Rotary indexing table

This application example shows the possible use of 2 channel pairs for 4 positions of a rotary indexing
table. It involves the use of 4 N/O contacts that alternately signal the rotational position of the rotary
indexing table.

The other channel pairs on the input module can be used to evaluate other sensors on a loading and
an unloading station.
When connecting the sensors (e.g. SMT-8M-A), the use of pre-assembled Y-cables from the NEBU
modular cable system is recommended è www.festo.com/catalogue.
è Fig. 19 shows the circuitry of channel pairs with independent sensors. This involves the channel
pairs being set with the following function modes:

This application example can also be implemented using electronic sensors (2-wire or 3-wire sensors).
