Servo-Controlled Rotary Index Tables

Programmable Rotary Index Tables with Precision Barrel-Cam Technology

Motion Index Drives flexible rotary index tables incorporate a precision-machined barrel-cam that is design to maintain continous indexing between the cam and followers. This provides smooth and repeatable motion and consistent load transmission. The rotary table’s motion is able to be programmed and adjusted to meet varying production requirements that include index angle, speed, acceleration, deceleration, oscillation and synchronization.

How Servo-Controlled Rotary Index Tables Work

A servo or AC motor with encoder can be paired with a gear reducer to provide power to the input shaft. The input shaft is directly connected to the internal barrel cam, eliminating the need for additional internal gearing. As the barrel cam rotates, the cam followers drive the output dial through a zero-backlash mechanical design.

MID Servo-Controlled Rotary Index Tables are compatible with major robot brands and control platforms, making them well suited for integrated automation systems and robotic applications.

  • Robot and controls synchronization for integration into automated systems
  • Industrial-grade construction with hardened cams and cam followers for long service life
  • Sealed housing protects internal components from particle infiltration
  • Flexible mounting and configuration options to accommodate application-specific requirements
  • High-efficiency motor drives minimize input power requirements

Programmable Rotary Index Tables have a multitude of applications in a wide variety of industries. Rotary indexing tables can be used to position parts for welding, machining, assembly, filling and labeling, inspection or any number of operations requiring components to be presented at precise angles. Here are some common industries we support:

What is the difference between servo and fixed barrel cam rotary indexers?

Flexible programmable rotary index tables provide servo-controlled rotary positioning for applications that require variable index angles, speeds, motion profiles, or bidirectional operation. Unlike fixed-motion indexing systems, programmable tables allow motion parameters to be adjusted for changing production requirements.
