Uni-Systems Engineering, in partnership with M3 Engineering, provides custom engineering for observatory azimuth drives, shutter drives, wind screen drive systems, and additional project-specific mechanization as required. Our systematic design process – which encompasses structural, mechanical, electrical, and controls engineering – prioritizes the reliability, accessibility, maintainability, and safety of these mechanisms in order to ensure the long-term success of these critical components.
Telescope Observatories
Our expertise within the industry is bolstered by proprietary optimization software for the design of azimuth bogies and lateral guide rollers, developed in response to site visits to existing observatories in which these components were shown to have a disproportionate impact on telescope downtime.
Various delivery models include consultation, design only, and design, fabrication, and installation.
