Oscillating indexer

parallel-shaftfor heavy loads

IMC Parallel Indexers use a pair of conjugate plate cams with yoke-mounted followers parallel to the axis of the output. The input and output shafts are parallel, in a configuration that means there are no ribs on the cam and no reversal of the cam followers. Rates of more than 1,000 indexes per minute are possible with parallel indexers. Parallel Cam High Speed Capability (with non-reversing cam followers) High Load Capability (with oversized cam followes) Shock Resistant (more robust) Motion Flexibility (oscilling and complete motions) due to conjugate cam geometry 1 - 8 stop range and oscillating motions. IMC Parallel Index Drives are ideal for high-speed applications or for actuation-type applications such as driving a linkage or a conveyor. Parallel Index Drive features include: Parallel Cutaway (8K) Hardened and ground conjugate cams Yoke-mounted, preloaded cam followers are non-reversing for high capacity and speed capability Whole or fractions stops, oscillating and complex custom motions are available Long Transfer Distances achieved with simple linkages. Preloaded, tapered roller bearings for rigidity and backlash-free operation.
