AQUILON - Motion hexapods by Symétrie

Aquilon hexapod

A POWERFUL HEXAPOD

Aquilon can reproduce movements with a load of up to 6 tons.

As a reminder, a hexapod is a platform with a parallel structure that can reproduce movements in 6 degrees of freedom, for testing and calibrating systems, or for simulating dynamic situations.

It can also be combined with a measuring hexapod to monitor the movements of the actuators and the moving platform.
