Azimuthal mounting with high-accuracy absolute encoders on both axes and high-performance motor drives

The AZ2000 HPS is a further development of the former AZ2000. It is an Altazimuth mount based on the mechanics of the GM2000 HPS. The AZ2000 HPS is a very versatile mount for research purposes , perfect for satellite tracking , photometric and astrometric measurements, LiDaR laser applications and more.

Due to the azimuthal design, astrophotography requires a field rotator. With a field rotator is also the "classic" astrophotography with the usual 10Micron precision possible.

The standard version comes with a counterbalance bar and only allows the telescope to be mounted on one side of the mount. Optionally, Dual Telescope (DT) version is available, which allows the use of two or more optics side by side. which optimizes the load on the mount and uses the advantages of the azimuthal design.
