2103VE Three Axis Rate Table

Ideal-Aerosmith-2103C Three Axis Positioning and Rate Table

The 2103VE Three Axis Rate Table is designed to provide precise position, rate and acceleration motion for the development and/or production testing of military and/or commercial antenna stabilization systems and/or heading sensors. 

The 2103VE Rate Table achieves accurate and reliable motion control with a servo-controlled system consisting of direct-drive brushless torque motors, precision absolute optical encoders, and the Ideal Aerosmith AERO 5 ELITE Motion Controller microprocessor-based three axis motion controller.
