 ROTARY TABLES
 
Rotary Index Tables convert a uniform input motion into an intermittent output motion through use of a precision-machined barrel cam. Motion Index Drives flame hardens cams and cam followers, increasing system accuracy and component lifespan when compared to processes used by leading competitors. Rotary Index Tables have a variety of station and speed settings, including programmable Motion Flex units (servo motor and encoder tables) and fixed mechanical systems. In addition, Motion Index Drives can manufacture MEDEX units for clean room production or increase accuracy with Motion's patented NANO Indexer Technology.
 
 
Key Features and Benefits:
  • Flame hardened cams and cam followers
  • Robust construction for intense environments
  • Designed for smooth acceleration and deceleration
  • Accuracies up to ±0.008mm
  • Applicable in a number of configurations and settings
  • Locking dwell for stand-alone precision
  • Clean room ready with MEDEX Index Drives
  • Higher precision achieved with NANO Indexer Technology

 
Motion Index Drives has three standard lines of Rotary Index Tables:
  • RT Series
  • TT Series
  • TSR Series
