2003VE Three Axis Rate Table

The 2003VE Series Three Axis Rate Tables provide precise angular position, rate and acceleration motion stimuli generally used for the development, production, and/or qualification testing of precision inertial packages such as Inertial Measurement Units (IMU), Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) and Attitude Heading Reference Systems (AHRS) or seeker/tracker/stabilization devices for applications in the aviation, aerospace, defense, space and marine industries. 

These tables are servo controlled, direct-drive table with an AERO 5 ELITE Controller. The Table System can be controlled locally via the controller interface, or remotely via a host PC. This test table system is designed for ease of operation, yet allows for the performance of complex motion profiles. 

The 2003VE Series Table Systems may be configured for limited rotation or with slip rings for unlimited axis rotation based on specific customer requirements. For limited rotation applications, these tables have wire wrap allowance that provides a cost-effective alternative to slip rings. Wire wrap test tables are designed for high reliability, minimal electrical noise and low maintenance.
