About Collimators

A collimator produces a beam of light with parallel rays, essential for:

• Testing lenses and optical systems at infinity focus

• Aligning optical components in complex assemblies

• Calibrating telescopes, rangefinders, and other instruments

• Simulating distant objects in a laboratory setting

The 7-inch focal length provides a good balance between beam diameter, working distance, and optical correction.
