Mechanical Kits for Sol’Ex & Star’Ex Spectrographs

Discover our complete Sol'Ex and Star'Ex mechanical kits, built according to the open-source designs of Christian Buil, fully hand-assembled and ready for action. Each spectroheliograph ships with all internal hardware, mounts, and fasteners pre-installed in our workshop: simply drop in your optical glass elements to start imaging.

✅ Available Configurations:
  • 🔵 Sol'Ex & Star'Ex Pro: High-end mechanical assembly printed in Carbon-Fiber PETG with proprietary internal anti-reflection baffling and Gen2 slit holders. The stiffest, most thermally stable, and future-proof platform.
  • 🟢 Sol'Ex & Star'Ex V2: Standard technical PETG build offering high thermal durability, the ideal entry point to explore high-resolution solar scanning spectroscopy.
🚀 Why Choose Our Pre-Assembled Mechanical Kits?
  • 🔧 Ready for Optics: All fasteners, alignments, and internal holders are factory-tuned (no 3D printing or complex DIY fabrication needed).
  • 💎 Advanced Polymers: High-precision manufacturing in UV/heat-resistant standard PETG and Carbon-Fiber reinforced PETG.
  • 📜 Official Project Approval: Sol'Ex V2 and Sol'Ex Pro kits are officially validated and recommended by project designer Christian Buil.
🌍 Who Is This For?
  • 🔭 Amateur Astronomers & Clubs: Image the dynamic chromosphere across H-Alpha, Calcium H/K, or Helium lines without spending weeks building hardware from scratch.
  • 🌌 Stellar Spectroscopy Enthusiasts: Seamlessly upgrade to stellar spectral classification (Star'Ex HR and LR modules).

👉 Notice: Mechanical kits do not include optical elements (slits, diffraction gratings, and doublet lenses are available from our partner Shelyak Instruments).
