B•A•S•E® ROTARY INDEXER

The B•A•S•E® Rotary indexer indexes a rotating head in either direction at nominal stepping rates of 250 msec. per 10º increments with 8 inch pound torque.
Operation combines the simplicity of non-servo programming with the reliability of pneumatics and features extreme accuracy through the use of "SHOT PINS" for both driving force and for holding position.
The user has an option of mounting his own device or selecting one of nine standard turrets below.
See data sheet on turrets.
B•A•S•E® Rotary incrementers are rated for the following turrets using B•A•S•E® series 2 grippers.

Specifications:
Materials:
High Strength Aluminum Alloy & Stainless Stl.
Sealing Element: Standard "O"rings
Max. Operating Pressure: 150 PSI
Operating Temp. range: -40ºF to 250ºF
Internal Lubrication: LO-PRO® Lube
Grease fitting for lubricating the driven section.
Stepping Increment:
10º per pulse.
Nom. stepping rate: 250 msec. per pulse
Incrementer weight: 1-½ lb.

OPERATION:
Rotating head moves clockwise with A-B-C-A-B-C pulses and
counterclockwise with A-C-B-A-C-B pulses. Maintaining pressure
in the extended position, locks the rotating head with "Shot Pin"
accuracy. Use simple non-servo commands from a timing device,
a programmable controller or a computer, see sample program to the right..
