Zusammenfassung:An adjustment apparatus for adjusting the angular tilt of a first component of a magnetic circuit relative to an alignment axis of a second component of the circuit uses at least one pair of spacers each of which has a thickness that changes continuously around its periphery. The spacers are arranged between the circuit components and, as a relative rotation between the spacers is changed, the combined thickness of the two spacers increases in one area, while decreasing in another. This results in a tilting of a top surface of the spacer pair relative to a bottom surface, and a corresponding change in a relative tilt of the first component relative to the second component. The spacers may be ring-shaped or disc-shaped, and allow for precise alignment of the magnetic circuit without the need for shims between the components.
