wedge options
Wedge options can be special-ordered for applications
in which the confi guration requires the positioner to be
pre-tilted. Applications include downward tilt of Roll/
EL positioners in which the wedge’s resulting tilt shifts
the elevation travel beyond its normal downward-look
angle. Wedges are constructed of the same material,
steel or aluminum, as the positioner or base-riser and
in a way that does not limit the positioner assembly’s
total capacity and overall specifi cations. Important pa-
rameters include tilt angle and overall height and width.
Consult your local sales representative when confi guring
this option.
• WG001 – Wedge, Medium Duty
• WG002 – Wedge, Heavy Duty WG002
Counterweights
Counterweights can be special-ordered for applica-
tions in which the load is counter-balanced, optimizing
torque and motion control. They typically vary by weight
and length and are constructed of the same material,
steel or aluminum, as the positioner itself. Counterwei-
ghts add weight to the overall assembly and someti-
mes restrict travel. Important parameters include overall
length, adjustable weight plates, indoor or outdoor use,
and positioner confi guration. Consult your local sales
representative when confi guring this option.
