Manual adjustment hexapod
Sonora is a manual hexapod for the adjustment and static positioning of high payloads following the 6 degrees of freedom (3 translations and 3 rotations).
The hexapod Sonora allows static positioning. Sonora was created to manually adjust high payloads with high accuracy (max 500 kg for 50 µm resolution).
SYMETRIE realised a specific Sonora adjusting 17 t payload with 0.5 mm accuracy. (See applications).
