Parallel-kinematic design for six degrees of freedom making it significantly more compact and stiff than serial-kinematic
systems, higher dynamic range, no moved cables: Higher reliability, reduced friction

Connecting the Hexapod to the C-887.5xx Controller
1. Read and observe the following installation instructions:
• Instructions in the user manual of the Hexapod, especially sections „General Notes on
Installation“, „Determining the Permissible Load and Working Space“, „Attaching the Snap-On
Ferrite Suppressor“, „Grounding the Hexapod“, „Mounting the Hexapod on a Surface“ and
„Affixing the Load to the Hexapod“.
• Instructions in the user manual of the Hexapod controller, especially sections „General Notes on
Installation“ and „Determining the Working Space and Permissible Load of the Hexapod“.
All figures show the Hexapod in the reference position. Dimensions in mm. Note that the decimal places are
separated by a comma in the drawings.
The (0,0,0) coordinates refer to the origin
of the XYZ coordinate system. When the
default settings of the Hexapod controller
are used and the Hexapod is in the
reference position, the pivot point is
located at the origin of the XYZ
coordinate system.
* The travel ranges of the individual coordinates (X, Y, Z, θX, θY, θZ) are interdependent. The
data for each axis in this table shows its maximum travel, where all other axes are at their zero
positions. If the other linear or rotational coordinates are not zero, the available travel may be
less.

Ambient Conditions and Classifications
Degree of pollution: 2
Transport temperature: –25°C to +85°C
Storage temperature: 0 °C to 70 °C
Humidity: Maximum relative humidity of 80% at temperatures
of up to 31°C, linearly decreasing until relative
humidity of 50% at 40°C
* Pin assignment of the C-887.5xx Hexapod controller. Since not all signals are required for all Hexapod models, some
pins may be not assigned with your Hexapod model.
