With the help of the flexible iglidur J universal sliding element from igus, users can now tailor the desired size of their rotary table bearings. Polymer rotary table (PRT) bearings from igus are available in seven sizes and three types. There is also an igus PRT bearing with a quadratic flange for direct assembly on a flat surface.
iglidur PRT is a rotary table bearing that is claimed to offer the advantages of igus polymer plain bearings. The sliding elements made of the tribo-optimised plastic iglidur J run totally maintenance and lubrication free. The counterfaces of the rotary table bearing are mostly made of aluminium and are hard anodised. As a result they also have good tribological and sliding features.
Rotary table bearings are often used for slow pivoting and rotating motions that are operated manually: the ready-to-install rotary table bearings have a self-locking effect, for example in case of pivoting control panels of machines. At clocked movements in assembly lines, they work perfectly for a long time, no matter how often the movement is performed.
Key features and benefits
The smallest iglidur rotary table bearings have an inside diameter of 20mm and the largest bearings have an inside diameter of 300mm. There are five other sizes are in between.
igus engineers have now developed a flexible plastic universal sliding element with which rotary table bearings in most different sizes can be achieved: by putting iglidur J sliding elements together, rotary tables from an inside diameter of 500mm up to almost infinite can be manufactured as desired. A rotary table bearing with a diameter of 1m that is built up on that basis can be loaded with up to 10 tonnes according to its model.
Large rotary tables are often required in solar technology, for assembly units or fixture construction. For such applications, igus not only delivers the sliding elements but also supports the design engineer with information about precise dimensions and tolerances. With it the assembled bearing unit can be used immediately.
All igus rotary table systems are wear resistant, corrosion free and easy to install — especially the new polymer rotary table bearing with square flange. It can be mounted on the flat surface with four screws only and without inlet holes. This avoids an additional distance ring. This rotary table has been designed for handling systems, the furniture industry and for display and advertising technology.
Along with the seven sizes, igus rotary table bearings are available in three versions: a robust standard version also with mounted gear wheel, a cost-effective variant made of one element and a lightweight low-cost-version with an inside diameter of 80mm.
