The Type 11 Biaxial Gimbal from Moog is an Antenna Pointing Mechanism that consists of two Type 1 actuators in an orthogonal combination. This two-axis gimbal has an output torque and a holding torque of 8 Nm. It has an output step angle of 0.0075 degrees and an output step rate of 9.375 degrees/sec. The mechanism has up to 9600 steps/revolution and a harmonic drive ratio of 100:1. It has a maximum moment of 61 Nm and an axial output flange load capacity of 1556 N. The gimbal has a total assembly weight of 1.32 Kg and can be used for two-axis antenna or solar array drives. Different application-specific options can be implemented which include slip rings, RF rotary joints, cable management Type 11 Biaxial Gimbal systems, hard stops, and launch locks.
