Parallel Cam Indexers, PC Type

Packam Controls Private Limited offers Parallel Cam Indexers, PC Type. Parallel indexers have the input and output shafts located parallel. They are commonly used to drive feed conveyors or packaging machinery when a line shaft needs to index. Only 1 to 8 fixed stops and oscillating motions are available. Feeding and idle times are usually configured to match the supported machinery with the line shaft or drive motor running continuously. Specifications: mechanism type – parallel; arrangement of shafts – parallel; number of stops – 1 to 8, with additional reduction gear, higher number of stops possible; indexes/minute – < 2000; indexing angle – 90°-270°, depending on number of stops; motion law – MS (standard), MT, CYC, MSC (10-66), MSH, SHM, polynomial (to suit customer specific motion requirements, especially with higher speeds for low vibration motion); oscillating motion – up to ca. 45° indexing angle special motion profiles possible; and precision of indexing – >30" ca. 0.03 mm on a radius of 200 mm. Features: smooth indexing for oscillatory movement; hardened and ground steel cam; high precision heavy-duty cam follower; rigid housing – zero vibrations; and can operate at high speeds. Applications: belt and chain conveyors; printing machines; stacking and feeding of sheets; inspection equipments; pick & place applications; and flow dividers. Packam indexing units are rigid, high accuracy and virtually maintenance free. Every component is finished to micron accuracy, which ensures zero backlash and long operational life.
