MFS provides a wide catalog of products from 2DOF to 6DOF (degrees of freedom) motion platforms and beyond (custom design) for any sizes and payloads.

6 DOF motion systems provide PITCH, ROLL, HEAVE, SWAY, SURGE and YAW

Pitch axis: tilts forward and backward
Roll axis: pivots side to side
Heave axis: moving up and down
Sway axis: moving left and right
Surge axis: moving forward and backward
Yaw axis: swivels left and right

6 DOF systems are the top of the line of standard motion platforms

Our systems are designed and built for an intensive use

All our motion systems (whatever their size and payload) are powered with the same industrial quality standards.

Our motion systems are the ideal solution for demanding customers looking for a smooth, trouble free and lasting system operation with minimal maintenance or operation hidden costs.

We provide real time Reverse Kinematics, Forward Kinematics and Full featured Washout Cueing Filters all completely “on-board” meaning that any client application can operate these systems.

The most common applications for 6DOF Motion systems & platforms include :

Driving simulators
Rotary flight simulators (typically, a 6DOF is the only realistic option)
Fixed wing flight simulator (a 6 DOF will allow asymetric flights and ground handling to be simulated correctly thanks to the SWAY, SURGE and YAW axis missing on a 3DOF)
Train simulators (a 6DOF is typically recommended for a train simulator due to the dominant surge and sway requirements)
Driving simulators (a 6DOF will let you feel loss of grip or traction, rapid lane change, acceleration onset, braking, rough terrain, ripple strips,…)
Industrial testing
Mining simulators
Movie ride simulators
Industrial testing (gaz tank tester, …)
Research applications
TV and cinema (advertisement, movies,…)
Event attraction
Amusement park ride
Medical research
Telecommunication equipement (track satelittes)
Landing platform for drone or flying car
Sea motion compensation
Boating, sailing, ( a 6OF is typically the only solution when it comes to sea motion)
Aircraft compensation
Landing platform for drone or flying car
… and much more !
