Description

The Gx series motorized Cardan joint systems by Zolix are designed to meet the requirements of high-precision, highly repetitive adjustments of position and direction. These systems utilize multi-rotation joints, allowing objects fixed on the top table to rotate around the X-axis, Y-axis, or Z-axis separately.

The main body materials of these systems are made of hard black anodic-oxidation aluminum alloy, providing a nice appearance. The systems feature a through hole at the center of the stage, enabling unlimited rotating motions using conductive metal sliding rings.

They also offer optional external positioning sensors and stainless steel rotary shafts with fine grinding techniques. The modular design ensures easy maintenance, and customer-design proposals are available.
