Description: 10 Micron GM2000 UltraPortable GoTo Mounting

Alpine Astronomical is now the exclusive US Distributor for the full line of mountings from 10 Micron, of Italy. 10 Micron mountings are designed and made like no other, taking every aspect of the modern GoTo German Equatorial to the limit. The GM2000 and GM4000 have proven themselves in Professional and Amateur use throughout the world, including research installations in South America and the South Pole.

The GM2000QCI is the ultimate solution for the amateur looking for a no-compromise GoTo mounting for their large refractor or reflector. No other mount delivers the capacity and stability, tracking accuracy, and performance in such a manageable package. The build quality and precision of the GM2000 are truly remarkable.

• Conservative Capacity of over 100 lbs. Comfortably carries fully-loaded Cassegrains to 14.5” and large refractors up to 8”.
• Ideal for permanent automated installations.
• True Portability without sacrificing capacity/rigidity or accuracy. Splits into two easily managed components weighing 28 and 33 lbs.
• Matching accessories: Carbon Fiber Tripod, Rigid Transport Cases.
• Blazing fast 8°/second Slews (almost 2X the speed of similar capacity mounts).
• Superb Machining and Fabrication. The photos don’t do this mount justice. Its rigidity, quality of construction, and finish are like no other production mounting.
• Bronze Worm Gears deliver high smoothness and accuracy over a long life (6-8 arcseconds peak-to-peak total error before correction).
• Near-Zero Backlash, High-Rigidity Worm Drive System.
• Brushless AC Servo Motors smoothly deliver high accuracy, speed, and reliability.
• Drive System is Belt-Driven, producing an extremely quiet and backlash-free drive without the noise and tooth-to-tooth errors of spur gears.
• Flexible Linux based QCI control system supports fully automated remote operation as well as standalone operation (no PC required). Includes on-board LAN.
• Powerful stand-alone functions include accurate polar alignment routines and a sophisticated internal pointing model that utilizes up to 10 stars to achieve pointing accuracies of under 30".
