SPIE Security, Defense, & Sensing Conference,
April 6-8, 2010
We will be attending SPIE Security, Defense, & Sensing Conference at the Orlando World Center Marriott Resort & Convention Center, 6-8 April 2010.
At this conference, we will be showcasing our new patent pending shutter product, the UNIBLITZ® N-CAS® DSS Series shutters and the new ED12DSS shutter driver which operates at +12VDC. The DSS Series is the newest innovation from Vincent Associates, with enhanced reliability due to the significant reduction in moving parts. The DSS Series contains only two distinct moving parts, the drive ring and the blades.

In addition to our standard product line, Vincent Associates has years of experience in custom modifications as well as special shutter designs. If one of our standard products does not seem quite what your application requires, please contact us to discuss your particular requirements with one of our specialists. A sampling of our capabilities include:
NORMALLY OPEN SHUTTER DESIGN Specific shutters in the UNIBLITZ line can be configured normally open, closing upon actuation. See normally open VS35 drawing below for typical VS normally open configuration.
OEM SHUTTER DRIVERS We have available a varied line of OEM drivers that have been used in many different applications. Designed to be powered from AC or DC voltages, we may have a drop-in design for your specific requirement. If not, we can design a shutter driver to fit your specifications.

CUSTOM CABLES If we do not have the proper cable for your specific application, we can provide varied lengths and other special modifications required for your shutter system.
CUSTOM SHUTTER CONFIGURATIONS For example, our VS14 and VS25 shutters can have excess plate material removed to allow the shutters to "fit" in even tighter applications. These modifications are referred to as the "X" and "Y" plate cuts. (See VS25 ALTERNATE PLATE CUT drawing below.) We have also modified our shutter mechanisms themselves to achieve the smallest UNIBLITZ shutter outlines available. Please let us know how we can modify our shutter systems for your specific application.
ADDITIONAL SHUTTER ACTUATOR COIL VOLTAGES Specific operating voltages such as +12 or +24VDC may require the shutter actuator coils to be re-configured. If your application requires operation at these voltages, alternate coils
are available.
ALTERNATE MOUNTING OPTIONS We have a large selection of standard mounting options for varied types of microscopes and video systems. If our standard systems will not fit your application, we can (and have) designed special mounting systems for the most complex applications.
"S" BLADES REFLECTIVE STAINLESS STEEL We have this option available as well.
Please give us an opportunity to provide for your unique shutter application!
