ORCA™ Series Smart Linear Motors
ORCA™ Series Smart Linear Motors
ORCA™ motors combine actuation, sensing, drive electronics, and control in a compact, IP68-rated sealed package, delivering precise force and position control while reducing system complexity and potential points of failure. Backdrivable, mechanically compliant, and silent, they are ideal for uncrewed ground, air, sea, subsea, maritime systems, vehicle automation, sensor and payload stabilization, and defence test equipment. They are also used across many industrial manufacturing and robotics applications, ranging from pneumatic replacement to robotic assembly lines.

RAVEN-6DoF Stabilization System
RAVEN-6DoF Stabilization System
The RAVEN is a customizable direct drive magnetic six-degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) motion platform/stabilization system. The family is based on Iris's integrated ORCATM motors which includes high-speed force-controlled motion, and configurable kinematics to support a wide range of custom platform geometries and end user applications. RAVEN's are used in vehicle-mounted systems stabilized platforms including: EO/IR payloads, C-UAS, remote weapon stations, and ambulatory patient shock/vibration mitigation. They are also used across several design testing labs (to replicate given shock, vibration, sea state, etc.)
