Universal Multi-Axis Rotary Adapters



Two new universal rotary adapters from Jergens are designed to permit ease of use and quick change for multi-axis machining applications.

Jergens Inc. offers its universal Multi-Axis Rotary Adapters for a range of 3-, 4- and 5-axis applications. The two additions are designed with FixturePro QLS mounting system or Jergens Zero Point System (ZPS), which are designed to provide easy implantation on a wide range of standard rotary indexers and tables.

The FixturePro adapter permits the easy mounting of FixturePro system vises, dovetail vises, collet holders and the drop and lock pallet changers for flexible multi-axis workholding options on popular rotary indexers and trunnions. The complete FixturePro system includes additional components such as sub plates, risers and adapters for any 5-axis or multi-axis machine. Additionally, the company reported that FixturePro quick-change capability allows for reduced set-up time and the ability to keep components in their original clamping through multiple operations to ensure tolerance and repeatability.

According to the company, ZPS systems from Jergens provide a single step to fix, position and clamp parts, reducing set-up time by as much as 90%. At the same time, repeatability of 0.0002" can be achieved.
