    Do anyone know where I could purchase universal joints?
    The universal joints mounted on my actuators for the 6DOF cant handle the angle we are supposed to have....
    The total weight on the platform is about 1000kg, so it have to be solid.

    I attached some pictures of the joints that we have today.
