Ganro DR Series Rotary Tables

October 13, 2012

Ganro Industrial Corp., formally known as Golden Sun Industrial, has introduced their new DR Series model of rotary tables and indexers and are available from CNC Indexing & Feeding Technologies. The new series of rotary tables and indexers range in faceplate diameter size from 120mm (4.72") to 2,500mm (98.42"). The vast range of available sizes accommodates the majority of manufacturer's requirements. All DR Series rotary tables can be utilized in the vertical or horizontal position to increase manufacturing flexibility.

The DR Series features a more compact base which uses less of the machining envelope allowing more machine table space for workpieces and additional workholding equipment. All Ganro rotary tables are now standard with larger center thru-holes to accommodate larger workpieces.

Internally the new design features a new deeper double lead worm system. This improved worm shaft and worm wheel design will increase accuracy and reduce backlash giving users the ability to produce better workpieces. The new design also features improved gear ratios for increased rpm.

  • backlash

    backlash

    Reaction in dynamic motion systems where potential energy that was created while the object was in motion is released when the object stops. Release of this potential energy or inertia causes the device to quickly snap backward relative to the last direction of motion. Backlash can cause a system’s final resting position to be different from what was intended and from where the control system intended to stop the device.

  • computer numerical control ( CNC)

    computer numerical control ( CNC)

    Microprocessor-based controller dedicated to a machine tool that permits the creation or modification of parts. Programmed numerical control activates the machine’s servos and spindle drives and controls the various machining operations. See DNC, direct numerical control; NC, numerical control.
