Flagship Build

Multi-axis optical gimbal mechanism

Fixture zeroing block

Custom rapid prototyping fixture engineered for repeatable multi-axis milling.

Stress path verification

Load testing rig built to validate tolerance stack-up and structural load paths.

Sub-micron optical alignment assembly

Designed around strict kinematic constraints and rapid functional prototyping. Finite element analysis confirmed minimal deflection under thermal loads.

Engineering Philosophy

Designing around real fabrication limits rather than CAD ideals.

System Architecture

Modular hardware builds

Independent assemblies engineered for extreme service conditions.

Actuation
Thermal
Chassis

High-torque robotic joint

Liquid-cooled electronics enclosure

Formed sheet metal chassis

Planetary gearbox integrated into a lightweight structural housing machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum.

Optimized bend radius and localized reinforcement plates to eliminate resonant frequency modes.

CFD-optimized internal cooling channels milled directly into the chassis baseplate for maximum thermal dissipation.
