Table transfer and mounting to machine tool 1) When transporting the unit, hook ropes to the eyebolts attached and transport the unit carefully, not giving a shock.
When transporting a pallet on which NC rotary table is mounted, take CAUTION measures against over-turning or drop. Transporting the pallet with NC rotary table mounted unstably may cause the NC rotary table to overturn and then to drop from the pallet. Disconnect electric cables and working fluid piping when relocating the CAUTION NC rotary table.

This unit is installed on the machining centers, and on its table surface the chuck or fixture is attached to clamp the workpiece. It indexes the angle of machining position by the control of machining center or Kitagawa’s own controller. During the machining, the working fluid is supplied to retain the workpiece.
8. Table Clamp 8-1. Precautions for table clamp Be sure to rotate the table with the table unclamped and use the table CAUTION with it clamped when machining after positioning. If the table is operated by mistake, take care since the worm wheel may be damaged. Check the signals of pressure switch to check Clamp/Unclamp operations.
8-4. Check device for Clamp/Unclamp To proceed a secure work, be sure to use Clamp/Unclamp Check signals. (See Fig.1) Solenoid valve SP4: Unclamp Check Solenoid valve SP2: Unclamp Check SP3: Clamp Check SP1: Clamp Check Inside view of tilting axis motor case Inside view of rotating axis motor case Fig.1 The set pressure values of pressure switches are as follows:...
When performing the maintenance work, shut off the power (primary power supply) of the machining center or Kitagawa’s own controller to set the pressure adjusting valve of air combination that supplies the air to the NC rotary table to 0 MPa or shut off the power of the air compressor to exhaust the compressed air, so as to stop the supply of the working fluid.
11. Backlash Adjustment of Worm Gears The worm shaft and worm wheel are made of the special materials and they are accurately machined. The dual lead worm system is adopted for eliminating the backlash of worm gears. It changes the lead of right and left teeth of worm shaft a little and adjusts the backlash for the worm wheel by shifting this worm shaft in the axis direction.
11-3. Backlash adjusting method of rotating axis worm gears (See Fig.4) This adjustment affect the indexing accuracy and worm wheel durability, thus it is strongly recommended that a skilled technician should do the adjustment. Please consult Kitagawa distributor before the adjustment.
Page 27
Each interval between the hole and the hole on the periphery of bearing NOTICE case is 60°. When rotating the bearing case 60°, the backlash of about 11μm is reduced at arc length on the peripheral position of table. Adjust the backlash slowly and carefully without adjusting the backlash CAUTION at a time.
11-4. Backlash adjusting method of tilting axis worm gears (See Fig.5) This adjustment affect the indexing accuracy and worm wheel durability, thus it is strongly recommended that a skilled technician should do the adjustment. Please consult Kitagawa distributor before the adjustment.
12. Backlash Adjustment of Spur Gears 12-1. Backlash adjusting method of rotating axis drive spur gears (See Fig.6) The backlash between Z1 - Z2 spur gears is adjusted by changing a center distance after adjusting the motor position. The adequate backlash of super gear is 0.02mm~0.04mm. If the measured backlash is deviated, it is necessary to adjust the backlash.
12-2. Backlash adjusting method of tilting axis drive spur gears (See Fig.7) The adequate backlash of super gear is 0.02 mm - 0.04 mm. If the measured backlash is deviated, it is necessary to adjust the backlash. 1) Drain lubrication oil from the tilting axis lubrication oil drain port (See the outside view). 2) Slightly loosen four mounting bolts ③...
13. Machine zero point setting For the NC rotary table with the additional axis but without our controller and the dog type zero point return specification, it is necessary to set the machine zero point to the machine as the machining reference point of the rotary table.

The proximity switch is used as the dog detecting sensor. The gap between the dog and the proximity switch is set to about 0.75mm. (Thread pitch for mounting the proximity switch is 1mm.) The proximity switch with a lamp is used. When the dog is detected, since the lamp goes off, use the proximity switch as a target when the dog position is adjusted.
14. Tilting Axis Over Travel Stop Device 14-1. Tilting axis over travel stop device (See Fig.9) 1) Remove the cover on the motor case side. 2) The dog and the limit switch for over travel of the tilting axis stroke limit are contained into the rotating axis motor case.
14-3. Adjusting methods of dog for horizontal over-travel 1) When the customer will change position of dog B ② according to the shape of workpiece and jig, loosen hexagon socket head cap screw which fix the dog B ②. Once remove the dog B ②. (See Fig.9.) 2) Rotate the tilting axis to the tilting angle to be set in the minus direction with the manual pulse generator or the Manual axis feed key, checking that it does not interfere with the jig or workpiece.
