GIMBAL MOUNTS

A brochure from Aerotech Inc. presents the company’s line of motor-driven and manual optical mounts and gimbals for applications such as beam steering, target and star tracking, gyro and inertial sensor testing, and electro-optic calibration of seekers, sensors and optics. Providing specifications and product selection charts, the publication highlights the AOM360D series direct-drive gimbal mounts, which provide precise elevation-over-azimuth positioning, and the AOM130M motorized gear-drive types, which position optical components as large as 600 mm in diameter in both azimuth and elevation. A section on customization services depicts applications such as rapid prototyping, advanced laser machining and fiber Bragg manufacturing.
