Design of a Hexapod for the Phased Experimental Demonstrator MSc Mechatronic Engineering Mr. Frank Janse van Vuuren Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Dr. Y. Kim Co-Supervisor: Prof. K. Schreve

OBJECTIVE 2

Objective  Design a Hexapod mount to position a 3.69 m antennae at the PED (Phased Experimental Demonstrator). The PED is used as a testbed for the KAT project and also used to educate and train students. Project Activities :  Model  Simulation  Controller Design  Construct a scale model  Programme a Graphical User Interface  Verify the performance capabilities 3

Hexapod Mount (Stewart Platform)  Positioning mechanism consisting of base and platform.  Linear actuator legs.  Leg lengths change length to alter the orientation of the platform. 4 Figure 1: Stewart Platform [1]  Stewart_Platform_up_down_2.wmv Stewart_Platform_up_down_2.wmv

Alternative Alt-Azimuth Mount is currently widely used in telescopic positioning. Advantages of the Hexapod Mount:  High Load Carrying capacity  High Stiffness  Precise positioning Accuracy Disadvantages  Small workspace  Complex control  Singularities 5 Figure 2: Altitude- Azimuth Mount [2] (top) Figure 3: Hexapod Mount [3] (bottom)
