More Product Information
MVG Performance Series heavy duty AZ/EL/AZ positioners represent the latest generation of multi-axis rotary positioning subsystems with turntable diameters up to 70.9 in (1,800 mm). They offer enhanced capabilities and improved performance relative to size and incorporate new engineering advances.
Very useful where space is restricted, the EMC chamber EMC-MC will settle into almost any office space. Its small overall size results from the use of our modular SmartShield chamber lined with our AEPH HyPyr-LossTM absorber technology requiring less volumetric space than in a traditional chamber. This mini compact EMC chamber is applicable in EMC pre compliance and general Research & Development RF testing.
Flexibility
- Different substrate carriers for wafers up to 200 mm or single dies
- Probe cards and/or up to eight positioners
- Optional thermal chuck (-60°C to 300°C) and pressure regulation
- Accessories available, such as black bodies and optical motion analysis tools
- Optional upgrade for 300 mm wafer
- Designed for industrial environments
- Covers wide range of measurements (I-V, C-V, RF, MEMS, OPTO)
- Ideal for small structures

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.
These MVG-Orbit/FR Legacy Series EL/AZ Positioners provide accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity of 2 axes, 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.
Typically, the unit includes the body, precise slew bearings, a DC motor, gear reducer, encoder/synchro, and limit switch assembly. The turntable surface is designed with a threaded mounting hole pattern for ease of use. A Safe/Operate switch is included to ensure safety.
The MVG-Orbit/FR performance series has recently been expanded to include the AL-428X series of medium-duty, two axes positioners. Thanks to their low profile design and advanced drive mechanism, these symmetrical EL/AZ positioners ensure accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity.
Their rugged and straightforward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation, yielding the best size and weight / performance ratio. This series includes a counter weight option which improves overall system stability and accuracy while allowing for higher DUT loads.
Typically, the unit includes the main body, precise slew bearings, DC motors, gear reducers, encoder and limit switch assemblies. The antenna interface mounting plate surface is designed with a threaded mounting hole pattern for ease of use. A large variety of options is available for this ORBIT/FR standard product family. See the Options pages in the Positioners Overview or on the website for slip rings, rotary joints, high precision encoders, speed options and more.
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.
A Semi Anechoic EMC Chamber with 3-meter test range ensuring EMC compliance for Emission and Immunity testing. Ferrite and hybrid pyramidal EMC absorbers are combined in a unique pattern within a SmartShield high performance chamber. Operating at a 3m test distance, this chamber is compliant to ANSI C63.4/CISPR-16-1-4 with a Test Volume diameter of 1 to 2 meters.
