A Beginner’s Guide to Collimation - Gary Seronik
2012年11月28日 · I’ve been building and using telescopes for more than three decades and I’ll share with you a secret: collimating a Newtonian reflector is easy. So why does it seem so difficult when you’re just starting out?
Collimator - Wikipedia
In X-ray optics, gamma ray optics, and neutron optics, a collimator is a device that filters a stream of rays so that only those traveling parallel to a specified direction are allowed through.
How to collimate your telescope - Astronomy Magazine
2019年4月2日 · Collimation is the process of aligning all components in a telescope to bring light to its best focus. All telescopes need to be collimated at some point; however, it’s easy...
Collimation Tools: What You Need and What You Don’t
2011年10月6日 · Here is a rundown of the various collimation tools commonly available, and their relative strengths and weaknesses. My evaluations are based on several decades of making and using reflector telescopes. All the devices discussed below can produce satisfactory collimation.
Collimated beam - Wikipedia
An example of an optical collimating lens. A perfect parabolic mirror will bring parallel rays to a focus at a single point. Conversely, a point source at the focus of a parabolic mirror will produce a beam of collimated light creating a collimator .
How To Collimate A Telescope; Beginner’s Guide - The Big Bang …
Collimation is the process of aligning all components in a telescope to bring light to its best focus. All telescopes need to be collimated at some point; however, it’s easy to perform this task on some and a bit more involved for others. Collimation is a lot like routine car maintenance.
How Do I Collimate All Types of My Telescopes ... - Telescopic Watch
Below is how I collimate my telescopes that belong to either of the 4 major telescope types: refractors, Newtonian reflectors, Schmidt-Cassegrains (SCT), or Maksutov-Cassegrains (Mak). Newtonians are the most likely to need collimation.
Collimating Your Telescope - Master Telescopes
Collimation, in the context of telescopes, refers to the precise alignment of the optical elements within the telescope’s optical tube. This alignment ensures that light entering the telescope is accurately focused at the eyepiece, providing you with the clearest and sharpest images possible.

Obsession Telescopes / Learning Center / Collimation
Learn how to accurately collimate the optics in your telescope. You need a laser collimator. Be sure to try the barlowed laser technique, the most accurate method to align the primary mirror. Any barlow laser combination will work fine as long as your barlow can accept your laser. TeleVue's Paracor coma corrector also works extremely well.
