Rotary Indexing Spms Are Most Suitable For Mass Production Of Components Which Require Several Operations In Sequence. The Principle Of Operation Is That Component Loading Operation Is Carried Out At First Station And Subsequent Stations Carry Out Further Operations, One By One At Each Of The Next Stages.
As All Operations Are Carried Out Simultaneously At Different Stations, The Total Cycle Time Is Substantially Reduced.
Depending On The Component Design, Any Of The Following Operations Can Be Combined In The Rotary Indexing Spm
- Drilling
- Tapping
- Counter Sinking / Counter Boring
- Reaming
- Milling Face / Slot
- Number Punching Etc.
