IMBQ-S-130 Tracking Pedestal

The IMBQ-130 is a high-capacity tracking pedestal supporting up to 130 kg of optical payload. The support arm features an integrated bearing that provides extra support for two large optical payloads simultaneously. The primary camera sensor is centered directly over both the azimuth and elevation axes — there is no orbit and no parallax error. The secondary camera is centered directly over the azimuth axis with no orbit in azimuth. Dual encoders are used on both axes.
