Product catalog summary
Overview
The KUBAN hexapod is a high-resolution, small-sized hexapod designed for precise motion and positioning applications. It features a height of 600 mm, a resolution of 1.5 µrad, and a payload capacity of up to 500 kg. It is equipped with absolute linear encoders and offers a resolution of 0.2 µm for Tx and Ty movements.

Key Features
  • Height: 600 mm
  • Resolution: 1.5 µrad
  • Repeatability: ± 2.5 µrad
  • Payload Capacity: Up to 500 kg
  • Absolute Linear Encoders
  • Resolution Tx, Ty: 0.2 µm

Applications
  • Synchrotron: Mirror or chamber supports
  • Optics
The hexapod is used for positioning mirrors inside vacuum chambers with high precision, ensuring stability and avoiding damage through an inclination limit switch.

Kuban hexapod-1

KUBAN hexapod High resolution hexapod small size Height 600 mm Resolution 1.5 µrad Repeatability ± 2.5 µrad Payload capacity up to 500 kg Absolute linear encoders Resolution Tx, Ty: 0.2 µm Synchrotron: mirror or chamber supports ■ This KUBAN hexapod aligns a mirror inside a vacuum chamber on LUCIA beamline at Synchrotron SOLEIL. A high stability over time is crucial. KUBAN hexapod aligns a polarimeter with high precision in a short time. This installation made by TOYAMA can be moved to be used on different beamlines at MAX IV Laboratory synchrotron. KUBAN hexapod positions a mirror inside of a vacuum chamber with high resolution. To be sure to avoid harming any part due to an unexpected over range, an inclination limit switch is installed under the hexapod mobile platform and stops the motion if the maximum roll angle is reached.
