CNC Rotary Table Explained. Robot vs Automatic Tool Changer Race. Table-type Horizontal Boring Mill The table’s precision is extremely exact ( mm / 1 meter radius); there is no stick-slip in positioning; and, thanks to its simple design and high-quality parts, it requires the absolute minimum service and maintenance. FERMAT’s CNC rotary table consists of three main components, a bed, a slide which rides the hardened boxways, and the rotary, table-top clamping plate. The clamping plate, which sits on a gigantic cross-roller bearing allowing a massive load capacity and ensuring minimum resistance, is turned using two pinions, each driven by their own servomotor, in a master-slave function that eliminates backlash. FERMAT’s WFT 13 CNC, , with its standard rotary table holding up to 20 metric tons, allows for high-precision machining and even contouring of heavy workpieces, utilizing four linear axes (X, Y, Z, and W) and a rotary axis (B).
