The Imatest Modular Test Stand is an easy-to-use platform for image quality testing that is purpose-built for a professional lab setting. The fixture is available in 2 meter and 3.5 meter length. Motorized options include the Z-Stage, YZ-Stages, and fully motorized XYZ-Stages, as well as a motorized Gimbal option. Customers that initially purchase the manual version can upgrade to the motorized version with the Motorized Test Stand Upgrade Kit.
Add an Imatest Light Panel or the Reflective Lighting Module with Kino Flo LED Lights for a system that needs only a target and your camera.
Or add our Wide Field of View Module to enable fast and efficient testing of WFOV systems.
Approximate lead time: 10 – 12 Weeks.
