What is A Precision Cam Divider

 

Widely employed in automation systems, Cam Divider-also known as intermittent divider-is a high-precision mechanical component. The features and basic value of cam indexer will be thoroughly examined in this paper from the angles of its working principle, key characteristics, application areas, and selection criteria.

 

The 110DS offers significant advantages, including high step positioning accuracy, stable high-speed operation, large transmission torque, and self-locking during positioning. It is an ideal replacement for traditional intermittent mechanisms such as sheave mechanisms, incomplete mechanisms, and ratchet mechanisms.

 

 

How does a cam indexer work?

 

Mechanistically based on mechanical cam and roller connection, the cam indexer is Driven by the continuous rotation of the input shaft, it sends motion to the output turntable, therefore driving the specifically engineered cam curve to provide intermittent indexing motion.

Important parts are output turntable, needle bearing, indexing cam.
Motion characteristics: positioning accuracy can reach ±0.01° or higher; input rotational constant; output intermittent positioning.

Its original mechanical design offers better dependability and extended life performance by avoiding the complexity of conventional motor-driven indexing techniques.

Among its special transmission features are computer program control and a 360-degree zero backlash curve on the intermittent cam divider. High-speed, high-load capacity, near-origin return, noiseless operation, HRC60 degree grinding, rolling bearing friction, and no cumulative error define it. Installing it is simple thanks to the basic framework and screw drive design.

Which main factors should one consider while deciding on a Cam Divider?

 

Several elements should be taken into account holistically while selecting an appropriate cam indexer:

 

Number of indexing stations

 

Choose the suitable number of indexing stations (usually 2, 4, 6, 8, etc.), per application criteria.

 

Load capacity

 

Make that the cam indexer's load capability satisfies the equipment specifications including radial and axial loads.

 

Accuracy of Indexing

 

Choose the suitable model depending on the needs for positioning accuracy of the particular application situation.

 

Input momentum

 

The indexing efficiency will depend on the input shaft speed; hence, an acceptable speed should be built in line with the general equipment beat.

 

Method of installation

 

Pay close attention to the vertical, horizontal, etc. equipment layout and cam indexer installation form.

 

FAQ

Q: Is the indexing accuracy of ±30 arc seconds for a precision cam indexer "single-shot accuracy" or "long-term cumulative accuracy"?

A: It's long-term cumulative accuracy. Under rated operating conditions (load ≤ 80% of rated value, speed 5-600 rpm), after 10,000 hours of operation, the indexing accuracy remains stable within ±30 arc seconds, with repeatability ≤15 arc seconds (far exceeding the industry average of ±60 arc seconds).

Q: Do the "rated values" for radial and axial loads refer to momentary or continuous loads? What are the effects of overloading?

A: Rated values (e.g., 500 kgf radial load, 350 kgf axial load) refer to continuous operating loads. If transient loads occasionally exceed 10% of the rated value (such as short-term shocks), they can be cushioned by the highly rigid structure (integrated cast housing).
Continuous overloads exceeding 20% will accelerate localized wear on the cam-roller meshing surfaces, potentially degrading accuracy to ±50 arc seconds within three months and shortening life by over 40%.

Q: Are there strict requirements for input shaft-motor coaxiality during installation? What are the consequences of excessive misalignment?

A: Strict requirements: Radial coaxiality must be ≤0.05mm, and axial perpendicularity must be ≤0.1mm/m.
Excessive misalignment (e.g., radial >0.1mm) can cause uneven force on the input shaft, resulting in abnormal vibration during operation (especially noticeable at speeds ≥300rpm). Long-term use can lead to uneven wear on the cam surface and a rapid decrease in accuracy.
