Dual-Axis Rotary Table for Five-Axis Machining
The TRT70 dual-axis rotary table from Haas Automation delivers high speed and accurate positioning for 3+2 and full five-axis machining of small, complex parts.
The TRT70 dual-axis rotary table from Haas Automation delivers high speed and accurate positioning for 3+2 and full five-axis machining of small, complex parts. The unit’s compact size and light weight make it a dual-axis solution, even for small machining centers.
The table uses brushless servomotors to provide 60 foot-pounds (81.3 Nm) of torque on the tilt axis and 40 foot-pounds (54.2 Nm) on the rotary axis. Indexing speeds of 410 degrees/sec on the tilt axis and 620 degrees/sec on the rotary axis promote shorter cycle times. The unit provides ±120 degrees of tilt and 360 degrees of rotation to position parts to multiple angles for machining. The precision-ground 70 mm (2.76") platter features multiple bolt patterns and a precision through-bore for versatile fixturing, and will swing parts as large as 4.0" (102 mm) in diameter. The maximum platter capacity is 3 lbs (1.4 kg).
