6DOF Active Control Suspension: SACSO

Applications

 > Aeronautical

• Validation of pilot algorithms for simulator e.g. helicopter landing on a carrier on the sea

 > Space

• 6 DOF platform for vibrations testing for space equipment.

 >  Optics

• Positioning system for the focus of laser beams.

 > Automotive, Railways, Naval

• 6 DOF working machine.

 > Medical

• Remote 6 DOF handling system; endoscopy.

 > Civil Engineering

• Robots designed for building.

Keywords

• Active control, 6-DOF, Cable suspension, Remote handling.

Advantages

• World leader in active control force positioning systems
• Unique device controlled by wires to have 6 DOF

Testing

• Ability to achieve active 6DOF control using SACSO.
• By use of high-tech onboard electronics, ability to measure acceleration and forces on model.
• Skills:
  • Able to modify or take into consideration change in mass and inertia (propulsion integration).
  • Modify direction or amplitude of gravity.
  • Able to separate directions of movement, e.g. allow only movement around X and Y axis, or just roll movement.
