The precision finish — iterative refinement that takes alignment to the highest level achievable.

After your laser aligns the secondary and your Cheshire delivers final primary alignment, the Farpoint autocollimator enables an iterative refinement approach for the tightest collimation possible. Each one is machined from sturdy anodized aluminum to optical-grade tolerances and backed by a lifetime alignment guarantee.

It took 10 years of iterative design and machining refinement before we cracked it in 2016 — the result is what customers consistently call the finest autocollimator on the market. Works best as part of the complete laser-and-Cheshire workflow. Designed for Newtonian and Dobsonian reflecting telescopes only — not intended for refractors, catadioptric, or SCT designs.
