Highlights
Why This Model
01Torque
Up to 475 Nm peak on the tilt axis
Nominal tilt torque reaches 275 Nm and peak 475 Nm, with 875 Nm available momentarily. That range carries a cooled long-range gimbal or a radar antenna rather than a light sensor.
- Pan torque 60–185 Nm nominal by configuration
- Axis speed 28 to 180°/s by configuration
02Dual-loop control
0.001° with the secondary encoder
The standard loop resolves 0.002° and points to 0.032°. Adding the secondary encoder closes a second loop on the output side and takes control accuracy to 0.001°.
- Zero backlash brushless servo drive
- Tilt configurable up to ±90°
03Service life
30 million revolutions without maintenance
The slip ring is rated for 30 million revolutions and carries 76 lines, including HD-SDI video and 1 Gbit Ethernet, so a continuously rotating installation needs no service window for the rotary joint.
- 76-line slip ring with 10 A power lines
- 16.1 kg unit, IP65, 120 km/h wind load
