Product catalog summary

Technical Specifications and Dimensions

This section details the mechanical and performance parameters for indexing drive models 4.5D/4.5E/4.5R, 6D/6E/6R, 7D/7E/7R, and 8D/8E/8R. Key parameters include output allowable axial loads ranging from 784 N to 2156 N, indexing accuracy varying by dwell count (e.g., ±60 seconds for 4.5D, ±30 seconds for 7D at 1 dwell), repetitive accuracy, product weights from 30 kg to 63.7 kg, and consistent gray housing color. Additional specifications cover maximum bending forces, torques, radial loads, static torque, torsional rigidity, and inertia values.

Mounting and Installation

Precise mounting hole locations and surface dimensions are specified with tight tolerances (h6, h7, h8 fits). Illustrations provide guidance for mounting motors, torque limiters, reducers, and accessories. Motors are typically mounted on sides T or U. Torque limiters (6TF, 6TC, 7TF, 7TC) and reducers (R48, R65) are compatible with various models, with TC-type torque limiters and reducers requiring collars for proper installation.

Lubrication and Maintenance

The 4.5D model is permanently grease-lubricated and maintenance-free. Other models specify oil plug, oil level, and drain locations, with oil capacities dependent on cam profile and number of cam followers. Proper lubrication is critical for performance and longevity.

Motor and Gearhead Specifications

Specifications for Oriental and Panasonic induction motors include rotational speeds, allowable torque, output power, capacitor values, starting torque, voltage, current, and rated torque. Gearhead models and reduction ratios must be specified when ordering. Timing transmission details cover pulley reduction ratios, number of teeth, and belt types.

Accuracy and Performance

Indexing accuracy is provided for 1 to 4 dwell points, with repetitive accuracy typically at 15 seconds. Torsional rigidity and static torque values are included to assess load performance.

Precautions and Recommendations

Always specify gear reduction ratio with the indexing drive code when ordering.
Use collars when mounting torque limiter TC-types and reducers.
Check oil levels according to cam profile and follower count.
Mount motors on designated sides (T or U) as per installation figures.
Consult manufacturer brochures for detailed motor specifications.

Summary of Critical Data Tables

Tables 4.5D-1, 6D-1, 7D-1, and 8D-1 provide comprehensive mechanical and performance data per model series. Tables 4.5D-2/3 and 6D-2/3 list motor allowable torque values at various speeds and gear ratios.

Illustrations and Figures

Figures 4.5D-1 to 4.5D-5, 6D-1 to 6D-5, 7D-1 to 7D-4, and 8D-1 to 8D-3 include dimensional drawings, mounting hole locations, accessory mounting, lubrication points, and motor mounting configurations, supporting precise installation and integration.

Mounting Positions and Precautions

Reducers can be mounted in 16 different positions, each with specific codes for indexing, oscillating, and roller drives.
Oil plug, oil level, and drain points correspond to mounting positions and are detailed in figures (e.g., 11D-3, 14D-3).
Oil levels depend on cam profile and follower count.
Collars are required for certain torque limiters and reducers.

Dimensional Data and Mounting Hole Locations

Detailed dimensional drawings specify shaft diameters, bolt sizes, and surface dimensions for each model series (e.g., Figures 8D-1, 11D-1, 14D-1).

Oil Capacity and Lubrication Points

Oil capacities range from approximately 0.9 to 10 liters depending on model and mounting position.
Standardized oil plug, oil level, and drain locations are indicated in model-specific figures.
Maintaining correct oil level based on cam profile and follower count is essential for optimal operation.
