Oxnard, CA - Adding a 4th-axis rotary table or indexer to a machining center is a sure way to boost productivity, reduce setups and increase accuracy on multi-op parts. Haas Automation, Inc., has increased the performance of its core rotary products to boost customer's productivity and yield a faster return on investment.
The performance gains come in the form of increased speeds, higher accel/decel rates and reduced brake dwell time. Depending on the model, speeds have increased 25 to 34%, accelerations have increased 33 to 125% and brake dwell times have been reduced 89 to 95%. The Haas rotary products offering these higher performance levels are the HA5C, HRT160, HRT210 and HRT310, as well as their respective SP models, and the HRTA5 and HRTA6.*
Each rotary table was optimized to gain the highest possible performance, without sacrificing reliability or longevity. Haas engineers optimized oil patterns to reduce drag, and modified the brake systems for faster response. Combined with higher accel/decel rates, these mechanical enhancements yield much faster overall speeds and shorter cycle times.
Haas Automation has been a leader in 4th- and 5th-axis parts positioning since introducing the world's first fully programmable collet indexer in 1983. Today, Haas manufactures more than 35 models of precision rotary table to meet the needs of every shop. Built in the USA, all Haas rotary products are backed by the worldwide network of Haas Factory Outlets - the most extensive system of support and service in the industry.

*Performance models are designated with a P1 after the model name on the product number plate (e.g., HRT210 P1). To take advantage of the increased performance, updated parameters are required in the Haas mill or servo control box. |
