WHAT DOES OPTICAL BENCH MEAN IN ENGLISH?

optical bench

Optical table

An optical table is a platform that is used to support systems used for optics experiments and engineering. The surfaces of these tables are designed to be very rigid so that the alignment of optical elements remains stable over time. Many optical systems require that vibration of optical elements be kept small. As a result, optical tables are typically very heavy and incorporate vibration-damping features in their structure. Many use pneumatic bearings that act as a high-pass filter to vibrations, preventing low-frequency vibrations in the floor from reaching the tabletop. The surface of an optical table is typically stainless steel with a rectangular grid of tapped holes in either metric or imperial units: ▪ metric: M6 on a 25 mm grid ▪ imperial: ¼-20" UNC on a 1" grid Optical breadboards, benches, and rails are simpler structures that perform a similar function to optical tables. These are used in teaching and in research and development, and are also sometimes used to support permanently aligned optical systems in finished devices.

Definition of optical bench in the English dictionary

The definition of optical bench in the dictionary is an apparatus fitted for experimentation in optics, typically consisting of a table and an adjustable arrangement of light source, lenses, prisms, etc.
