PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Precision motion.High pointing accuracy.

The FDA-332-TCC-STD is intended for development, production, in-process testing, calibration, and final inspection of inertial components and instruments. The catalog lists high-precision MEMS sensors at FOG performance level, medium and large INSs, IMUs and IRUs belonging to the FOGs class, as well as stabilized optical sights or star trackers. The product is designed with an emphasis on user-friendliness and competitive pricing.

The product features three axes and three degrees of freedom: inner roll, middle pitch, and outer yaw, together with a liquid carbon dioxide (LCO2) temperature chamber. LCO2 coolant flows through a gantry and enters the middle axis directly. The middle and outer axes are equipped with stow locks for safe loading and unloading of the UUT. Precision pre-loaded angular contact ball bearings permit load capacities up to 15 kg. All systems include the necessary interconnecting cables and mating connectors for the customer interface. Using T-Nut levelers, the rate table can be aligned in two directions.

Catalog fidelity note: values and capabilities on this page are based on ACCUDYNA FDA-332-TCC-STD, Version F - August 2024. Specifications are representative of standard systems and may be tailored for customer-specific requirements.
