Bearing Concept - The fifth Generation of WEISS Rotary Indexing Tables

The new bearing arrangement and redesigned drive train increase the dynamics of the rotary indexing tables. For the axial bearing, WEISS uses its tried and true needle bearings, which the experts refined further. The flat, compact rotary indexing tables achieve a high rigidity and robustness. In the future, users can resort to a smaller size so that higher cycle numbers can be achieved at the same load. At low cycle numbers, the load can increase accordingly. This higher load is based on optimum alignment of the bearing and cam roller. This also ensures high axial and radial run-out as well as high repetition and positioning accuracy. Together, the drive cam, cam roller, bearing concept and material properties guarantee the renowned high precision and long service life typical of WEISS rotary indexing tables.
WEISS rotary indexing tables have been proven for decades, but particularly in view of the ongoing digital transformation of machine manufacturing, WEISS presents new features for them. The entire product group of fixed-cycled and freely programmable tables has been redesigned. New sizes extend the existing portfolio and improvements have been made to overall performance. The new generation makes it easier for users to access digitally supported production automation gradually. The combination of rotary indexing table, motor, controls and the digital services of today and the future is harmonized such that the solution is seamlessly integrated into an overall system and data are made transparent and easily accessible. At the same time, the performance data have significantly improved.
