Leading Products

PUNA HEXAPOD

PUNA is an affordable hexapod for precision positioning in research or industry. It offers six degrees of freedom with 0.5 µm translation and 5 µrad (0.0003°) rotation resolution for payloads up to 25 kg. Simplified design includes an in-line motor with an incremental rotary encoder, balancing cost and high precision.

BORA HEXAPOD

BORA hexapod is a compact 6DOF parallel kinematics system for precision positioning with a resolution of 0.1 µm. It meets the high demands of optics and nanotechnology for resolution, accuracy, stability, and size. Its small dimensions enable integration into tight spaces, such as goniometers or optical alignment equipment. BORA can be used in any orientation: vertical, horizontal, or upside down.

SIRIUS HEXAPOD

SIRIUS is a high-precision hexapod designed for positioning 500 kg objects with exceptional resolution. Ideal for aeronautics, optics, and space applications, it meets the highest standards during testing and adjustments. With six degrees of freedom, it enables precise positioning in any orientation: vertical, horizontal, or upside down.

SOLANO HEXAPOD

SOLANO is an ultra-compact hexapod designed for precise positioning and calibration with a resolution down to 0.08 µm. It offers six degrees of freedom and meets high demands for size, resolution, precision, and stability. With a height of 104 mm and a 120 mm diameter, it integrates easily into narrow environments and operates in both vertical and horizontal orientations.

HEGOA HEXAPOD

With a load capacity of 50 kg, the HEGOA is the most compact of our dynamic hexapods. At just 42 cm tall, it is easy to install and use. Ideal for dynamic applications in naval, aerospace, automotive, optronics, research, and medical fields, it offers six degrees of freedom for precise testing and calibration. More affordable than larger models.

MISTRAL HEXAPOD

The Mistral hexapod, with efficient mechanical components, handles up to 1-ton loads and offers ±460 mm linear and ±40° angular travel. Designed initially for heave motion testing of boat hulls, it can reproduce the trajectories of land, naval, or air vehicles. Ideal for lab testing sensors, SATCOM antennas, and electro-optic systems intended for onboard use.
