How to Choose

Selection Guides

What decides the choice within each product family, and how the models compare on those values.

Mast Systems

Height and payload are linked: on any one mast the rated payload falls as the extended height rises. Decide the extended height you need first, then the load at that height. The configuration table on the product page gives the part number where the two meet.

Model	Extended Height	Payload Capacity	Actuation Type	Weight
MEM10Ultra Stable Electromechanical Mast System	2200–7200 mm	100–125 kg	Motorized, individual telescopic screw shafts with 4-way keyways	72–219 kg
MES01Ultra Compact Electromechanical Mast System	1160–1500 mm	5–10 kg	Motorized, threaded rod	4–8 kg
MES10Locked Electromechanical Mast System	3005–10,005 mm	45–192 kg	Motorized with flange locking system	—
MES20Modular Electromechanical Mast System	2500–14,000 mm	41–78 kg	Motorized, patented hybrid threaded shaft drive	32–85 kg
MMS20Modular Manual Mast System	2500–14,000 mm	21–58 kg	Manual, patented hybrid trapezoidal screw and steel wire actuator	32–85 kg
MMT10Ultra Portable Tripod/Mast System	2000–15,000 mm	10–60 kg	Manual push or cable driven winch	15–42 kg incl. tripod
MMT20Heavy Duty Portable Tripod/Mast System	2000–15,000 mm	35–90 kg	Manual push or cable driven winch	32–92 kg incl. tripod

Pan-Tilt & Positioning Systems

All models

Three values decide the unit: the torque the payload demands, the angular speed the mission needs, and the pointing accuracy. Speed and torque work against each other within one product — the configuration table shows which part number sits where on that trade.

Model	Pan Nominal Torque	Axis Speed	Positioning Accuracy	Weight
PED08Compact Electromechanical Pan-Tilt	30–85 Nm by configuration	6–48 °/s	0.12 °	9.0 kg (10.5 kg for A1-B1)
PED10Ultra Precision Electromechanical Pan-Tilt	60–185 Nm by configuration	28–180 °/s	0.032–0.038 °	16.1 kg (19.5 kg for A1-B1)
PED12Stabilized Electromechanical Pan-Tilt	60–185 Nm by configuration	28–180 °/s	0.028–0.038 °	16.1 kg (17.5 kg for A1-B1)
PEG03Lightweight Goniometer	—	—	0.056° (1 mil) on both axes	< 3.0 kg
PES10Ultra Precision Electromechanical Rotator	185–1032 Nm	25 / 10 / 6 / 4.5 °/s by model	0.042–0.065 °	9.5–18.1 kg
PMD01Lightweight Manual Pan-Tilt	—	—	—	< 1.4 kg

EO/IR Imager Systems

All models

Detection range follows from detector resolution and focal length together, not from either alone. The channel count follows from the mission: day only, day and night, or with ranging and designation.

Model	Thermal Detector Resolution	Thermal Spectral Band	Laser Rangefinder Range	Weight
SEB20Multi Channel (EO-MWIR-LRF-LD) Thermal Imager	1280 × 1024 px	Cooled MWIR 3.7–4.8 µm	5–32,000 m	18.4 kg without pan-tilt unit
SEG10Dual Channel (EO-LWIR) Stabilized Gimbal System	640 × 512 px	Uncooled LWIR 8–14 µm	—	4.4 kg
SEG12Multi Channel (EO-LWIR-LRF) Stabilized Gimbal System	640 × 512 px	Uncooled LWIR	5–4500 m	4.6 kg
SEG14Multi Channel (EO-LWIR-LRF) Stabilized Gimbal System	640 × 512 (1280 × 1024 optional)	Uncooled LWIR	Up to 32,000 m	< 8.0 kg
SEG20Multi Channel (EO-MWIR-LRF) Gimbal System	640 × 512 px	Cooled MWIR 3–5 µm	5–32,000 m	20.8 kg

Tripods & Deployment Supports

All models

A tripod is chosen against the weight of the unit it carries and the working height required. Portability and capacity pull in opposite directions across the range.

Model	Extended Height	Payload Capacity	Weight
TMH10Heavy Duty Tripod	995–1250 mm	150 kg	14.7–18.4 kg
TML10Ultra Lightweight Tripod	975–1450 mm	25–35 kg	1.95–2.5 kg
TMM10Medium Duty Tripod	864–1266 mm	40–60 kg	4.3–5.2 kg

Height buys range; deflection gives it back
A 15 m mast widens the horizon — but a few centimetres of deflection at the top become tens of metres of miss distance at 5 km. That conversion is what the design is really about.
Control software verified before the prototype: model-based design and HIL
If the mechanical hardware arrives in six months, the software doesn't have to wait for it. But you do have to know how far the model can be trusted.
The LOS jitter budget: why 50 µrad is harder than it looks
An electro-optical system's range is often limited not by its optics but by its stabilisation. Breaking jitter down by source shows exactly where a design is won or lost.
