GSA+ rotary tables and turrets for your machine
Review a GSA+ rotary table, indexer or turret against your machining task. Send the machine data to define the configuration, connections and equipment package.
CNC-120R–800R worm gear tables
The CNC-120R–800R family uses a worm gear drive with backlash adjustment. We review the table configuration, mounting arrangement and drive interface against the machining centre requirements.
- Worm gear rotary table family
- Backlash adjustment described by the manufacturer
- Specify table code, mounting position and motor
CNCT tilting rotary tables
CNCT-100–320 tables combine rotary and tilting axes. Selection starts with the workpiece envelope, available machine space and control concept. Identify the relevant axis when requesting a replacement component.
- Separate rotary and tilting axes
- CNCT-100–320 family
- Provide the workpiece and installation drawings
RCT roller gear cam tables
RCT-170R–320R belongs to the roller gear cam rotary table family. Keep this mechanism distinct from the worm gear CNC family when comparing drive arrangements or preparing a component enquiry.
- Roller gear cam drive family
- RCT-170R–320R models
- Match the complete configuration and drawing
NCF Hirth coupling indexers
NCF-250R–500R indexers use a three-piece Hirth coupling. The manufacturer states an indexing accuracy of ±5 arc seconds. Review the required indexing step and machine connection for the selected model.
- Three-piece Hirth coupling
- Manufacturer indexing accuracy ±5 arc seconds
- Specify indexing step and connection concept
DDR direct drive rotary tables
DDR175-50A–DDR210-100A is the direct drive rotary table family. An equipment enquiry should identify the operating cycle, drive interface and installation constraints before a configuration is selected.
- Direct drive rotary table family
- DDR175-50A–DDR210-100A designation
- Identify drive, feedback and installation interfaces
CLT servo and power tooling turrets
The CLT range includes servo turrets and power tooling turrets with VDI or BMT interfaces. State the exact turret code and tooling arrangement when planning a replacement or a machine integration.
- Servo turrets CLT-50S–450S
- VDI power tooling CLT-50SP–100SP
- BMT power tooling CLT-80SPB–200SPB
Start with the machining task
Send the component drawing and describe the planned operations. State whether the project needs indexed positioning, coordinated rotation, a change of machining angle or a tooling turret for a lathe. Include the machine layout, existing fixtures and available working envelope.
The workpiece should be considered together with its fixture, cutting tools and access to the surfaces being machined.
Separate the requirements for new equipment from the constraints of an existing machine. For a retrofit, identify the machine model, control system and available interfaces. Use the same technical brief when comparing several GSA+ families.
SpareX reviews the equipment and associated components against that brief so the installation requirements remain visible throughout the selection process.
Installation space and workholding
For a rotary table, provide the machine mounting layout, spindle position and available installation space. Show the workpiece with its fixture and identify the intended mounting orientation. If a supporting tailstock is needed, specify the centre position and length constraints.
GSA lists several tailstock configurations, so the selected support and its inclusion in the equipment package need their own review.
For a tilting arrangement, include the movement envelope of the workpiece and tools. A turret project needs the mounting interface, tooling concept and lathe layout. List the components already owned by the customer separately from those required in the new package.
This keeps the equipment scope and the mechanical interfaces tied to identifiable drawings.
Machine control and drive integration
Identify the control system, available axes and intended operating method before selecting a configuration. Indexed positioning and coordinated motion need different project requirements.
Provide the existing electrical diagrams, drive and feedback information, connector details and requirements from the machine engineering team. For a replacement, add readable nameplates for the associated components.
For NCF indexers, the manufacturer describes a fourth-axis connection or an M-code connection using a separate controller. The applicable arrangement must be reviewed for the selected machine configuration. DDR direct drive tables and CLT turrets also need a defined connection concept.
Record equipment, controls, cables and integration work as separate items in the technical scope when they are required.
Prepare a consistent technical brief
Combine the machine model, workpiece drawing, operation sequence, installation position and intended cycle in one enquiry. Distinguish mandatory parameters from changes that can be discussed.
Specify a table family if it is already defined, or describe the task so several configurations can be compared. For CLT tooling, include the tooling arrangement and the required VDI or BMT interface.
Identify drawing revisions and highlight dimensions that must remain unchanged. List any components already purchased and attach their documentation. If an alternative is acceptable, explain whether adapters or control adjustments may be considered.
A common technical brief lets equipment and components be compared against the same requirements and exposes interface questions before the package is agreed.
Equipment package and export shipment
List the main equipment, workholding, connection components and required spare items separately. State the quantity, purpose and destination of each item. For a production line project, show the boundary between the proposed device and the customer equipment.
Identify which work the customer engineering team will perform and which integration questions should be included in the project review.
For an export shipment, describe the consignee requirements for packing, identification and accompanying documents. Include unloading constraints and the planned acceptance procedure. If the package may be split into several shipments, state the acceptable sequence.
SpareX keeps the configuration enquiry connected with the transport brief so both refer to the same equipment scope.
Parts for installed equipment
For an installed table or turret, provide the complete model code, serial number and task description. A component enquiry should include its marking and assembly drawing position. If the machine has a fault, add control messages, photographs and the checks already performed.
State whether the enquiry concerns one component, a matched assembly or a complete replacement device.
Keep the documentation of the agreed configuration for future maintenance. It helps compare enquiries made at different times and identify changes to drives or connections. Define compatibility and technical acceptance criteria before reviewing a replacement.
Installation, adjustment and commissioning should be considered by the responsible machine specialists using the documentation of the installed machine.
