BREVA- Precision positioning hexapods by Symétrie

Breva hexapod

HIGH ACCURACY ADJUSTMENT HEXAPOD

BREVA hexapod has been specially designed to provide high angular accuracy. It allows angular positioning of objects like samples, probes or sensors with a resolution of 0.5 µm or 2.5 µrad.

As a reminder, the hexapod is a platform with a parallel structure enabling very high precision positioning of objects in space according to the 6 degrees of freedom.

BREVA hexapod can be used in any orientation: vertical, horizontal, upside down…
