The HVM-.5 Vertical Drive Kinematic Optical Mount is unlike any optical mount in its class. It's very stable and yet easy to adjust without burning your fingers. The HVM’s unique ball-and-wedge drive mechanism enhances the overall performance of the 1/2 inch (12.7mm) diameter optical mount by reducing stiction and backlash to negligible levels while maintaining a compact and robust package. This unique drive mechanism also allows substantial angular tilt without adjustment screws protruding from the back of the mount, where fingers can block the beam. At a scant 0.68 inch thickness the HVM can be placed in optical systems requiring minimum footprint. Newport’s in-line spring mechanism provides targeted tension at appropriate points to ensure the HVM is stable both short-term and long-term. The high resolution adjustment screws have a locking mechanism to prevent inadvertent adjustment. This same mechanism provides the ability to customize the feel/tension of each adjustment.

HVM -。垂直驱动运动光学支架不同于同类光学支架。它非常稳定，而且很容易调整，不会烫伤手指。HVM独特的球楔驱动机构通过将阻力和间隙降低到可以忽略的水平来提高1/2英寸(12.7mm)直径光学支架的整体性能，同时保持紧凑和坚固的封装。这种独特的驱动机构也允许有实质的角度倾斜，没有调整螺丝突出从背后的安装，手指可以阻止梁。在不足0.68英寸的厚度，HVM可以放置在光学系统需要最小的足迹。新港的内联弹簧机构提供了针对性的张力在适当的点，以确保HVM是稳定的短期和长期。高分辨率调整螺丝有一个锁定机制，以防止无意调整。这个相同的机制提供了定制每个调整的感觉/张力的能力。
