Features and variations
- Modular system design Modular mounting, interfaces and control software allow easy integration of Milexia’s full range of feeds and customer-specified equipment with minimal integration effort.
- High-reliability construction Carbon fibre reflector, struts and mounts combined with a powerful dual-axis cycloidal zero-backlash gearbox, designed to withstand harsh operational environments.
- Optimised reflector optics Micro-shaped reflector optics deliver optimal performance for both Prime Focus and Cassegrain feeds.
- Exceptional surface accuracy Carbon fibre lay-up tailored to RF frequency requirements, achieving surface deviation RMS <0.25 mm (frequency dependent).
- Precise pointing and tracking Equipped with 26-bit absolute encoders (0.000005° resolution) and closed-loop power tracking for maximum link performance.
- OpenAPI control software Designed for standalone operation or seamless integration into larger ground station networks, with software packages activated based on connected equipment.
