The HXP50-MECA High Precision 6-Axis Hexapod is a parallel kinematic motion device with a 125 mm diameter platform and 5 kg load capacity. It provides six degrees of freedom: X, Y, Z, pitch, roll, and yaw for an effective solution to complex motion applications that demand high load capacity and accuracy in up to six independent axes. The HXP50-MECA hexapod is compatible with our HXP50-ELEC-D
controller. Hexapods, in general, are high priced and complex devices that are difficult to implement. The HXP50-MECA, on the contrary, is not only affordable but extremely easy to use and re-configure.
High Precision Actuators
The quality of actuators has a critical impact on the overall motion performance of a hexapod. Drawing on over 55 years of Newport's expertise in actuators, the top plate of HXP hexapods is driven by 6 industry-proven, high-performance actuators with encoder feedback at the leadscrew nut to provide precise minimum incremental motion, low backlash and fast speed.
Innovative Actuator Joints
Of equal importance to overall motion performance as the actuators are the 12 joints that connect these actuators to the base plate and moving top plate. Rather than using ordinary universal joints, HXP hexapods utilize ceramic spherical joints to ensure constant preload over full travel, enhancing rigidity that reduces material stress, while improving performance and avoiding corrosion. The result is a hexapod that is more rigid with higher load capacity compared to other similarly sized hexapods.
