5AX-200II DUAL-AXIS CNC ROTARY TABLE FROM
LYNDEX-NIKKEN IS DESIGNED FOR HIGH-SPEED ROTATION

Mundelein, IL – The 5AX-200II CNC Rotary Table from Lyndex-Nikken performs with high accuracy and the fastest rotating and tilting speeds in the industry while providing exceptional brake torque. Nikken’s unique patented carbide worm system assures wear resistance, rigidity, and the rapid speeds of this rotary table.

The carbide worm system uses a carbide worm screw and ion nitrided worm wheel, rather than a conventional bronze or bronze alloy actuation mechanism. The result is a reduction in friction and wear by up to eight times. This reduces backlash drastically when compared to the standard bronze worm gears of other manufacturers. The worm screw consists of a less brittle V-grade form of carbide, while the worm gear is ion nitrided to a depth of 0.1 mm and an external surface hardness of 68 Rc. These properties, as well as a steel way hardened to 58-60 Rc, all work to enhance system rigidity and longevity.

Allowing for the machining of five sides of a workpiece, the 5AX-200II is ideal for medical and aerospace 5-axis work. It features a drop trunion and clamping torque of 588/490Nm. The faceplate diameter of this rotary table is 200 and maximum work load is 176lbs. It offers secure gripping capability for unprecedented accuracy. Various options are available to meet workholding, fixturing and chucking requirements.
