Aslesha Azimuth Scanner
Aslesha: Lightweight Ruggedized Azimuth Scanner for Surveillance & Tracking
The Single Axis Pedestal Aslesha is a lightweight, compact and ruggedized azimuth scanning platform designed and supplied by System Controls for continuous 360 degree rotation of surveillance, tracking and ground based surveillance payloads weighing up to 110 kg. Weighing less than 25 kg, driven by a BLDC motor through a hollow shaft harmonic drive, compliant with MIL STD 461E and MIL STD 810F and offering readout accuracy of plus or minus 0.001 degrees, the Aslesha delivers precision, portability and defence-grade environmental resilience in a single compact azimuth scanner platform.

Lightweight & Compact Form Factor
At less than 25 kg system weight, the Aslesha is designed for applications where platform weight is a critical constraint. Its compact, precision-machined aircraft quality aluminum alloy construction delivers maximum structural rigidity at minimum weight, making it one of the lightest defence-grade azimuth scanners in its payload class.
Defence Grade Environmental Compliance
The Aslesha meets MIL STD 461E for electromagnetic interference, MIL STD 810F for rain, salt, fog and fungus resistance and JSS 55555 L3 class environmental testing including driving rain. It operates across minus 30 degrees C to plus 55 degrees C and survives wind speeds up to 120 kmph, making it a true all-environment defence surveillance platform.
Precision Azimuth Control
The Aslesha delivers angular accuracy of plus or minus 0.1 degrees with an exceptional readout accuracy of plus or minus 0.001 degrees, achieved through a BLDC motor driving a hollow shaft harmonic drive mechanism. Speed is continuously settable from 1 to 25 rpm in steps of 0.5 rpm, giving system integrators precise, flexible scan rate control across the full operational range.
