New concept for more carrying capacity with less weight
iOptron has realized a new mounting concept, thus further improving the principle of "mounting German design". The result is remarkable. With a weight of only 12.3 kg (axbox), the CEM60 telescopes can carry up to 27 kg dead weight.

By the CEM60 so also heavy telescopes, such as. The TS 12 "TRUSS RC Astrograph, the mount is much more compact and sturdier than the classic design, allowing better leverage and better carrying power.

An additional advantage is the pole height adjustment, which can be made significantly more massive and wider. As with the classic design, you can create a 100% balance with the counterweight and by moving the telescope in the bracket. Another advantage is the pole finder - regardless of the telescope position, you can always look through it, because the declination axis does not pass through.

Powerful control
The CEM60 is equipped with the advanced GOTONOVA GoTo control. The database comprises 359,000 objects. The hand controller is equipped with a large eight-line LCD screen for a better overview. The controls are innovative and easy to use by anyone after a short time. Of course, the mount and control offers all possibilities for astrophotography.

In contrast to the CEM60, the CEM60-EC has high-precision encoders which push the periodic error to less than 0.5 arc seconds via a real-time PC.

The advantages of the CEM60:

♦ New mount design with better leverage - minimizes dead weight and increases carrying capacity
♦ Ideal for astrophotography
♦ carrying capacity 27.2 kg with a dead weight of only 12.3 kg (axbox)
♦ Counterweight 9.5 kg included
♦ Highly accurate adjustment of worm and worm wheel possible
♦ Precise pole height and azimuth fine adjustment
♦ Accurate stepper motors with 0.06 arc seconds accuracy for accurate GoTo and accurate tracking
♦ iOptron AccuAligningTM backlit calibrated polarity finder for easy, fast and accurate nesting
♦ Polar Alignment program for precise alignment without polar finder
♦ Go2Nova® 8407 Control Box with Advanced GOTONOVA® GOTO Technology
♦ Built-in heating of the control box - prevents a sluggish display at low temperatures
♦ High precision encoder
♦ Real time correction of the per. Helix error (RPEC)
♦ Periodic error less than 0.5 arc seconds
♦ ST-4 autoguiding interface built-in for all major autoguiders
♦ Built-in 32-channel Global Positioning System (GPS)
♦ Quick release for Vixen and Losmandy level prism rails
♦ 150 mm base for solid connection to tripods or columns
♦ Including aluminum carrying case
