PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Large-scale testing.Ultra-accurate motion.

The FDD-221-HD is intended for development, large-scale production, in-process testing, calibration, and final inspection of inertial components and instruments. The catalog specifically lists large IMUs, IRUs, AHRSs, and INSs belonging to FOG, RLG, and mechanical classes.

The platform provides two axes and two degrees of freedom: inner roll and outer pitch. The outer axis uses a stow lock to support safe loading and unloading of the UUT. Precision pre-loaded angular contact ball bearings permit load capacities up to 50 kg. All systems include the necessary interconnecting cables and mating connectors for customer interface. Wedge levelers allow alignment in two directions.

Catalog fidelity note: values and capabilities on this page are based on ACCUDYNA FDD-221-HD, Version F · August 2024. Specifications are representative of standard systems and may be tailored for customer-specific requirements.
