Rugged Pan & Tilt Positioners

QPT 200/500

The QPT-200 and QPT-500 Series of Pan & Tilt positioners are designed for a wide variety of applications. They are rugged and durable enough for virtually any environment. The QPT-200 and QPT-500 can handle payloads up to 200 or 500 lb-ft of torque, respectively, making each suitable for a wide range of sensors. Multiple models are available to fit your needs. Integrated Control (IC) units can communicate via networked PC or separate controller. Analog units are inexpensive solutions where simple command and control are required without a PC. The Sentry line takes our products to the next level by integrating Stepper Motors into the design for higher accuracy and speed control.
