SIRIUS is a high precision positioning hexapod. It allows the adjustment of 1 000 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…
