Rotary Tables provide 5-axis capabilities.

Press Release Summary:




Models TR160, TR210, and TR310 are 160, 210, and 310 mm rotary tables, with capacities of 80, 200, and 500 lbs, respectively. Dual-axis trunnions bolt directly to table of 3-axis VMC to provide 5-axis motion or to position parts to nearly any angle for multi-sided machining. All three tables are driven by brushless servo motors on both axes, and provide ±120° of tilt on A axis and 360° of rotation on B axis. Units can easily be removed when not needed.

Convert Your 3-Axis Mill to a 5-Axis Workhorse



Five-axis machining, once the exclusive realm of high-end machine shops and aerospace contractors, is seeing much more common use today as a means to reduce setup time and increase accuracy for complex parts. While the benefits are undeniable, investing in a 5-axis machine tool can be prohibitively expensive, especially for smaller shops.

The new TR160, TR210 and TR310 dual-axis trunnion rotary tables from Haas Automation, however, put 5-axis capabilities well within reach of the average job shop. These simple bolt-on solutions for machining complex parts can turn almost any 3-axis mill into a 5-axis workhorse - and at a fraction of the cost of a 5-axis machining center. They are ideal for such industries as model making, tool & die and aerospace, where complex shapes, multi-sided machining and 5-axis work are the norm.

Available in three sizes (160 mm, 210 mm and 310 mm platters) to fit almost any work envelope, the TR series dual-axis trunnions bolt directly to the table of a 3-axis VMC to provide 5-axis motion or position parts to nearly any angle for multi-sided machining. Yet, like all Haas rotary tables, they can easily be removed when not needed.

All three trunnion tables are driven by powerful brushless servo motors on both axes, and provide ±120° of tilt on the A axis and a full 360° of rotation on the B axis. Each features a precision-ground platter of heat-treated 4140 alloy steel, with six standard T-slots (0.625") equally spaced at 60 degrees for easy fixturing. Three servo control configurations are available, making the TR160, TR210 and TR310 easy to interface to almost any machine, whether it's a Haas or another brand.

The smallest of the TR series, the TR160, features a compact footprint of just 39" x 14", and has a maximum part capacity of 80 lb and a maximum part swing of 17.5". The TR210 features a 200 lb capacity and 23.5" swing, and the TR310 handles parts up to 500 lb and has a 31" swing. Platter speeds for the three models are 80°/sec, 60°/sec and 50°/sec respectively. Additional specifications are available online at http://www.haascnc.com/products/rotary/.

Like all Haas products, the TR series trunnion tables are built entirely in the USA, from top-quality materials and to exacting specifications. This guarantees the exceptional accuracy and reliability Haas is known for.

If you're searching for an economical solution to 5-axis machining, look no further. The new TR series Trunnion Rotary Tables from Haas are the answer. For more information about the Haas Automation or Haas products, call 800-331-6746, or visit www.HaasCNC.com on the Internet.
