3 DOF MOTION PLATFORMS PROVIDE PITCH, ROLL AND HEAVE
A 3 DOF (Degree of Freedom) motion platform is a device that simulates motion in 2 axis of rotation (pitch, roll). and one axis of translation (heave). The platform is engineered to replicate the motions experienced by an object or vehicle in these three directions, creating an immersive simulation experience.
It’s important to note that this description of 3DOF motion platforms specifically pertains to pitch, roll and heave. For other combinations of motion axes, we offer custom solutions tailored to meet your specific needs. Please visit our custom applications page for more information.
Our 3DOF motion platforms consist of a base (upper platform) that is mounted on motors, which are used to control the movements of the platform. The motors are controlled by a motion controller, which receives signals from the control system (computer) to generate the desired motion.
OUR 3DOF MOTION PLATFORMS BOAST THE SAME OUTSTANDING QUALITY AND TECHNOLOGY AS OUR MORE ADVANCED 6DOF OPTIONS
MFS TAKES PRIDE IN DELIVERING THE HIGHEST QUALITY PRODUCTS AND THAT COMITMENT EXTENDS TO OUR 3DOF MFS SYSTEMS.
OUR 3DOF MOTION SYSTEMS ARE BUILT TO LAST WITH MINIMAL MAINTENANCE REQUIRED. OUR 3DOF MOTION PLATFORMS BOAST THE SAME OUTSTANDING QUALITY AND TECHNOLOGY AS OUR MORE ADVANCED 6DOF OPTIONS.
Our 3DOF motion systems are indeed powered with the same quality standards whatever their size. They are the ideal solution for demanding customers looking for a smooth, trouble free system operation with minimal maintenance and operation costs.
Our 3 DOF motion platforms are designed for reliable, round-the-clock operation, with no overheating issues. This makes them ideal for use in both the entertainment and industrial sectors.
Overall, a 3 DOF motion platform offers an adequate level of motion simulation that caters to a broad spectrum of uses and provides a cost-effective alternative for those who do not require the intricacy of a 6 DOF motion platform. It offers a balanced trade-off between functionality and affordability..
