The EH118 EMC Horn combines stable gain performance and low VSWR with wide band frequency operation. The horn is single linearly polarized with excellent cross-polar discrimination. The unique horn design suppresses any possible excitation of higher order modes in the aperture and maintains a well-defined smooth radiation pattern in the direction of the boresight axis throughout the operational bandwidth.

• Piezo stages with continuous 360° rotary motion 
• Mounted mirrors, laser and two-axis base 
• Each rotary stage only 11.75 x 21.9 x 16 mm 
• Closed-loop controller embedded in each stage 
  • No separate electronics needed 
  • 3.3 VDC input 
  • Direct digital input of motion commands ( I2C, SPI, or UART) 
• Angular resolution ~21.9727 mdeg closed loop 
  • Built-in absolute position sensor 
• Millisecond step and settle times 
  • 0.5 deg in 16 ms closed loop 
  • 0.5 deg in 1.2 ms open loop 
• Holds position with zero power and no jitter

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 MVG-Orbit/FR Legacy Series Polarization Positioners provide accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity for the positioning of devices in test configurations. Their sturdy and straight-forward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation, yielding the best size and weight/performance ratio.Turntable diameters up to 30.0 in (762 mm) .

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.
