Mechanics

Flange back (FB, see diagram below)

+0.374 (in glass t=0.3 IRCF)

Lens zoom structure The stepper motor is directly connected to the screw
Lens focusing structure The stepper motor is directly connected to the screw
Lens size
  • Length: 90.4mm
  • Width: 45mm
  • Height: 45mm
  • Front end diameter:  40.5mm

In order to accommodate different image sensors, the focal distance is set back by flange back (FB) distance. The actual distance for a specific sensor has to be calculated and spacers used. If the image plane is not set correctly, focus irregularities in the projected picture are expected.

Controller SCE2-L086

SCE2-L086 is inexpensive dual layer application board designed to match lens FFC routing and topology based on SCE2-M 4 channel stepper motor controller module. Controller is based on STM32 microprocessor and TMC2300 motor drivers. Modern stepper motor drivers allow wide range of operation and suitable from operating NEMA17 to micro motor. Control logic is based on CNC control firmware GRBL.
