Rotary Couplings are suited for turret style CNC lathes.
September 17, 2010 -
Rotary coupling system allows use of Micro Line high-speed spindles in turret style machines. Providing support for all electrical and pneumatic requirements for high-speed spindles, models are rated to IP67 and support either 2 or 4 spindles. Use of positive air over-pressure prevents coolant/chip contamination, and pneumatic supply within coupling provides air-seal to spindles. Mounted to CNC lathe turret face, couplings are able to rotate up to 500 rpm.

IBAG North America Adds New Rotary Couplings for Turret Style CNC Lathes
North Haven, CT ... IBAG North America has added a new rotary coupling system that allows the use of their popular Micro Line high speed spindles in turret style machines. The rotary coupling provides support for all electrical and pneumatic requirements for the high speed spindles, with models available to support 2 or 4 spindles. Built with a IP67 rating, the new rotary coupling uses positive air over-pressure to prevent any coolant or chip contamination, and can rotate up to a maximum speed of 500 RPM. The pneumatic supply within the coupling also provides air-seal to the spindles. The rotary coupling is mounted to the CNC lathe turret face. An anti-rotation shaft prevents the coupling from rotating as the turret spins.
Any IBAG Micro Line spindle can be used with the coupling, providing speeds up to 100,000 RPM for micro-milling and small diameter drilling applications. Ideal for medical machining on Swiss-type lathes, custom spindle mounting brackets can be used to allow cross-drilling or milling at unique angles. IBAG offers fixed right-angle spindles, as well as adjustable spindles in diameters up to 25 mm, and power up to 250 watts
IBAG North America offers a full line of machine-tool high-speed spindles with complete repair and rebuilding services, as well as vacuum workholding systems to serve metalworking manufacturers and precision product and component applications.
