Boasting a 1300 mm footprint, the TO1300 suddenly makes larger scale applications possible that previously seemed out of reach− as current direct-drive tables are relatively small and limited to a diameter of 750 mm. Additionally the TO1300’s high-tech drive operates predominantly without mechanics or gearboxes.

With over ten years of expertise in the field of direct drive torque motors, WEISS often designs and develops out of the logical response to changing market requirements and customer demand. This was the case with the TO1300 as a client’s concrete custom requirements stipulated a high mass inertia of 160 kgm2 and a large index increment of 45° with fast cycles−namely an index time of 0.21 seconds with a dwell time of 0.29 seconds.

For challenging tasks of this nature, a mechanical heavy duty table is typically the logical choice. Due to their gearing ratio, however, these tables don’t fare well in service life calculations for use at such high speeds as the needle bearings simply suffer from too much wear.

The correct alternative is a direct drive; which inspired the development of the TO1300. With a direct drive, only one bearing is under load which is virtually free of backlash. The table is low-wear and easily capable of delivering the desired dynamic performance requirements.

Unique to the TO1300 is that customers can customize it to their individual requirements. For example; they can make a modular selection between bearings, encoder and motor, and thereby alter the following table characteristics:

A specialist in automation, WEISS also offers many sizes for the TO series direct-drive rotary indexing tables; ranging from small to very large. Optimal solutions for specific application challenges can be achieved from the series wide range of options. Each TO model is also available in a version with a cleanroom certificate.

Rotary indexing tables provide an indexing axis for mounting workpieces on machine tools. They are designed to position workpieces at precise angles for different machining operations.

These devices are used on CNC machining centers, lathes, presses and other types of production or manufacturing machines. A CNC milling machine uses a rotary indexing table to provide a fourth or even a fifth axis for certain machining operations.

Such tables can be mounted either vertically or horizontally. The rotary drive can be manual, electric, pneumatic or hydraulic. It uses either a rack and pinion, or a servomotor and gearbox. Some models have multiple rotating tables, providing multi-axis workpiece mounting.

When selecting a rotary indexing table, be sure to determine the mounting orientation: horizontal, vertical, multi-axis and tilting. Other factors are table diameter, maximum load capacity and indexing accuracy.

We combine rotary index tables with industrial automation systems so each task of your manufacturing process blends seamlessly into the next. For example, in the past we’ve created industrial automation systems that join rotary indexing machines with pick-and-place units for some of our clients. Contact us to see what we can do for you.

Rotary indexers are just one part of the equation when building a custom assembly cell. It’s important to remember the entire scope of the project and be cognizant that the rotary table should be able to move precise distances before stopping cleanly, with no backlash or wobbling. It needs to be balanced and capable of handling the tasks at hand.

Our automation experts have years of experience in consulting with our customers to create machines that suit their needs. We incorporate rotary tables from industry leaders like WEISS, Fibro, and Camco into our machines to create the perfect fusion of form and function. Our dedication to quality is unmatched in the world of custom machinery.

We seamlessly integrate rotary indexing tables into our automated machinery to provide you with custom solutions that work for your business. If you’re looking to take your manufacturing process to the next level, give the custom machine builders at Paramount Tool a call at (616) 582-5300 today.

Beyond inventing a new, innovative ring binding system made of paper, Kugler-Womako was also the first in its sector to switch over to the accompanying binding production process from a traditional linear transfer unit to a rotary indexing ring.  According to Anton Jost, Project Manager at Kugler-Womako,  “Since our paper binding system is fundamentally new, we also wanted to rethink the processes employed.  All previous binding machines worked with a linear system, but we wondered whether we could improve on this with a different approach.”

Ultimately, the concept for the first EcoBinder binding machine was a semi-automatic unit with four processing stations − based on a highly dynamic, fixed-position WEISS TR750 rotary indexing ring with 90 degree divisions.

Given their successful collaboration in establishing a rotary indexing table solution, the company further enlisted WEISS to manufacture and deliver the complete table including: subframe, a fixed and rotating aluminium ring with milled recesses and drilled mounting holes, as well as connection elements for the mountings of the processing stations.  This allowed the engineers at Kugler-Womako to focus all of their attention on designing their new binding process.

Even with up to 12 stations, this machine wouldn’t prove to be a problem for the WEISS TR series which offers ring diameters of up to 2,200 mm – providing more than enough scope for coupling with processing stations.

Jost noted the mechanical integration capabilities of the rotary indexing rings from WEISS, “We were able to connect the frequency inverter control on the TR750 to our higher level machine control system with no issues.  In fact, the binding machine was already up and running just a few hours after installation.”

When compared to a linear design, the WEISS TR750 rotary indexing table broke new ground for Kugler-Womako by saving space and moving the infeed and output areas of the blocks closer together − offering a particular advantage for manual operations.  Essentially, because a rotary indexing table is made up of significantly fewer parts than a transfer line, it was also possible to lower the cost for the binding machine while increasing production quality.
