Simple and Affordable Buffering and Separating
Rotary tables are ideal for maintaining continuous material flows. If workpieces need to be buffered, stored, staggered or separated between work steps, they can be stored on the table’s circular surface. The parts can then be discharged as needed and fed back into the process.
Rotary tables consist of a table top made from brushed stainless steel sheet, or from other function-specific top layers on request. The table top is driven indirectly by a timing belt, which employs a friction-locked connection. The base frame is built from Series 40 profiles as standard and equipped with height-adjustable levelling feet. Cover panels made from sheet metal or polycarbonate can be easily attached.
When designing guides such as intake guides and diverters, the weight and shape of the product being conveyed plays a major role. Round products, such as brake discs, ball bearings, cans or bottles, are the most suitable for this type of storage. mk therefore custom-designs the guide plates according to the customer’s specific requirements. With extensive experience in interlinking and conveying applications, mk can draw on a wealth of previously implemented solutions. For example, we can implement adjustable diverter plates that are integrated into the control system.
