AQUILON large amplitude hexapod, in a nutshell
A hexapod is a platform with a parallel structure that facilitates motion across six degrees of freedom (DOF), making it suitable for testing and calibrating systems or simulating dynamic environments.
AQUILON hexapod has the largest payload capability as well as travel range (movement amplitude) capability in our product range. It is capable of moving up to 6,000 kg payloads for the standard version, and even up to 10,000 kg payloads for the boosted model, with large amplitude, high speed and high acceleration. It is heavily used in the naval industry, for sloshing test and heavy swell simulation.
It can also be paired with a measuring hexapod to monitor the motion of the actuators and the mobile platform’s movements.
