Visit iOptron HAE69B iMate is a hybrid Alt-Az/Equatorial mount that uses the latest Strain Wave Gear advanced technology. It offers an excellent weight/payload ratio: only 19 kg for support up to 31 kg (69 lb), without the need for a counterweight - a feat made possible by its advanced engineering.
The body is CNC-machined in black-anodized aluminum, ensuring sturdiness and longevity. The electronic friction brake system safely stops the frame in the event of a power cut or planned shutdown.
The heart of innovation lies in the on-board computer iMatebased on a 64-bit ARM processor. It features Wi-Fi connectivity, KStars, Ekos and INDI drivers. Users can control or capture their astro sessions in total autonomy (32 GB eMMC + micro-SD slot up to 64 GB).
Designed for portability and flexibility, the HAE69B iMate eliminates the need for an external case: all accessories (cameras, focalizers, filter wheels) connect directly to the iMate, without trailing cables.
