Quickly capture the image and hold it steady. In the harshest terrain, flight turbulence and the extremes of space, we deliver the high torque, super- steady motion systems you need to keep any mission on target.
\nElectro-Optical\/Infrared Systems require smooth, responsive motion that is perfectly coordinated between the azimuth and elevation axes. To capture and stabilize images, motion systems must withstand and counteract adverse forces such as the jolts of advancing land vehicles, the turbulence of aircraft in flight, and the extreme conditions encountered at sea or even in space.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][vc_column icons_position=”left”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″ icons_position=”left”][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_column_text]\u2022 Handheld systems

Depending on where it is deployed, the stabilized platform must have an engine designed for the rigors challenges of the respective environment. The engine powering the platform will also have its own specific performance or build construction requirements. Depending on the environment, some design considerations include:<\/p>\n

\u2022 High torque density and torque-to-volume ratio at relatively low speeds
\n\u2022 Robust Solid construction for reliable performance even in the harshest environments
\n\u2022 Frameless motors designed for direct integration into the platform, providing extremely high torque and precision even in the tightest spaces<\/p>\n

Even if the result (capturing and stabilizing targets) is the same, ambient conditions can have a major impact on the selection, design and implementation of the engine for a stabilized platform.<\/p>\n

ON LAND AND AT SEA<\/strong><\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_single_image image=”3742″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_column_text]In a highly dynamic combat environment, systems for guidance, tracking and targeting require platform stabilization against unexpected jolts, vibrations and impacts. Ship systems also need to withstand changing sea conditions. Mission success and potential safety of personnel are put at risk when these movements force the sensor or weapon to deviate from the target.<\/p>\n

Digital algorithms can be applied to digitally stabilize images in optical surveillance, tracking and targeting systems. However, this has many technical limits and consumes both power and bandwidth resources. The best approach is to eliminate the errors through the electromechanical system and to minimize the additional image processing. Stabilizing the mass of the sensor platform against the forces experienced by ground vehicles requires extremely high torque density.<\/p>\n

Engines with high torque density and high torque-to-volume ratio operate precisely and reliably under the most dynamic conditions. Motion systems that provide platform stabilization while minimizing additional digital processing can correct position errors in real time with smooth and precise movements.<\/p>\n

IN THE AIR<\/strong><\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_single_image image=”3744″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_column_text]Helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, and unmanned aerial vehicles require stabilized platforms for navigation, surveillance and\/or targeting. These platforms must withstand the acceleration, deceleration and orientation of the platform as well as unexpected atmospheric turbulence disturbances.<\/p>\n

Compared to land- and sea-based systems, however, airborne systems have to operate with a very limited power budget that is shared with many other control systems of the aircraft. In addition, the overall size and weight of the platform and its moving components should be practically minimal. These size, weight and power limits require highly specialized motion systems that are compact and perfectly matched to the application.<\/p>\n

In the case of aerial applications, exceptional torque density and continuous, precise control are required in a small and lightweight size. In these applications, auger motors that are compact, lightweight, low-voltage and optimized for maximum torque are ideal.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″ icons_position=”left”][vc_single_image image=”3746″ img_size=”medium” alignment=”center”][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ icons_position=”left”][vc_single_image image=”3748″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_empty_space hide_on_wide=”” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
