Table Balancing System

Customisation through multitask machining

Table Balancing System

CHALLENGE TO OVERCOME

The distribution of asymetric loads applyed to the turning tables generate runout effects that influence the machining accuracy.

SOLUTION

Thanks to the hydrostatic circuit of rotary tables, the load unbalance can be measured and the operator can be assysted to balance the system using additional external loads. This functionality is fully integrated in the CNC.

The system monitors the pressure of the hydrostatic chambers of the table.

Making a complete rotation of the table, the position of the gravity centre can be determined. The system proposes the position for a balancing mass.

BENEFITS

  • Improves the final accuracy of asymetric components to be turned
  • Easyer and faster balancing process
