60DF Index Drives

Starting and stopping a table, conveyor, or other piece of equipment at exact intervals is accomplished with 60DF index drives. Designed utilizing the mathematical rules of motion, index drives produce smooth, jerk free motions from one point to another along a manufacturing line.

Usually including a globoidal cam profile and a turret or output disc coupled with several followers, the 60DF Index Drive The heart of the system is the globoidal cam, whose well designed form controls the follower movement pattern. This cam profile is especially designed to produce the appropriate indexing pattern, therefore enabling seamless transitions between positions. Along with a housing structure giving strength and protection for the interior components, the index drive also features a high-torque input shaft driving the cam revolution.

Every follower is positioned around the cam profile such that, as the cam turns, it interacts and disengages with the followers in a predefined sequence. Engagement of the cam and follower produces a sequence of index steps and dwell periods during which the output disc remains stationary. This ordered series gives exact control over output shaft speed, direction, and location.

Depending on the needed application, the 60DF design usually provides many choices for the number of index stations. These index drives are flexible enough for diverse operational requirements since they may be set to offer varying indexing patterns and dwell times.
 

The circular movement of the globoidal cam and the matching movement of the followers define the main working concept of the 60DF Index Drive. The cam turned by the rotating input shaft interacts with the rollers on the followers. This engagement drives the turret or output shaft to rotate in increments, or indexes, matching the cam profile.

Every rotation cycle of the cam consists in two primary phases:

Under this phase, the cam profile drives the followers, rotating the output disc. The cam's shape determines the angle of movement; the rotation is highly under control.

Following every index, the cam's profile stabilizes so the followers may relax in place and lock the output disc into a fixed position. In applications where the apparatus must momentarily maintain its position before going to the next index, this dwell time is absolutely vital.

Over extended operation, the robustness of the drive's construction and the accuracy of the cam design guarantee that the 60DF Index Drive can sustain high repeatability and positional accuracy.

Hansheng, as a professional cam indexer manufacturer, 60DF cam drives are available in 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 36, 40, 48 and so on to support customization. The drive angle is usually 270°, 90°, 120°, 150°, 180°, 210°, 240°, 270°, 300° and so on. And support a variety of mounting methods. Customized according to customer needs, to provide you with one-stop service.

Offer clients tailored design services depending on their requirements. varied industries and applications for graduations have varied needs, hence unique cam graduations with cam curves, indexing techniques, pause times, and torque requirements can be built depending on the particular use.

Change the Indexer's number of indexing stations depending on production speed; design varying stop times and division angles based on this as well. Customize the divider's structural aspects to satisfy client device space needs. Structural improvement for particular settings like dust and corrosion prevention.
