Rotary table SX series

The Globoidal Slimdex SX/SP series is ideal for rotary table applications. These low-profile units feature globoidal cam-controlled motion for speed, precision and reliability. All at competitive prices compared to other air and hydraulic units!

All Slimdex models are available with a high performance drive package that includes: Indexers, worm gears (with or without integral slip clutch), AC or DC motors, and enclosed proximity switches. The SX series is suitable for general purpose speeds but with high capacity.

Here you will find the advantages of our indexers:

• Simplicity: There are only two basic elements, the curve and the turret.
• Reliability: The mechanisms are extremely robust and have a long service life is virtually maintenance-free.
• Self-locking: All mechanisms are self-locking in the dwell position and require no additional locking device. The turret withstands full torque in both directions when stationary.
• Reversibility: The mechanism works equally well in both directions of rotation.
• Smooth movement: The cam manufacturing process ensures smooth, shock-free transmission from follower to follower, with positive control throughout the movement.
• High speed: A cam system gives the designer the freedom to choose the displacement/time function. This has been used to apply acceleration characteristics that minimize the impact forces generated at high speeds by loads with high moments of inertia. Machines can be indexed much faster with Italplant indexers than with other systems.
• Efficiency: The use of low-friction Italplant driver bearings results in very high efficiencies, so that power losses in the cam and turret are negligible.
• Compactness" The load capacity in relation to the size is higher than any other type of indexing mechanism.
• Flexibility: By installing a cam with continuous motion, it is possible to change the output angle of the motion with a servo motor unit.
• Accuracy: Italplant's special manufacturing technique ensures that positional accuracy is maintained by eliminating backlash during the dwell time. This is possible thanks to the globoidal cam shape of our rotary tables. For this reason, Italplant rotary tables are certainly the most accurate in the field of cam mechanics.
