NOTUS - Motion hexapods by Symétrie

Notus

A DYNAMIC AND COMPACT HEXAPOD

Notus hexapod is a compact and structurally robust motion generator. It is also more affordable than larger hexapods.

Notus P has a payload capacity of 200 kg (P for payload).

Notus V hexapod is a faster version (V for velocity) with a payload capacity limited to 100 kg. Speeds are given in the datasheet.

These hexapods are ideal for research laboratories or for applications in medical (neurology, kinesiology), naval (swell simulation, sloshing, wave basins), aerospace, automotive (sensors for autonomous vehicles, AdBlue tanks testing) or optronics (stabilization of electro-optics systems testing) fields.
