The IMBQ-HP-200 is IMAGO's heavy-lift tracking pedestal, supporting a rated payload of 200 kg on land (100 kg at sea). It is designed for large-aperture multi-sensor systems requiring high pointing accuracy.
The system delivers 36-arcsecond pointing accuracy using absolute-referenced incremental inductive encoders with 10,240,000 counts per rotation (0.13 arcsecond resolution). The tracking camera is centred over the azimuth and elevation axes to eliminate parallax errors.
