Delivering Unsurpassed Hexapod-Based Performance

For the highest performance throughout the vehicle development process, smart test and development engineers rely on the Moog FCS HexaTEST Multi-Axis Shaker Table (MAST) as a truly indispensable tool.

Providing a full six degrees of freedom (6 DOF), the HexaTEST MAST is used to simulate acceleration and displacement outputs, and reproduce key data collected on proving grounds. Its integrated control hardware and software provides the most flexible, highest performing test equipment available.

The Moog FCS family of HexaTEST MAST solutions includes two standard systems— HexaTEST 33 and HexaTEST 66—designed for the world’s most demanding test lab environments. The systems incorporate fatigue-rated hydrostatic servoactuators that can deliver more than 14 g of vertical acceleration to payloads beyond 680 kg (1,500 lbs).

In addition, the systems’ unique design takes up less than half the space of conventional shaker tables, saving on valuable lab space and reducing overall facilities costs.
