The Type 11 biaxial gimbal as shown consists of two Type 1 actuators in an orthogonal combination. The Type 1 actuators can be provided with a variety of options. These gimbals can be used for two-axis antennae or solar array drives.
The Type 55 biaxial gimbal assembly is a robust two-axis gimbal which is right-sized for supporting and positioning the majority of larger payloads. It is based on the Moog Type 5 rotary incremental actuator. The gimbal can be configured for limited rotation, with the inclusion of range-defining hard stops on the actuator outputs, or, for continuous rotation on one or both axes with the integration of a slip ring assembly.
The Type 33 Biaxial Gimbal is of a size appropriate for many antennas, and it has become by far our most popular Antenna Pointing Mechanism configuration. Available in either Elevation/Azimuth or X/Y, these units have proven their reliability and versatility many times over.
Electrohydrostatic (EHA) actuators offer highly reliable, two-fault tolerant steering control solutions. With EHA actuation, the motor works through gears and the output of a pump directly actuates a conventional hydraulic piston, providing enhanced reliability for future man-rated space vehicles.
Electrohydraulic (EH) actuators produce force by a hydraulic power unit (HPU) which includes electric motors, pumps, reservoirs, relief valves, check valves, and associated plumbing. They enable precise control by employing electrohydraulic servovalves, converting current input signals into controlled fluid flow.
Moog has developed a line of Electromechanical Actuators (EMAs) designed to be rugged for harsh environments. The Commercial EMAs are capable of covering a range of performance characteristics with configurable design parameters.
Electromechanical (EM) actuation is a proven solution in challenging space applications. Moog's systems incorporate actuators, controllers, servodrives, and servomotors. They offer both specialized and off-the-shelf solutions to meet customer needs.
These actuators are designed for military ground vehicles, providing stabilization and pointing accuracy for applications like gun and radar elevation.
Moog's electromechanical rotary actuators are used for precise control in vehicle applications, capable of handling heavy payloads and high-stress environments.
From basic flight training to high fidelity full flight simulation our control loading meets the highest level of certification from accredited global agencies.
