DescriptionProduct DescriptionStandard metric M4, M6 breadboard hole arrayBottom Ø51 mm male dovetailfor connection to microscope main systemsCompatible with 30 mm and 60 mm cage systemsSolid aluminum, low-reflection black anodized finishCompatible with MCP-D2B dovetail adapter plate (female dovetail: Ø53.2 mm, α=60°)The MCB series breadboards are designed for building custom wide-field observation setups and epi-illumination paths on top of Oeabt microscopy imaging systems. The breadboard features a Ø51 mm male dovetail with a central Ø38.1 mm through-bore for the optical axis of the imaging system.表格ModelMCB1Dimensions450×117×12.2 mmPort typeMale: Ø51 mm, α=60°Clear apertureØ38.1 mmThreaded holes8×4-40, 6×M4 (countersunk), 90×M6Weight1622.5 gMaterial7075 Aluminum Alloy表格ModelMCB2Dimensions364.7×100.0×15.9 mmPort typeFemale: Ø53.2 mm, α=60°Clear apertureØ38.1 mmThreaded holes4×4-40, 22×M4, M6 (number as specified)Weight1393.9 gMaterial7075 Aluminum AlloyTechnical NotesMicroscope DovetailA dovetail is a mechanical mounting interface used for precise alignment and assembly. Components are joined by inserting one dovetail into another and securing with one or more set screws. Dovetails come in two geometries: linear and circular.Linear dovetails allow sliding and locking for flexible positioning while constraining other degrees of freedom.Circular dovetails enable optical port alignment between components, maintaining a single optical axis with minimal user adjustment.Many products in the Oeabt microscopy imaging series use dovetail designs compatible with Oeabt components and optomechanical parts from other manufacturers. For compatibility identification, key dovetail dimensions are listed in the parameter tables. Note that these dovetail designations are specific to Oeabt products; naming conventions may differ among other microscope manufacturers. Always refer to engineering drawings for dovetail compatibility.Oeabt Microscope Dovetail Reference TypeModelDovetail ShapeDovetail SizeAngleCompatible WithDovetail AdapterMCSM2-D2MaleØ50 mm60°MCP-D2B MCSM2-D1.5MaleØ37.6 mm90°Nikon Eclipse, Thorlabs Cerna D1.2-CSM05MaleØ30.5 mm60°CSJ-D1.2BD1.2-SM1SM05Male——— D1.2-C20Male——— D1.2-SM120Male———Dovetail Adapter PlateMCP-D2MaleØ51 mm60°MCP-D2B MCP-D2BFemaleØ53.2 mm60°MCSM2-D2, MCP-D2B MCP-D2-1.8BMale / FemaleØ51 mm (OD), Ø46.17 mm (ID)60°MCP-D2B, Nikon Eclipse, Thorlabs Cerna, OlympusThe MCB series breadboards are used to construct custom wide-field observation setups and epi-illumination paths on top of Oeabt microscopy imaging systems. The breadboard is equipped with a male or female dovetailwith a central Ø38.1 mm through-bore for the imaging system optical axis. This dovetail allows direct mounting to the epi-illumination arm of the microscope main body or stacking additional breadboards on top of epi-illumination modules.Note: MCB1 should be used with the OPS95-ML base plate for mid-mount installation.ModelCompatible SystemMCB130 mm, 60 mm cage systemsMCB260 mm cage systemIn addition to standard M4/M6 hole arrays, the breadboard has 8×4-40 threaded holesat the dovetail port, enabling integration with 30 mm and 60 mm cage systems for seamless mating of optical and threaded ports.AssemblyApplication ExamplesEngineering DrawingsMCB2 Engineering DrawingMCB1 Engineering Drawing
