The new MVG-Orbit/FR compact, low profile light duty positioners provide accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity in the positioning of light duty antennas under test. Their compact and low-profile design optimizes space in test configurations as well as high operational performance, yielding the best size and weight/performance ratio.

This compact EMC Chamber with a 3 meter test range will settle into test areas of limited space while continuing to produce exceptional performance for EMC measurement. Emission test volumes of up to 1.5m are accommodated with very repeatable results. Suitable for EMC pre-compliance emissions and EMC compliance immunity testing.

This unique dual-axis positioner is particularly suited for testing direction-sensing antennas. The virtual elevation axis enables rotation of the DUT around its phase center, placing the mechanical support system invariably behind the DUT. This feature maintains the center of the DUT in one place, while eliminating scattering and interference from the positioning structure.

Pylons are stationary metal Device Under Test support structures designed to minimize measurement signal backscattering.

Their shapes, sizes, and construction specifications are determined by requirements such as maximum DUT size, its mechanical properties, and minimum rotator size.

The MVG-Orbit/FR Legacy Series Polarization Positioners provide accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity for the positioning of very large devices in test configurations. Their rugged yet straight-forward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation, yielding the best size and weight/performance ratio.
