SIRIUS is a high precision positioning hexapod. It allows the adjustment of 500 kg objects with high resolution. SIRIUS hexapod meets the highest standards during testing and adjustments phases for aeronautics, optics or space.
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.
SIRIUS hexapod can be used in any orientation: vertical, horizontal, upside down…
