JORAN hexapod High resolution ultra heavy payload large size High stability Resolution 0.5 µrad Large payload capacity 1500 kg (more upon request) Absolute linear encoders Synchrotrons: mirror or chamber supports ■ JORAN hexapod size has been adapted to the beam height of the Australian Synchrotron. Customized JORAN hexapods with extra Rz rotations calibrate the segments of the primary mirror of ESO ELT telescope at Safran REOSC. JORAN actuators at LBL are longer to enable a ± 12.5° rotation around Z. This JORAN hexapod has also been customized to support a 3.2 tons payload. JORAN hexapod has been developed in collaboration with ESRF synchrotron to position mirrors with very high resolution.
