About

The High-precision Automated Angle-setting Complex is designed for quality control and testing of devices used in rocket and space technology control systems, including angle sensors, accelerometers, tilt meters, and gyroscopic devices. It sets angles both manually and automatically via electric drive controlled by software. Features automatic self-calibration without additional instruments to reduce measurement error in current climatic conditions. Measurement range 0–360°, angular error ±0.5°, resolution ≈0.013°. Maximum load: 65 kg with vertical rotation axis, 10 kg with horizontal axis. Turntable dimensions 363×267×116 mm (45 kg), electronic unit 300×160×110 mm (5 kg). Released 2008. Flight qualified — used for quality control of Fregat upper stage, Proton-M, and Angara launch vehicles. Applications: aviation, space, radio engineering, civil industries. Customizable.
