Precision motion testing demands multi-axis coordination, high-speed response, and unwavering accuracy. This three-axis turntable delivers all three.

 Exceptional Positioning Precision

±5 arc-second angular positioning accuracy and ±3 arc-second repeatability on all three axes ensure reliable, consistent data for demanding calibration tasks. Orthogonality between rotational axes is maintained within ±5 arc-seconds, with three-axis concurrency within a ⌀0.5 mm sphere.

 Wide Speed Range with Superior Stability

Inner frame reaches 500°/s, middle frame 400°/s, and outer frame 300°/s, with three-axis synchronized rate at 100°/s. Rate accuracy holds at 5×10⁻⁵ over 360° average, 5×10⁻⁴ over 10° average, and 5×10⁻³ over 1° average, eliminating motion-induced artifacts.

 High Dynamic Response

Maximum angular accelerations reach 300°/s² on the inner frame, 200°/s² on the middle frame, and 100°/s² on the outer frame, enabling realistic attitude maneuver simulation.

 Generous Payload and Precision Work Surface

Supporting 20 kg loads with ⌀300 mm × 200 mm maximum dimensions, the ⌀360 mm stainless steel table maintains 0.02 mm flatness and 0.02 mm axial runout. M6 threaded holes on a 25 mm grid pattern provide flexible fixture mounting.

 Unrestricted Continuous Rotation

360° continuous rotation on each axis eliminates mechanical stops, enabling unlimited multi-turn testing without constraints.

 Reliable Signal Transmission

30-channel slip ring assembly features 14 single-core channels at 3 A each and 16 twisted-pair shielded channels at 2 A each, ensuring clean power and data transfer throughout continuous rotation.

 Intelligent Control Software

Automatic computer-based status control with real-time data acquisition, processing, and graphical display. RS-232 standard serial interface enables seamless integration into existing test systems.

 Compact and Portable Design

At approximately 140 kg, this system offers laboratory-grade performance in a footprint suitable for various test environments.

 Applications

Inertial navigation calibration, gyroscope and accelerometer characterization, optoelectronic device verification, aerospace sensor testing, and precision attitude determination systems.

 A Comprehensive Three-Axis Solution

By unifying multi-axis coordination, high-speed response, and intelligent control, this turntable delivers the performance engineers need for advanced sensor development and production validation.
