What are cam index drives?

Two plate cams connected to the input shaft plus a supporting spider for the cam follower on the output shaft make up the PU175DS Series Cam Index Drives. This design guarantees exact indexing and control in many different automated applications.

 

What are the features of Cam Index Drives?

Dual-disc cam synchronous control

Using a dual-disc cam architecture, the PU175DS series Cam Index driving offers smoother intermittent driving over two perfectly docked cam discs. This design guarantees homogeneous power distribution across the gearbox process in addition to great precision positioning ability. Under high speed or a heavy load, the dual-disc design may provide higher power transmission stability and load carrying capability than the single-disc design.

01

Highly customized stepper output

The PU175DS series Rotary Cam Indexers' architecture lets various stepper outputs be tailored to fit requirements. The PU175DS series can readily adjust whether it comes to exact management of little steps or quick switching of big steps. Especially appropriate for manufacturing lines requiring quick and exact positioning, its versatile stepper output helps the device to achieve optimal functioning in many production conditions.

02

High load-bearing capacity

Strong loads and strong radial pressure are what the PU175DS series Cam Index Drive is meant to resist. Its output shaft can resist a maximum torque of 185 kgf-m, an acceptable radial load of 1,000 kgf, and has a permissible thrust load of up to 920 kgf. Suitable for heavy-duty conveying systems, automated assembly, and material handling, the input shaft also boasts a strong load capacity, supporting a thrust load of 920 kgf and an axial stress of 1.7 × 10⁴ kgf, so enabling stable operation of the equipment under heavy load working conditions.

03

High-temperature operation capability and temperature-controlled lubrication system

Appropriate for changing industrial conditions, the PU175DS series can run reliably at very severe temperatures of "-20°C to 100°C". Simultaneously, the equipment features a unique lubrication system for high-temperature environments, which can preserve the stability of the lubricant under high temperature conditions, so extending the service life of the equipment and lowering friction and wear generated by temperature fluctuations.

FAQ

Q: What is the load carrying capacity of the cam indexer?

A: The PU175DS Series Cam Index Drives are designed to withstand large loads and vertical radial pressures, making them particularly suitable for applications with high load carrying capacity requirements.

Q: How should the cam indexer be stored when not in use for a long time?

A: If prolonged storage is required, the device should be fully filled with the recommended lubricant and the reducer worm shaft should be rotated periodically to prevent seals from sticking. If stored outdoors or in an environment with high humidity, additional rust protection measures are also required.

Q: How does the PU175DS Series Cam Index Drive work?

A: The PU175DS series cam indexer consists of two disc cams fixed to the input shaft and a spider body that supports the cam follower to the output shaft. This indexing drive is designed for intermittent indexing and is particularly suitable for conveyor belt drives over long distances or intermittent indexing where long stops are made.

Q: How do I maintain my PU175DS Series Cam Index Drive?

A: The cam indexer needs to check the oil level regularly, change the lubricating oil, lubricate all grease joints, and check the fastening bolts. In addition, the cam follower should be inspected after every 8000 hours of operation.

Q: Why would heavy-duty applications call for the PU175DS Cam Index Drive?

A: Built to resist large loads, the PU175DS Series Cam Index Drives have ratings:

Q: Output shaft torque: 185 kgf-m.

A: Output shaft radial load: 1,000 kgf.
Input axial stress of 1.7 x 10⁴ kgf
These features make it perfect for utilisation in conveyor systems, material handling, and other industrial environments where conventional indexing drives would have difficulty under significant weight.

Q: In high-temperature surroundings is the PU175DS Cam Index Drive applicable?

A: Indeed, the PU175DS Series Cam Index Drive can run in surroundings with temperatures between -20°C and 100°C. Higher temperatures call for the usage of certain lubricants designed for demanding circumstances. The lubricating system should be examined more often in continuous high-temperature operations to guarantee dependable and smooth running.

Q: At what highest speed the PU175DS Series can run?

A: Up to 200 rpm (rotations per minute) the PU175DS Series Cam Index Drive can run. Usually, nevertheless, the best efficiency comes from slower speeds-especially in uses with intermittent indexing like automated assembly lines or conveyor systems. Higher rates might wear on components and compromise the indexing precision.

Q: For the PU175DS Series Cam Index Drive, what are recommended lubrication intervals?

A: Every six to twelve months or after 8,000 hours of use, lubrication should be examined and changed. More regular lubrication checks might be needed in high-load, high-speed, or severe temperature settings. Use the recommended lubricants always to prevent damage to the indexing mechanism.
