Lyndex-Nikken's New CNC260 Rotary Table-Reduced Footprint, Added Capability

lydex



Mundelein, IL - New from Lyndex-Nikken, the compact CNC260 Rotary Table is packed with performance upgrades. Though featuring a smaller motor body, and a reduced overall footprint, the table diameter of the CNC260 is 10 mm larger than Lyndex-Nikken's earlier CNC250 model. Maximum workload on the table vertically and horizontally has improved by 25 kg and 50 kg respectively. Other enhancements include thrust loads of 25,480 N, 984 Nom and 3,332 Nom and work inertia of 3.2 kgom2, as well as a larger thru-hole.

An optional hydraulic braking system for the CNC260 provides five times the torque compared to rotary tables similar in size.


Supplied by Lyndex-Nikken, Nikken rotary tables are designed with a unique and patented carbide worm system. The carbide worm system incorporates a carbide worm screw and an ion nitrided worm wheel, rather than a conventional bronze or bronze alloy actuation mechanism. The result is a reduction in friction and wear by up to eight times. The worm screw consists of a less brittle V-grade form of carbide, while the worm gear is ion nitrided to a depth of 0.1 mm and an external surface hardness of 68 Rc. These properties, as well as a steel way hardened to 58-60 Rc, all work to enhance system rigidity and longevity, and make Lyndex-Nikken rotary tables ideal for high-speed, high-accuracy rotation.

Lyndex-Nikken offers a range of workholding attachments for its rotary tables, including 5C collet fixtures and air/hydraulic chucks.
