Precise Positioning Platform

This is an industrial/research grade 6 DOF Positioning platform (Hexapod) which provides simultaneous motion in all 6 degrees of freedom — X, Y, Z and θX, θY, θZ.

It can maintain high stiffness in all kind of situations (even power off) and can be mounted in wall,ceiling or base mount configuration

The minimum incremental linear motion is 5 Microns and rotational resolution of 12.5 uRadians can be achieved. Travel range is ±50 mm in X,Y and ±25 mm in Z, with payloads up to 20 kg supported.

The simultaneous motion is achieved due to the fact tha all the actuators work in parallel - To ensure rapid position change and high stiffness. The system can be used for parts machining - rf antenna alignment and positioning system.
