New Molds for TI35 Astrograph models
New molds for TI35 carbon parts are ready!!
RAW image field correction test on a TI45 f/4
M106 field. A very good raw test on a TI45 f/4. Single 90 sec, unguided, uncalibrated frame, taken with a KAF16803 (37 x 37 mm CCD sensor). Sky was medium-bad (SQM about 20.1, Poor seeing about FWHM 2,6″).
A Quartz Lightweight Blank for a TI35 Astrograph
Holding a 362 mm diameter quartz blank in your hand and having the impression that it is made of plastic … it’s fantastic
– Fused Silica (Quartz) performs an awesome thermal expansion coefficient of 5.4 x 10-7/℃ , 6 time less than borosilicate glasses, harder enough to allow better figuring process and advantage in terms of strength to density ratio.

TI 45 Telescope Control Software Test #01
First test of the Astrograph Control Software using a smartphone via WIFI. For more informations on our Astrographs, please visit our website: www.italiantelescopes.net The Control Software is full Ascom Alpaca compliant.
Aggiornamento TI45!
Un po’ di ritardo rispetto alle previsioni, ma ne varrà la pena. La presentazione dell’astrografo TI45 è prevista per la primavera 2016 e ci saranno sorprese molto interessanti (rispetto alle caratteristiche che trovate attualmente sul sito) che sicuramente giustificheranno l’attesa. Ancora un po’ di pazienza…

TI45 Astrograph update: Our vertical CNC at work. Let say…hard work….
Most of the mechanical parts of our TI45 Astrograph are in phase of realization thanks to the hard work of various CNC machines. Great design, all 3D designed and FEM optimized, all CNC made, for the higher grade Astrograph in the market.

There was something missing! TI45 Astrograph f/4 Lens Group: simply optomechanics jewelery
TI 45 Astrograph f/4 Lens Group
Indeed there was something missing! Now a beautiful inscription on the metal tells us what we are talking about. We are a bit ‘late, but here we come!
We do not call them “correctors”! They are simply the “lens groups” that are part of the optical design. So… “Triplet ED Lens Group”. They are for the TI 45 Astrograph in f/4 mode. Very soon we will show the f/8 mode “lens group”.
