SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on identifying specific adaptors for a molecular scanner laser head, with particular emphasis on the possibility of a 42mm T mount. Participants suggest contacting the manufacturer for specifications and recommend photography stores for additional insights. The conversation highlights the challenges of identifying adaptors from images due to insufficient detail. It also mentions the importance of measuring thread pitch to ensure compatibility.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of molecular scanner components
  • Familiarity with T-mount specifications
  • Basic knowledge of photography accessories
  • Ability to measure thread pitch accurately
NEXT STEPS
  • Research T-mount specifications and compatibility
  • Explore photography accessory stores for adaptor options
  • Learn how to measure thread pitch for precise fitting
  • Investigate online forums or communities focused on molecular scanners
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for molecular scanner users, photography enthusiasts, and anyone involved in the integration of optical components in scientific equipment.

This is a molecular scanner laser head:

I just want to know what kinds of adaptors are the following? Are they also used elsewhere like in photography accessories? What are they called exactly? Is it a 42mm T mount?

Computer science news on Phys.org
Look for the specs on your molecular laser scanner or contact the company. They should be able to provide you with the info much faster than we can unless we just happen to have one sitting around.

Also, what is the manufacturer's name and scanner model number that might catch someone's eye too?

The wine purity sensor is second hand and it's not written in the manual and the company refused to answer any questions if it's bought second hand and they don't want to disclose what kind of adaptors are those.
 
Okay then try a photography store. They would perhaps know the adapters better.
 
Aren't there ways of doing google image searches?
 
I think the images don't have enough detail to distinguish one adapter from another.

What do you need to know? Can you measure the thread pitch? Here is standard Tmount:

Does that help?
 
Not me @new6ton was interested and has photos of what he’s looking for.

Maybe s/he can visit some wine afficionado sites and ask there.
