Hexapods & Positioning Systems
Hexapod System Components
The key elements of any hexapod are:
- Struts incorporating actuators and sensors
- Interface structures that attach the struts to payload and base structures
- Electronic conditioning and drive for transducers
- Controller hardware and firmware
- A means of user control, typically through software
- Capability to receive additional information from the customer system
- Capability to store information about the hexapod response
Our hexapods include the following:
- Actuators and sensors that are appropriate for the application
- Strut and mechanical interface geometry compatible with customer space constraints
- Fast and proven controller hardware
- Standard libraries for hexapod control
- User interfaces tailored to provide appropriate control and data access
- Options for vacuum compatibility, automated operation and acceptance of remote analog or digital commands
