These lens mount adapters attach to the lens mounts used in Amada's 1212, Apelio, 2415, 3015 and other models which use either a 1.5" or 2.0" diameter lens. They can also be used with replacement lens mounts supplied by replacement lens vendors such as II-VI and Laser Power Optics.
The adapter enables users of Amada cutting systems with 1.5" or 2.0" diameter lenses to use Lens SaversŪ windows under high pressure. The adapter attaches to the OEM or replacement lens vendor's lens mount by means of a cylindrical connector assembly which is attached to the OEM lens mount by means of socket head cap screws. The socket head cap screws in the OEM lens mount fit into counterbores in the connector assembly.
The adapter provides a holder for Lens SaversŪ window which is easily removed simply by removing the socket head cap screws. The focusing lens need not be disturbed or touched when the Lens SaversŪ window is removed. It also allows the assist gas pressure to pass into a cavity between the Lens SaversŪ window and the lens, which results in the pressure on both sides of the window being equalized. ICL's patent pending pressure equalization method prevents the Lens SaversŪ windows from breaking by providing an environment in which the pressure around the windows is equalized.
