Rotary Actuators and Positioners
Automation For Rotary Motion
To achieve rotary motion, Cross Company pairs a rotary table with a servo motor, drive and control to create a complete rotary actuation system. This allows greater flexibility for your rotary positioner because you’re not tied to just one or two positions. Some examples of rotary actuation that Cross Company has worked on recently include:
- Robotic cells which require precise rotary indexing for manufacturing stations
- Direct drive motors moving large loads at different speeds, yet running continuously to match the speed of the manufacturing line
- A rotary stage running at speed
Benefits of Cross Precision Motion Control
Cross Company’s Automation Group works with several different manufacturers of motors, drives and rotary tables. We work with you to understand your application and then we size and specify the best combination for your particular need. We have literally decades of experience working with rotary actuators, so we can specify a robust solution optimized for the application.
There are many features of rotary actuators that make them essential components for a variety of automation systems. This can include rotating at a variety of speeds, exerting a variety of torques, high levels of accuracy, anti-backlash, and a range of control methods (manual, PLCs, motion controllers, etc).
