With a flexible indexing design, the cam in our rotary index tables, maintains a constant load, so output velocity stays consistent as long as the motor runs at a continual speed. This performance allows the motor’s logic controller to achieve an exacting transition of mechanical power to the output.
A servo or AC motor with an encoder pairs with a gear reducer to provide the power. The gear reducer connects to the input shaft, which is firmly joined to the internal barrel cam with no further internal gearing.
The barrel cam rotates the top dial through the cam followers with a zero-backlash internal design. The output dial mounts to a high-precision four-point contact bearing assembly, which is pre-loaded to eliminate any run-out. It is completely sealed to eliminate intrusion from foreign particulate matter and fluids.
We have crafted these indexers to be identifiable by all robot brands and controls.

Our RTF Series flexible rotary index tables offer maintenance-free performance in a compact or midrange footprint. They can operate clockwise or counterclockwise and provide oscillating motion. We designed this equipment for flexible installation with any mounting configuration possible. Enjoy high accuracy of up to 5 arc seconds and cleanroom readiness for sensitive applications.
Feedback from customers like you has helped us create the ideal servo-driven, programmable solution with our TMF Series rotary indexing tables. These models build on their value by combining zero-backlash operation with our flex technology. Our revolutionary design includes a matching dial plate, streamlined housing and at least four oversized cam followers that consistently engage with the barrel cam.
We can manufacture our TSR Ring rotary index tables with tooling solutions up to 20 feet in diameter for optimal workpiece versatility. These options include oscillating movement as a standard feature. A center opening allows for easy integration with other automation equipment and solutions.
We have enginerred our flexible rotary indexers with numerous advantages, such as:
