A rotary table is used in precision metalworking industry. It is made of a solid base that can be clamped on to the other fixture. In simple words, rotary tables are discs, which rotate freely or by using a worm (hand crank).

Rotary tables are used in different applications like machining, assembly and automation. Other than this, these tables find usage in assembly and equipment positioning. When you are buying a table, there are a few things to consider. These include:

Diameter of the Table

The worktable diameter is the surface area of the rotary table.

Measurement of Through-Hole Diameter

It is the diameter of the breadth of the hole present at the center of the workstation.

Maximum Radial Load

When the load is pushed against the table, the heaviest amount it can support on vertical or horizontal axis is the maximum radial load.

Maximum Axial Load of the Table

Maximum weight tables are able to bear at the time of concentric operations.

Table Rotation Speed

Maximum rotation speed set b the manufacturer.

Minimum Indexing Increment

Smallest angle setting on the table.

Rotary tables can be mounted in horizontal, inverted or vertical styles. When the table is mounted horizontally, it is in a flat, horizontal and upright position. In vertical mounting, surface of the table runs up and down. When it is inverted, the table is upside down in a horizontal angle.

The location of drive on rotary table depends on the mount. You can place the drives below, behind, on the top or on the side of the table. When the drive is mounted horizontally, it is located above the surface of the table. When the table is mounted horizontally, the side-mounted drive is placed to the side of the surface of the table.

The rotary table can be driven manually, pneumatically, hydraulically and electrically. If you are driving manually, the table should be loosened and it must be turned manually with the crank.

Benefits of a Rotary Table

A rotary table is a precision device that is ideal for work positioning. Such table is used in metal works as it makes the job of drilling easier for the metal worker. Other than this, the metal worker can also cut the piece on fixed axes during specific interval with the help of a rotary table.

Rotary tables are available in varieties. Some of these tables use indexing plates for operations related to indexing whereas, others enables the user to fit dividing tables and leads to a better work positioning.

What make rotary tables important for metal industry are its numerous uses. Here is a list of few:

·         Rotary tables are used for machining spanner flats on bolts.

·         For cutting round pieces.

·         For drilling holes at equal distance on circular flanges.

·         A metal worker can also create large diameter holes on milling machines with these tables.

·         Rotary tables are also used for cutting complex curves and mixing helixes.

There are different parts and components in rotary tables and all have different functions. Work table is the most important part of the table. It has spherical working area with four t-slots, which are used for mounting work pieces. There is a clank handle on rotary tables that enables the user to rotate the tables in clockwise and anti-clockwise directions.

Rotary tables also have two bases, one is meant for vertical rotation whereas the other one is meant for horizontal rotation.

At times, rotary tables are also mounted flat on planes similar to the way cutters are placed on vertical milling machines.

If we look closely, rotary tables play a crucial role in the metal industry. Because they are used to perform different jobs, there is a specialized variety of a rotary table to meet industry specific needs.
