Enhanced Antenna Positioner

Filed under:
This positioner design has all of the virtues of the all weather series, but with more than twice the torque. This enabled a greater variety of antenna solutions to be considered. This positioner was designed specifically to house an array of reflectors.

Features

  • Optical tracking
  • Example shows an array of two 1.4m (2-6 GHz, 6-18 GHz) reflectors and one 0.6m (2-18 GHz) antenna reflector
  • Touch Screen control
  • Other feeds, including RHCP & LHCP, and different reflector sizes can be supplied
  • Environmentally sealed
  • Equipped with brakes on all axes in occurrence of power failure
