Automotive & Radar Testing Platform
In scientific research, automotive design, and high-end evaluation, absolute repeatability is paramount. Shenyang Weizhong offers the ZXK series, an automated motion-controlled turntable system engineered for environments requiring extreme angular positioning accuracy. Powered by our proprietary Pin-Gear Drive technology and integrated with advanced closed-loop digital encoders, this system delivers an ultra-stable platform for international laboratories, offering ≤±0.2° accuracy for vehicle compliance design and scaling up to ≤±0.02° zero-backlash precision for advanced radar and antenna arrays.
Global Success: Precision Positioning System for Mitsubishi Motors Design Center
Manual mechanical angle adjustments in compliance laboratories are highly time-consuming and prone to human error. We fully automate index alignment routines for absolute data repeatability.
Advanced research requires distinct, minute indexing points. Our multi-axis architecture handles complex target parameters, providing ≤±0.2° precision for vehicle bodies and up to ≤±0.02° specialized control for RF radar arrays.
We deliver ready-to-run industrial interface nodes supporting Siemens PLC, industrial PC buses, or custom client APIs, linking the turntable smoothly into your main software testing suite.
Operators can input exact targeting commands down to a standard 2° step increment on general lines, scaling down to ultra-precise 0.01° steps for advanced aerospace testing.
Utilizing localized digital feedback encoders, the platform maintains a structural alignment accuracy of ≤±0.2° for vehicle fleets and ≤±0.02° for highly sensitive military radar arrays.
Built upon our signature zero-slip Pin-Gear layout, providing uniform torque conversion and huge payload load limits without mechanical teeth degradation.
Easily save complex automation tables detailing target coordinate stops, specific rotational speeds, and localized dwell timelines for automated 3D capture metrics.
Custom-developed for China's prestigious 54th Research Institute (CETC), this 15-meter military-grade testing turntable carries high-tonnage antenna structural frames while enforcing absolute angular coordinate tracking under rigorous RF electromagnetic measurement limits.
Because every laboratory setting and testing parameter group is distinct, our structural engineering team builds each positioning platform from the ground up to match precise client physics data maps.
Our engineers calculate exact framework diameters, mass moment matrices, and structural support values based on your heaviest test articles and eccentric loads.
Bespoke deck geometric profiles and low-depth pit configurations are drawn up to guarantee a perfectly flush, level alignment with your laboratory chamber floors.
Tailored PLC programming architecture and high-torque Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) parameters map precisely to your exact software synchronization commands.

Our instrumentation engineers are ready to configure the perfect positioning turntable configuration for your laboratory or custom anechoic design chamber.
Q1: Can I control the turntable via my own software?
A: Yes, our automated control topologies are engineered with completely open communication architectures. We natively provide verified industrial protocols, including RS485, Profinet, EtherCAT, and standard Ethernet TCP/IP API structures, allowing direct command integration from proprietary laboratory software or data acquisition platforms.
Q2: What is the minimum movement increment?
A: While our baseline automotive evaluation systems comfortably support manual or programmed step inputs down to 2 degrees, our specialized high-resolution Radar and Antenna measurement lines allow precision indexing increments optimized down to 0.01 degrees.
Q3: Is the stopping accuracy repeatable over long periods?
A: Absolutely. By anchoring our transmission architecture on a heavy mechanical Pin-Gear system and closing the feedback loop with high-resolution absolute encoders, we completely eliminate transmission drift and friction slippage. This ensures our rated stopping accuracies remain perfectly repeatable year after year without positional decay.
Q4: Do you provide on-site calibration services?
A: We provide end-to-end global technical support, including complete hardware calibration blueprints, remote engineering diagnostics, and step-by-step interactive video configuration guides to ensure your platform meets precise testing alignment criteria upon integration.
Q5: Can the turntable perform automated multi-angle stops?
A: Yes, the master control panel natively supports Custom Motion Sequencing. Users can program customized coordinate tables specifying precise angular target arrays, rotational speeds, and localized dwell times to execute fully autonomous 3D scanning, photographic capturing, or RF measurement routines.
Q6: Is the system capable of rotating heavy prototype vehicles smoothly?
A: Yes, built upon our heavy-duty ZX industrial mechanical framework, the platform provides immense rigid structural support. While standard models handle static weights up to 4,000 kg, our bespoke engineered variations easily sustain dynamic eccentric loads scaling up to 150 metric tons.
Q7: What level of maintenance does the Pin-Gear drive require?
A: Unlike traditional rubberized friction drives that suffer from constant tire degradation, mechanical wear deformation, and recurrent tension re-alignments, the positive rolling engagement of our Pin-Gear mechanism operates virtually maintenance-free. It only requires regular multi-month visual structural checks and standard gear surface lubrication.
Q8: Do you provide higher precision tiers specifically for Radar and Antenna measurements?
A: Yes, for demanding defense and aerospace testing, our dedicated Radar Line leaves behind standard mechanical constraints. It incorporates full zero-backlash dual-drive mechanics alongside absolute multi-turn encoders, tightening stopping accuracies to an extreme limit of ≤±0.02 degrees.
