DESTACO's New GTB Series Servo Positioning Rotary Tables Offer Exceptional Torque in a Smaller, Lighter Design than Competitive Models
New Rotary Tables Expand DESTACO's Product Range Options, Advancing Solutions to the Market.
DESTACO, the industrys leading global provider of high-performance automation, workholding and containment solutions, is excited to announce the launch of its new family of GTB Series Servo Positioning Rotary Tables.
"DESTACO has a 100-year history and an outstanding track record of developing highly engineered solutions to help our customers around the world achieve unparalleled precision and productivity," said Byron J. Paul, President of DESTACO. "The GTB Series Rotary Tables expands our technology base and advances our solutions to the market. Our customers will have a full range of options - from traditional, proven mechanical fixed-function rotary tables to fully flexible servomotor-based rotary tables for use in changing operating environments and applications."
The GTB Series features a roller-gear drive and is a lifetime-lubricated solution that has been designed and engineered to deliver high torque, with high speed and motion flexibility to meet the demanding payload requirements in a wide variety of general industrial rotary table applications. Available in four models - GTB40, GTB63, GTB80 and GTB100 - the GTB units are 34% lower in height and 64% lower in weight when compared to competitive models, while being able to deliver 1.4 times the torque. The units lifetime-lubrication design also eliminates the need for maintenance.
"The new GTB Series rotary tables feature the latest design technologies to produce a very high torque that is comparable to much larger units, but in a very compact size," said Matt Girand, DESTACOs Vice President of Research, Development and Engineering. "In addition, the units can be mounted in both vertical and horizontal orientations, which is a significant benefit since the user does not have to worry about changing the application or purchasing a different unit."
In addition to flexible orientation, each model can support a wide range of off-the-shelf servomotors for maximum motion flexibility and performance. Each size features a direct motor coupling that eliminates backlash, which is a crucial consideration in high-accuracy rotary table applications. An optional gear reducer is available for applications that require increased torque.

Schmalz Technology Development - The Right Gripper for Every Task
In order to interact with their environment and perform the tasks, lightweight robots, like all industrial robots, depend on tools - and in many cases these are vacuum grippers. These form the interface to the workpiece and are therefore a decisive part of the overall system. With their help, the robots can pick up, move, position, process, sort, stack and deposit a wide variety of goods and components. Vacuum gripping systems allow particularly gentle handling of workpieces, a compact and space-saving system design and gripping from above. Precisely because the object does not have to be gripped, the vacuum suction cupenables gapless positioning next to each other.
