4TH AXIS ROTARY TABLE

Q1: What is a 4th Axis CNC Rotary Table?

A: A 4th Axis CNC rotary table is an additional axis added to a milling machine or machining center. It allows the workpiece to be rotated around the X, Y, or Z axis, enabling multi-sided machining, complex contouring, and improved machining efficiency.

Q2: What are the advantages of using a CNC rotary indexing table?

A: The main advantages include reducing multiple setups, achieving higher precision, saving machining time, and enabling 360° rotary positioning. It’s especially useful for complex parts, molds, and multi-surface machining.

Q3: How do I choose the right rotary table for my milling machine?

A: The selection depends on machine type (VMC, HMC, or 5-axis machine), table size, clamping system, load capacity, and required accuracy. We provide different models to match BT, HSK, and other spindle interfaces. 

Q4: What industries commonly use 4th Axis rotary tables?

A: They are widely used in aerospace, automotive, medical equipment, mold making, precision engineering, and energy industries.

Q5: What is the price range of a CNC 4th Axis rotary table?

A: The 4th Axis Rotary Table price varies based on size, accuracy, and features such as hydraulic clamping, pneumatic clamping, or through-hole design. Please contact us for a quotation.

Q6: Can I retrofit a 4th Axis rotary table to my existing VMC machine?

A: Yes. Most milling machines and VMCs can be upgraded with a rotary table. We provide technical support to ensure compatibility and smooth installation.

Q7: What maintenance is required for a rotary table?

A: Regular lubrication, cleaning of clamping surfaces, checking backlash, and ensuring proper alignment are essential for extending the life and precision of the rotary table.
