Fixed rotary index tables transform a constant input drive motion into an intermittent output drive motion. The intermittent drive motion occurs with a flame- or inductively hardened and high-accuracy milled-barrel cam. Mathematical laws of motion guarantee a soft, shock-proof and jerk-free movement optimally designed for its intended purpose. The designed assembly allows accurate and secure mounting to the output dial, which is also backlash-free.
Power comes from either a three-phase brake motor with a gear reducer or a chain or belt wheel on the table’s drive shaft. This power source is firmly connected to the barrel cam without internal gear sets, and it turns the cam followers and, subsequently, the output flange. The output flange mounts within a wire-bearing assembly, backlash-free of play (within steel ring — not in casting). Our fixed rotary index tables feature complete sealing to eliminate intrusion from foreign particulate matter and fluids.
Motion Index Drives produces several fixed rotary indexing tables to meet your process’s needs.
Our RT Series indexing tables provide extreme versatility and value with minimal upkeep or no maintenance required. They feature clockwise, counterclockwise and oscillating operation and can be installed in any direction. A generous center opening permits additional electric or pneumatic lines.
The RTX Series indexing solutions easily handle offset loads with a built-in four-point contact bearing. These high-accuracy tables are capable of precision between 15 and 35 arc seconds index intervals as short as 0.16 seconds. We produce these with lifetime lubrication for lasting, upkeep-free performance.
Motion Index Drives’ TSR Ring fixed rotary indexers feature high load capacity using a four-point bearing. They easily accommodate larger components with up to 20-foot-diameter tooling designs. An open center allows you to mount additional devices to improve production efficiency.
Our TT Series rotary index tables are ideal for versatile mounting in any position. A mechanical lock secures dwelling components for peace of mind. You can customize these maintenance-free units with up to 108 stops for your application’s demands.
