More Product Information
The AL-48060 series controllers drive up to 6 axes sequentially. These popular, programmable controllers provide manual front panel control or remote control of rotary and linear positioners. Optional interfaces are available for position transducers such as absolute encoders, Inductosyn®, and inclinometers.
The MVG-Orbit/FR Legacy Series Polarization Positioners provide accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity for the positioning of devices in test configurations. Their sturdy and straight-forward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation, yielding the best size and weight/performance ratio.Turntable diameters up to 30.0 in (762 mm) .
ULTRA UHC series polypropylene based broadband electromagnetic absorbers are the latest technology for RF test applications.
The polypropylene material has a highly uniform carbon density, throughout the material, which provides for more predictable results with no discontinuities.
It is the unique production technology which is the critical factor in achieving the highest electromagnetic reflectivity performance in an antenna measurement anechoic chamber or an emc chamber.
As an international EMC chamber supplier, we provide these polypropylene broadband absorbers for EMC test chambers worldwide.
The MVG-Orbit/FR Legacy Series Azimuth Positioners provide accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity. Their rugged yet straight-forward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation, yielding the best size and weight/performance ratio.
The AL-9504-2 Emergency Stop (E-Stop) Unit provides a central connection point for external emergency stop panic buttons and positioner controllers that are located throughout the system. In the event of an emergency stop, the AL-9504-2 will command the appropriate positioner controller to disconnect motor drive power on all axes.
MVG light duty EL/AZ positioners provide accurate rotation, velocity, and direction with platform sizes up to 12.6 x 12.6 in (320 x 320 mm). Their rugged yet straight-forward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation.
These AZ/EL/AZ positioners provide accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity in the positioning of light-duty antennas under test. Their compact and low-profile design optimizes space in test configurations as well as high operational performance, yielding the best size and weight performance ratio.
Their rugged and straightforward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation.
The MVG-Orbit/FR performance series has recently been expanded to include medium-duty, dual-axes positioners: the new AL-438X series. Thanks to their low profile design and advanced drive mechanism, these symmetrical AZ/EL positioners ensure accurate, balanced rotation, and
Their rugged yet straight-forward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation, yielding the best size and weight / performance ratio. This particular series provides a counter weight option which improves overall system stability and accuracy while allowing for higher DUT loads. A large variety of options is available for this ORBIT/FR standard product family.
AL-48000 model towers are suited for medium duty applications with an operating load of up to 1,000 lbs (455 kg). This series is available with either a manual hand-wheel or motorized linear offset slide. The mast (vertical or inclined) is available in fiberglass or aluminum construction.
