New Patent for Uniblitz N-CAS Shutter

BFi OPTiLAS is pleased to bring news of the successful application by Vincent Associates for a patent for its UNIBLITZ® II N-CAS® NS series of shutters.  The NS15 (15mm), NS25 (25mm) and the NS45 (45mm) are the first in the series to be added to the product line.  Additional aperture sizes and additional uni-stable devices will also be available soon.

The UNIBLITZ® II N-CAS® NS series is a novel innovation in shutter design from Vincent Associates. The devices’ reliability has been enhanced by significantly reducing the number of moving parts. The total number of moving parts has been reduced to six, five of which are the shutter blades themselves! The activating mechanism is non-contact and has shown to increase its reliability through testing over similar type shutter designs.

Mechanical Shutter from UniblitzThe N-CAS® device is innovative by comparison. There are no solenoids, no linkages, and no external damping system. The damping system has been integrated into the device to provide long lasting, quiet operation. The only protruding component is the unit’s actuator coil. The external mounting surfaces of the device are flat which make the shutter simple to integrate into user applications. These shutters are bi-stable, only requiring power to change their state. The devices can also be configured uni-stable (powered active and return to the default state once power is removed).

NEW Solarc Miniature Low Wattage HID Lamps

We are pleased to introduce a new miniature, low wattage HID (High Intensity Discharge) lamp from Welch Allyn to our product range.

The miniature arc produces an easy to focus intense light source and is smaller in size but with greater output than a multi lamp LED.

Miniature arc lamp

The lamp was developed for the endoscopic market and interest has been high from medical as well as industrial arenas.  The lamp can be used as a direct light source into an endoscope, without using a fibre optic, or as a light source using a small fibre bundle, which is still more effective than the halogen equivalent.

Welch Allyn is a leading innovator who design and develop superior lamps ideal for integration into high-precision analytical equipment and this new product will be an important addition to BFi’s optics portfolio helping us to go from strength to strength supplying high tech solutions to industry.
