GIM04 – 2-axis HV modular antenna positioner

Modular horizontal/vertical antenna positioner for mmWave and sub-THz antenna and radar testing with software controller in Python.

DUT size up to 38cm/15″.

Options for 3-axis (GIM04X) and extender mount (GIM04E).

ROBUST AND ACCURATE- All gears in GIM04 are made of precision machined Delrin material for higher strength, precision, and long-life span. Two compatible base types are available: one has standard resolution with 12-bit absolute encoder, the other one (H-Base) with a 20W motor has a 20-bit absolute encoder built-in.

POLARIZATION CONTROL OPTION- To configure GIM04 as a 3-axis positioner, a polarization axis controller called X-Pol can be added to GIM04 for models 230 and above. Look for GIM04X

ADJUSTABLE PLATFORM DEPTH- The DUT platform can be placed at 2 depths from rotation axis: This makes it easier to accommodate various DUT thickness and form factors.

SUB-THZ EXTENSION- For sub-THz applications, the E version of GIM04-300E has been specifically designed to mount frequency extenders on its DUT platform and probe mount.

MODULAR SIZE- GIM04 comes in 4 standard sizes all based on the same components. Upsizing and downsizing are possible as DUT requirements evolve over time.

CABLE ROUTING- To bring power, control, or RF to the DUT efficiently, GIM04 provides pass-thru channels at the center of each rotation axis and numerous anchor points along the path. This way, no connectors or slip rings are needed from source to DUT.
