Spectrograph Component Breakdown - Grating Dominates System Design #1730411 (License: Personal Use)

This pie chart details the proportional contribution of five core components in a typical astronomical spectrograph: grating (62%), software (18%), slitmask (15%), optics (5%), and rotor (0%). The near-zero rotor share indicates it may be non-functional or omitted in this design iteration. Such visualizations help engineers prioritize development, procurement, and calibration efforts based on component criticality.

Used in technical documentation, instrument design reports, or educational material for astronomy/engineering audiences; matches user intent to understand subsystem weighting, resource allocation, or failure-point analysis in optical instrumentation.
