25″ focuser\u00a0<\/b>without tilting. The\u00a0built-in projection area\u00a0<\/b>enables collimating even long focal length scopes in a breeze.<\/p>\n

A laser collimator allows one to conveniently\u00a0align the optics of a reflecting telescope<\/a>. First, you use the laser collimator to determine whether or not the\u00a0secondary mirror<\/strong>\u00a0is pointing directly at the center of the\u00a0primary mirror<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The first thing you do is shine the laser collimator through the tube of the telescope. It should be ensured that the laser collimator is firmly in place without any movement. This will ensure the proper alignment of the laser collimator without any flex or flop.<\/p>\n

The laser beam will reflect off the secondary mirror and reach the primary mirror. A primary mirror usually\u00a0has a small marking tape on it. The laser is aligned to hit this marker and the secondary mirror is then accordingly oriented and focused.<\/p>\n

The collimation of a laser is done for a very good reason. It helps\u00a0to theoretically align the focus of the image at infinity. This helps to increase the clarity of far-off celestial objects. Let\u2019s\u00a0consider a theoretical example that may explain\u00a0why a laser is used to collimate in telescopes.<\/p>\n

Suitable for\u00a0Newtonian<\/b>,\u00a0Schmidt-Newtonian\u00a0<\/b>and\u00a0Maksutov-Newtonian teleskopes<\/b>.<\/p>\n
