Continuous camshaft rotation which is used in fast applications when the machine cycle is carried out in one revolution of the main shaft. Each single work operation is synchronised within a particular sector of main shaft rotation. This type of operation is indicated for machines whose motions are actuated only by mechanical drives. 2. Operation By electrical control which is used in all applications when a long dwell time is required owing to the length of the production times necessary. By this means of operation, stopping is controlled by a microcam mounted on the table input shaft. This...

3. Danger areas Since this is a positive-action device, a tool plate with tools mounted on the table moves only within its area. Its motion may be halted only by switching off the driving motor or following break-downs in parts of the drive. The torque limiter is solely to protect the mechanism and not persons. Therefore, the danger area should not be accessed whilst the device is in operation. For maintenance operations, the motor must be switched off before crossing into the danger area.

6. Mounting instructions 7. Using the self-braking motor RIGIDIAL indexing tables can be mounted in any position. When mounting, the shafts of the device or plate should not be submitted to higher torque than prescribed. Mount the units in such a way that they are anchored rigidly to the base. Set the position using two pins. The thread of the anchor screws should be treated with anaerobic material to prevent easy unscrewing. Check the presence of lubricant: appropriate labels are affixed on RIGIDIAL tables to indicate when filling was effected. When mounted, check the position at which the limit...

9. Commissioning All RIGIDIAL tables are supplied with Long-Life lubrication on delivery, and are therefore ready to go into operation. The lubricant used is ISO VG 150 mineral oil. The type and presence of lubricant in the box is in any case indicated by means of a yellow label glued to it. The torque limiter is calibrated despatch. It may be set for the application advised or to the maximum permitted for the assembly, if application advice, is lacking. 10. Maintenance RIGIDIAL indexing tables have no special requirements with regard to maintenance, but they must be inspected regularly for leakage...
