Electric indexes such as ABSODEX

For electric indexes such as ABSODEX, a mechanical positioning mechanism is necessary because the table turns in a free state if it is not equipped with a brake.

When a positioning mechanism is required

Positioning is required during assembly.

During index table assembly, the index table is used to position the workpiece detection sensors and other devices around the index table. If the index table is not in the standard position at that time, it cannot be set, so it is positioned and worked on.

Positioning is also necessary during debugging.

Rotational positioning is required to determine the origin during debugging.

Quote: What is debugging (from Wikipedia)

Finding and fixing bugs and defects in programs and electrical equipment to ensure that they work according to specifications.

Use on the user's side】 【User side

It may be required by the user after delivery to the user.

Reference] Specific method of positioning

Specific methods of positioning are as follows

There is no rule for the shape of the positioning, but use a long shaft with a hole directly through the index table,Shorter positioning shaft length (positioning distance) is better than positioning through to the trestleI think it is a good idea.

Also, since we want to position the shaft and bushing with a certain degree of accuracy, the shaft and bushing are also fitted together, but it is better to have a hollow shaft or air escape hole since the shaft may not fit without an air escape hole.(A set of index-specific positioning jigs would be helpful, though.)

That's it.
