MZT260TA Two-Axis Three-Light Turntable
China Moneypro
The MZT260TA Two-Axis Three-Light Turntable is a compact, lightweight optoelectronic system designed for unmanned and armored vehicles, plus monitoring towers. It combines an uncooled infrared thermal imager, 30x continuous zoom visible light camera, laser rangefinder, and two-axis servo-stabilized platform for round-the-clock reconnaissance and surveillance. Features include automatic target tracking, 30x optical zoom, infrared and visible light detection, laser ranging up to 8km, and advanced stabilization with 0.05 degree accuracy. The system offers multiple operating modes including automatic search, manual control, and automatic tracking with memory function. It delivers real-time infrared and visible video output, supports photo and video recording, and operates reliably in extreme temperatures from minus 40 to 60 degrees Celsius. Weighing under 15kg with compact dimensions, it provides high integration and stability for border defense, coastal monitoring, and tactical operations.
I. Product Introduction
The MZT260TA optoelectronic turntable integrates an uncooled infrared thermal imager, a 30× continuous zoom visible light camera, a laser rangefinder, a two-axis servo-stabilized platform, and an image tracker. With its lightweight design, high stability, high precision, and high level of integration, it is well-suited for deployment on unmanned vehicles, armored vehicles, and sentry towers to perform day-and-night reconnaissance, surveillance, and target localization tasks.
Equipped with the uncooled infrared thermal imager and visible light camera, the turntable enables all-weather detection, identification, and tracking of ground targets. It simultaneously outputs real-time infrared and visible light video streams for mission personnel to monitor.
Typical applications of the optoelectronic turntable include aerial detection, ground surveillance, border and coastal defense, high-altitude monitoring, and border sentry posts.
