Barrel Indexing Systems, SD Series

Camfield Engineers offers Barrel Indexing Systems, SD Series. These are ideal for dial applications such as driving a linage or inline conveyor. The rigid housing design and stable bearing arrangement guarantees a smooth vibration free motion. This unit is also capable of high positional accuracies due to the large PCD of the roller followers but more suited for slower speeds with large mass movement. Features: cast iron alloy body; output shaft supported by oversized tapered-roller bearing; maximum station-to-station accuracy double extended input shaft; CNC cam profile milled and hardened high load capacity and oil bath lubrication; can be fitted with reducer and drive through hole output shaft can be provided; and all moving parts are mounted on tapered roller bearings, for maximum mechanical efficiency. Camfield indexers work equally well in reverse and are easily mounted in a number of positions. These indexers are self locking during the well phase due to the cam followers being preloaded against the straight section of the cam track, consequently there is no backlash when the output shaft is stationary, nor is a secondary locking device necessary. The number of stops ranges from 2 to 36. Applications: bottle filling, tube filling, capsule filling, laser marking, polishing assemble automation, cup printing, paper cup making, induction hardening SPMs, etc.
