fadal rotary table free sample

Your rotary unit is repaired, reassembled and run in for 10 hours. It is then re-inspected, all final adjustments and calibrations are performed to the original manufactures specification.

The original Fadal rotary heads are still one of the best overall designed attachments for the Fadal machine. While there are many imported rotary heads that might "look good" on the outside, it"s the inside that really counts. The simple fact is the Fadal rotary tables were specifically designed to take a crash and keep on working.

Many different rotary heads were made throughout the years of production. A 4th or 5th rotary axis was one of the most popular machine options. In the early 90"s we started shipping all machines "4th axis ready" which means the machine has all the wiring necessary. You basically only needed an amplifier and a axis controller card with software. Contact us if you thinking of adding a 4th axis, we offer all the necessary components.

As you"ll see below, we are the most qualified to repair your rotary table. Having been there from the beginning, we know exactly what your table needs to bring it up to original specifications.

The very first rotary table sold that was sold on the VMC45 in 1981. It was designed and manufactured by Fadal for the VMC45, it never realized full production after production the VMC45 was stopped.

Troyke Mfg. Co. -Afterwards, with the introduction of the VMC40 in 1984, we began offering the TROYKE rotary products as a 4th axis option. The table had an interesting full contact bearing surface using Turcite between the faceplate and the casting with radial bearings support for the faceplate spindle. Few of theses units still remain in the field today. If needed, we can provide complete service for these units.

Soon after 1987, we started adapting many of the popular Japanese rotary tables. Some customers would send us their tables and we adapt our motors and 4th axis interface to them. Eventually we started adding the Tsudakoma, Tecnara and Nikken rotary tables as a direct option to all machines

TR65 - The TR65 (Tilt/Rotate, 6.5" dia. faceplate) had a unique clutch system build into the trunion for the B-axis. One of the biggest problems with 5-axis programming was that is was easier to crash than to program. And a B-axis crash usually resulted in the customer having to return the unit for repair. With this unique design, if the Z-axis crashed into the part, instead of damaging the gears it would simply slip the trunion clutch. The CNC knows the exact position of the B-axis because of the rotary scale feedback that is directly attached to the trunion and not the motor. The addition of the trunion clutch was so important because it virtually eliminated the disruption of operation for a service call.

VH65 - After years of installing and also repairing the many various manufactures rotary tables we sold, we learned what different designs worked and didn"t work in the machines. The second rotary head Fadal designed was the VH65. The VH65 stands for Vertical or Horizontal mount and 6.5" diameter faceplate.

Index Designs is an all-American company. Their founders were part of the team that helped design, engineer, manufacture and market the very successful line of Fadal Machining Centers – starting in the 1970s. Index Designs entered the rotary table market in 2006 with the goal of creating a line of high-end, rugged and accurate rotary products that we could sell at affordable prices, but still be able to provide reliable delivery and superior customer service and support. Thier products are completely manufactured in our Chatsworth, California facility. Index Designs uses state-of-the-art, HMC’s, VMC’s and CNC gear cutting machines.

as a first pass you need to understand that the fadal will output a DC motor drive, and will be looking for a resolver feedback, not an encoder assuming that your 1997 has DC motors. otherwise it could be AC and would be looking for encoder. if your machine is AC but rotary table is DC you will need to install a DC power supply chassis, overloads, and probably other gear.

to add a 4th you need an amp, 1010 with AB no limit eeprom, hopefully your machine is pre-wired up thru the sheet metal to the big military style connector. you need the dummy plug for that when the 4th is off the table.

alternately you can use just the indexer in indexer mode with m30 codes to where the machine wiill say "index" then wait for the signal from your indexer box that says "i am done indexing" to accomplish this you need the extra m-codes option board, which i think lots of machines had. tell tale sign is a long cable with 4 pin connector near the bottom of your ctrl cab. you should only need that m-code board 1050-3A (PCB-0008). read the fadal manuals to find out how to hook up the indexer line - it needs to just close a relay when the indexing is done. I used my rotary as an indexer for a while, it is plenty useful / mostly i dont need to do full 4th. although managing the indexer code was a pain as my cam doesn"t output for it / had to manually make it happen. i used relative coords to make my life easier in that situation. i bet you could get cam to do it somehow / depends on a lot.

i have experience with this to an extent. i have a VH-65 which was an indexer using the fadal indexer box, and a DC motor with an encoder on it. to get it to be a "full" 4th, i had to add the 1010 card, and a DC amp. my machine is a 1992 DC drives machine. I had to put a different motor into my VH-65 which has a resolver assembly on it, and rewire it to hook up correctly to the 4th axis pre-wire.

to get the haas table to work you"ll need to know all details of motor currents, feedback type, and so on. its not a job for someone without a lot of engineering experience... best of luck man...
