Manual Indexing Tables for the Machining of Large Parts



The MBT series of manual indexing tables incorporate a precision Hirth coupling (face gear) designed for positioning accuracy, repeatability and rigidity. "The tables are offered with either 360 teeth for 1° indexing or 72 teeth for 5° spacing, all within a radial accuracy of +/- 2 seconds of arc," said a company spokesperson. "Available in 10 different frame sizes, with tables ranging from 18-inch to 118-inch square or rectangular, all are prepared with precision 'T' slots, alignment slots, plus a center pilot bore for rapid and precise fixture locating."

The MBT series of pneumatic manual indexing tables are completely self-contained and are supplied with removable lifting bars which enable them to be easily moved on and off a machine or between different machines as needed. The spokesperson stated that many users leave the piece part and fixture on the table and move the entire assembly through a variety of machines and operations to reduce set-up time.

"With a load capacity of up to 50,000 lbs., there is a model suitable for most applications on horizontal boring mills, machining centers, milling and grinding machines, or grinding and gear cutting machinery," said the spokesperson.
