Simplex TX SeriesA new generation of indexing rotary tables

Tournes, 2015


In conventional rotary tables, the required motion profile with high acceleration,

dynamic braking and backlash-free dwell period is integrated into the timing roller in

the form of a milled curve .

In modern flex rotary tables with servo drive, the roller, which still exists, has a constant

incline and acts as an additional reduction gear stage.

The step roller has become obsolete!

No timing roller is needed in the rotary table

Basic structure – SOPAP Simplex rotary table series

The rotary table design without a roller consists in only 3 parts for the most basic

version:

1. Servo gear motor

2. Bearing

3. Pinion or toothed belt3
