Science and Research

Motors and controls are used in many research applications. Our motion control systems serve the special properties and performance characteristics needed in demanding scientific experiments:

• Bespoke motor designs and geometries
• Highly accuracte direct drives (picometer and microrad)
• Direktdrives, torque motors with large diameter, >1m and torque, >100.000Nm
• 3D-torque motors (spherical)
• Extremely fast motors
• Precise time and phase synchronisation between many axes
• Vacuum compatibility
• Radiation resistance
• etc.

 Interesting applications:

• Astonomy, in the optical and infra-red spectrum
• Radio-astronomy
• Semiconductor physics - chopper systems
• Medical research - Nystagmografy and Human training centrifuges
• Manipulators for radio-acrive environments
• Collimators for the LHC at CERN
