LINOS Microbench

LINOS Microbench

It is our pleasure presenting You the original Microbench, invented by LINOS!

This compact 4-rod construction system is in serial production in Göttingen, Germany since 1968. The LINOS Microbench was developed by LINOS predecessor Spindler & Hoyer as an innovative replacement of the triangular rail system. Small in its dimensions, precisely centered, simple to integrate, easy to expand, and very rugged: the LINOS Microbench is ideal for all spatial structures in any compact form.

Thanks to the broad range of optical and mechanical components available, the LINOS Microbench is an integral part of many optomechanical instruments. Take advantage of more than 40 years of experience to ensure the highest precision and stability for your requirements.

Our Quality Criteria:


• German manufacturing expertise using only high-quality, extremely durable materials
• Surface finishing with precision anodizing
• Narrow production tolerances
• On-going system expansion with new optical and mechanical components
• The LINOS guarantee: Complete compatibility of all Microbench series components - from 1968 to today

For a rapid setup of your optics, LINOS offers a large array of mounted optics developed specially for the Microbench; look for the m symbol in the catalog.

Ideal Areas:

Optics with Ø of 18 to 31.5 mm; illumination and imaging assemblies; optical inspection, measurement and testing equipment; interferometric applications, and more.
