A is a mechanical component (usually a custom-machined aluminum or 3D-printed rigid arm) designed to lock the positional relationship between a camera’s optical axis (live view) and a moving machine axis (e.g., a 3D printer’s Z-axis, a CNC spindle, or a microscope stage). Its goal: ensure what you see in the camera’s live view is perfectly coaxial or parallel to the machine’s motion.
