TETRAXE Configuration Example

TETRAXE is the perfect compact platform on which to build complex manipulators. By combining the XYZT manipulation provided by TETRAXE with magnetcially coupled rotary feedthroughs, service collars and a range of shaft options, multi-axis manipulators can be configured to suit the required application.

Key Features

  • TETRAXE provides the perfect platform to build complex manipulators
  • CF40, CF63 & CF100 flange options
  • Z translation to 300mm
  • X&Y manipulation up to +/-15mm

TTX63 + Service Collar + Rotation

In this example a manually actuated TETRAXE (part number: TTX63-250-H) with 250mm stroke and +/-15mm X & Y motion has been combined with  a service collar and magnetically-coupled rotary feedthrough to provide rotation of a shaft.
 

Configuration Specification:

X&Y Motion

Manually actuated +/- 15mm X & Y travel.
 

Z Translation

Manually actuated 250mm Z translation.
 

Tilt

Manual +/- 2 degree tilt integrated in to the mounting flange.
 

Rotation 1 (Primary Shaft Rotation)

Manually actuated continuous 360 degree rotation of the shaft.
