RG Series Rotary Tables

January 01, 2014

KOMA Precision Inc. introduces a new line of high accuracy, high rigidity, energy saving and zero maintenance rotary tables from Tsudakoma. The RG Series rotary tables are built using the new ball drive system featuring advantages like zero backlash, improved cycle times, energy conservation and a lifetime adjustment-free transmission system.

Three new models are available, with face-plate capacity of RG-160 being 6.3" (160mm), RG-250 with 8.27" (210mm) and RG-320 with 10.04" (255mm). The RG Series tables' are highly rigid and have increased clamp torque delivered by the new improved clamp system design. Various options such as chucks, tailstocks, support spindles, and faceplates are available. Pneumatic and Hydraulic rotary joints for automatic load and unload of the work piece are also available.

The new Ball Drive System Technology features high speed indexing and zero backlash that result in short cycle times.

    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.
