iOptron have introduced two exciting new Alt-Az strain wave mounts, the HAZ31 and HAZ46. Both are welcome additions to the iOptron strain wave gear mount family!
This light weight, compact, medium payload HAZ46 mount will deliver an astronomy experience like never before. With a mount head weighing in at 12.3lbs (5.6 kg) the HAZ46 has a payload capability of 44 lbs, (20kg) without needing a cumbersome counterweight or shaft.
HAZ mounts will support a large variety of instruments where flexibility is needed for outreach programs and satellite tracking. The multi position saddle (can be placed on top or to the side) uniquely sets up the HAZ46 to accommodate binoculars. Just turn the mount on, it will calibrate itself and GoTo the first target utilising iOptrons time tested "Lever and Go" technology.Utilising state of the art strain wave gear technology for both the RA and DEC movement, the HAZ46 delivers unparalleled weight to payload efficiency. Its black anodised all metal CNC machined body is not only appealing to the eye, it’s a rugged platform that will perform at the highest level for many years to come. Unique features such as an electronic friction break and power down memory allow the mount to safely stop and resume a GoTo slew or continue tracking even after an abrupt power loss (No need to realign and start from the beginning).A HAZ46 mount can be controlled by a computer, either via ASCOM/Commander for a Windows PC or a third party INDI driver for a MacOS software; a SmartPhone/Tablet via iOptron Commander Lite or an App like SkySafari; or a Raspberry Pi device via INDI driver.
