Integrated linear encoders ensure precise trajectory tracking in up to six degrees of freedom.Operating at frequencies of up to 100Hz the hexapod can be used to verify image stabilisation algorithms and simulate any human or artificial motion in medical applications.
Reference-class 6-axis positioning system
Parallel-kinematic design for six degrees of freedom making it significantly more compact and stiffer than serial-kinematic systems, no moved cables.
Precise running of predefined motion profiles with high path accuracy: Sine curves and freely definable trajectories. Digital I/O interfaces for trigger signal emission
Powerful digital controller, open software architecture
User-defined, stable pivot point, software-selectable. Positions commanded in Cartesian coordinates. Macro programming. Open source LabVIEW driver set. Work space simulation software. Virtual Hexapod machine software. Optional: Collision avoidance software (external obstacles)
PIMamTM voice coil magnetic drive for high velocity and high dynamics
Noncontact magnetic drive principle, no frictional or rolling parts for guiding and joints. Zero-backlash positioning, no mechanical noise in the drivetrain. Silent. Low wear and high lifetime. Integrated linear encoder for reliable position control and repeatable accuracy. Fast and precise direction reversal through low moved mass and lightweight design (highly stiff, milled carbon parts)
Fields of application
Research and industry, test systems, e.g. for image stabilization in cameras and mobile devices. Equipment for camera test systems and image stabilization software, certification according to CIPA planned. Oscillation simulation, eye tracking, simulation of human and artificial motion.
