Colombo Filippetti - Indexing Rotary Tables - IR Medium Series

Product catalog summary
Overview of Colombo Filippetti IR Series Indexing Rotary Tables
The IR series Indexing Rotary Tables are designed to convert uniform rotary motion into one-way rotary indexing motion using a cylindrical cam drive. Key features include compact design, accurate positioning, self-locking stops, smooth operation, high bearing capacity, and low maintenance.
Design Principles
The tables feature a compact design with a rotary plate capable of supporting high axial and tilting loads. The camshaft is supported by oversized taper roller bearings, and the internal gearing uses a cylindrical cam with hardened profiles for high torque transmission and accurate plate locking during dwell periods.
Laws of Motion
Several standardized laws of motion are used, including Sinusoidal, Modified Sinusoidal, Modified Trapezoidal, and Modified Sinusoidal with Constant-Speed Section, each offering different acceleration characteristics for various applications.
Applications and System Components
The number of stations determines the angular travel, and the choice depends on the operations to be performed. The system includes elements for intermittent motion, power drive elements, and mechanisms for halting the power drive during dwell and displacement periods.
Specifications and Procedures
The document discusses the operation and optimization of indexing tables, focusing on reducing torque and optimizing the cycle of displacement and dwell periods. Adjustments can be made using a limit switch cam to optimize the time ratio between displacement and dwell.
Considerations for Size and Load
The choice of indexing table size is influenced by torque requirements due to inertia, friction, unbalanced weights, and external forces. Vibration control is crucial for bearing life, and rigidity is measured by the Rje/Ra ratio, with a recommended value of around 1.5 to 3.
System Components and Emergency Procedures
The system must be rigid to prevent dynamic shocks and vibrations. A worm speed reducer is preferred for its compactness and ability to stabilize rotational speed. In emergencies, a torque limiting coupling is necessary to prevent damage during abrupt stops or restarts.
Dynamic Capacities
The document includes a table of dynamic capacities, detailing the torque and cycle rates for different series and station numbers, crucial for selecting the appropriate indexing table based on specific application requirements.
Specifications and Static Load Bearing Capacities
Detailed specifications for various models of IR Indexing Rotary Tables are provided, including coefficients of velocity, acceleration, and transmission. The IR series tables use ball bearings or crossed cylindrical roller bearings to support high loads while maintaining accuracy.
Recommended Table Anchoring System
The tables are designed with a locating diameter for precise alignment and anchoring, with a standard securing arrangement involving four bolts.
Radial Loads and Versions
Guidelines are provided for managing radial loads on the cam input shaft. Various versions of the IR series tables are outlined, including standard, long shaft, reduction gear, and motorized versions.
Output Versions and Procedures
Different output versions such as VCS, VCT, VCP, and VCR are described. Instructions are provided for the installation of gear motors, which include a built-in clutch for safety against overload.
Standards and Norms
The document outlines the standard drilling of the rotary plate and provides tables with dimensions for different series. It also includes notes on optional features, such as securing and anchoring holes.
Recommendations and Key Data
For specific configurations, the document suggests using FC or FCR microgroups. Tables provide detailed dimensions for various components, and important notes include the option to order rotary plates without fixing holes.
Lubrication Guidelines and Ordering Code
The document specifies lubrication requirements for different assembly positions and provides an ordering code for IR tables to ensure accurate ordering.

Colombo Filippetti - Indexing Rotary Tables - IR Medium Series-3

COLOMBO FILIPPETTI "IR" series INDEXING ROTARY TABLES are mechanical units with perpendicular axes, which transform the uniform rotary motion of the input (drive) shaft into a one-way rotary indexing motion of the (driven) plate by means of a cylindrical cam drive with conjugate profiles and roller follower. A simple design, the direct transmission of motion: laws of motion with accelerations defined mathematically and tested over a large number of applications; the use of modern techniques in the projecting and engineering; thorough and regular inspection of the parts throughout the operations...

Project engineers who are called on to meet the requirements of high outputs are constantly being urged to provide increasingly faster and more reliable machines and automatic systems, which therefore require a thorough examination of the handling and displacing speeds of products and equipment. For many years, Colombo Filippetti have pioneered the design, engineering and application analysis of cam systems. The result is that C-F have adopted and standardised laws of motion which have the best kinematic and dynamic properties from both theoretical and practical viewpoints. This standardisation...

Colombo Filippetti - Indexing Rotary Tables - IR Medium Series-5

In rotary applications the number of stations is generally determined by the number of operations to be performed on the piece to be machined, including the loading and unloading stations, or else by the angular distance existing between the position where the workpiece is grasped and the position where it is released. In applications for conveyors and linear carousels, the determining element is the pitch or linear distance between two subsequent stations. In applications of this sort the correct choice must fall on tables with the lowest possible number of "S" stations consistent with any other...

Further checks must be carried out to ascertain whether the loads which the indexing plate, and particularly the main bearing, must support are admissible. Such loads may be broken down into axial, radial, tilting and tangential loads. Since all mechanical systems are elastic: when necessary to accelerate and decelerate masses, as in the case of the INDEXING TABLES, vibrations occur. Such vibrations, unless they are controlled, can have a critical effect on bearing life of the INDEXING TABLE. Control of vibration depends in part on the rigidity of the table support and anchor structure and partly...

IR401 IR601 IR801 > 3.2. - POWER DRIVE ELEMENTS The drive components, in addition to powering the INDEXING TABLES, must ensure that the input shaft turns at steady speed. This is necessary because, as we have seen, the torque required by the INDEXING TABLE is of variable magnitude throughout each cycle. This tends to affect the input shaft speed of rotation causing throbbing during the stop go cycle. Thus, we recommend the drive components to be rigid, oversized (compared with theoretical torque requirements) and of minimal backlash. The standard and best way to power the INDEXING TABLE, is to...

If the number of stops per minute is higher, one can go up to 70 to 90 actions a minute by using a clutch-brake unit fitted between the motor and the reduction gear which, while the motor turns continuously, alternately connects and disconnects/brakes the INDEXING TABLE CAM in its low torque area. It thus becomes simple to optimise the two cycle periods, making them functional: limiting the rest period to actual machining times, and the go time to the minimum required to effect the displacement of the masses. In an application executed following these criteria a safety factor is automatically...
