MOTIONMASTER-6 (STEWART PLATFORM)

Stewart Platform is a parallel robotic system, could be used for advanced robotics concepts in academia and various applications in industry. It has a default configuration for payload, size and user software.

OVERVIEW

Motionmaster-6 is a 6-DOF system shake table (Stewart Platform), which offer realistic simulations at six-axis owing to the high sensitivity of linear actuators, gyroscope, and a three-axis accelerometer. With the accessible and user-friendly components, it is suitable to simulate real systems such as flight simulators, machine tool technology, crane technology, mechanical bulls, precision platform positioning such as telescopes, antennas, and orthopedic surgery. Every unit of the Stewart platform is controllable independently with the modifiable open-source software and users can understand the effects of different controller types on the system. With the extensive courseware, users have the opportunity to learn essential aspects of robotics and easily cover controller design concepts.

FAQs

The Stewart Platform is a 6-Degrees of Freedom precision parallel robotic positioner system. It is capable of moving in X, Y, Z and Roll, Pitch, Yaw coordinates.
A Stewart Platform is used for positioning its upper or lower plate using its electromechanical actuators. Typical applications are alignment, leveling or placement of materials or executing a repeatable / random motion such as vibration or oscillation pattern to an object mounted on either of its plates.
6-DOF. These are X,Y,Z, rotation around X, Y, Z ie. roll, pitch, yaw.
Product comes with the controller and software. Courseware is optional with choice of the programming language.
A custom motion pattern can be implemented via a scenario script or through importing a CSV file with timestamp and coordinates data. Necessary information is provided in the User's Manual.
A complimentary online support session is available after the delivery of the products. Standard support is provided via the phone, e-mail or remote desktop connection.
