Industrial News Buzz - IntelLiDrives expanded RotoRing Series now includes model RR 10-6 designed for applications requiring large center aperture.

 

RotoRing RR10-6 rotary tables provides superior angular positioning and are designed to eliminate backlash, friction and wear problems associated with worm, gear and belt drives.

 

With a ring cross-section profile of only 45 mm and clear aperture diameter 150 mm, rotary table model RR 10-6 combines axial brushless RotoLinear motor modules and planar air bearings integrated in a compact, direct drive configuration.

 

Large area air bearings provide sufficient payload stiffness and maximizes performance in respect to wobble and run-out.

 

Radially distributed RotoLinear motoring modules provide high positioning stiffness during rotary indexing and when installed on moving XY tables. These rotary tables provide unlimited rotation and are capable of precise positioning and velocity controls. RotoRings rotary tables can be mounted in any orientation and have "large open center design".

 

When used in processing of 6" semiconductor wafers, every area of the wafer can be accessed. In general automation applications, large open aperture offers the opportunity to access parts from inside and outside of the table simultaneously. This feature allows robotic devices, pick and place and ancillary tooling to be mounted inside the table, saving floor space and reducing parts handling with increased productivity.
