Overview

High-speed, high-precision rotary indexing solutions for manufacturing systems requiring exact and swift actions.

This product is an indexing device, not a full robot arm. It is used as a machine tool unit for rotary positioning in cutting applications
Key advantage: no coupling needed; uses a roller gear cam mechanism for rigidity
No hydraulic unit required for clamping, reducing energy consumption
Over 20,000 units built and deployed on machine tools globally
Repeatability: ±2 seconds (arcseconds) for high precision
Available with 6, 8, 10, 12, or 16 index stops; allowable torque varies with number of stops (specs shown are for 10 stops)
