A compact mirror manipulator which has high stiffness and is easily adjustable has been developed for new beamlines at SRRC. It consists of a vertical stem to support the mirror and allows for six‐axis precise positioning. The rotation adjustment is designed with a minimum of cross‐coupling between adjustments. An independent support is fixed to the ground to reduce vibration from the chamber and the pump. Some performance test results in vacuum and in atmosphere, including vibration, repeatability, long‐term drift etc ., are described in this paper.
