Parallel-kinematic design for six degrees of freedom, making it significantly more compact and stiff than serial-kinematic systems, higher dynamics, no moved cables: Higher reliability, reduced friction. suitable for vacuum environments to 10-6 hPa.
The simulation software simulates the limits of the workspace and load capacity of a hexapod. Therefore, even before purchasing, you can check whether a particular hexapod model can handle the loads, forces, and torques occurring in an application. For this purpose, the simulation tool takes the position and motion of the hexapod as well as the pivot point and several reference coordinate systems into account.

The maximum travel ranges of the individual coordinates (X, Y, Z, θX, θY, θZ) are interdependent. The data for each axis shows its maximum travel range when all other axes are in the zero position of the nominal travel range and the default coordinate system is in use, or rather when the pivot point is set to 0,0,0.
For continuous operation in a vacuum, restrictions on operating parameters may be necessary due to heat generation.
Air-side connecting cables are not included in the scope of delivery and must be ordered separately.
