Description

The MHDD140 series offers a versatile modular range, facilitating seamless creation of single-axis head and tail stock configurations. Engineered for precision, MHDD140 servo heads deliver robust and accurate rotation with high torque capability and a backlash of less than 3 arc/min. They also feature X & Y axis precision alignment adjustments between head and tail stock units.

The head stock can function either as a stand-alone horizontal axis positioner, and can be supported by a Kyrus tail stock bearing, or twin head stocks can be utilised to provide additional rotational torque for large off-set payloads. Constructed from heavy-duty steel, the MHDD140 family ensures exceptional rigidity, while the beam clamp system allows for easy customisation of the length between face plates.

The tail stock is designed with a hollow bore for cable and service pass-through. Additionally, optional weld earth return brushes can be fitted to the head stock to enable continuous rotation in automated welding applications.

All Kyrus linear tracks and positioners are compatible with any robot brand or model and Kyrus also offers guidance on servo motor selection. For scenarios where a 7th axis motor is not feasible, the Kyrus external drive control unit can interface with your robot to provide precise motion control to the positioner.


Features

  • High torque, high precision planetary gearbox for servo motor drive
  • Heavy duty steel fabrication for exceptional rigidity and robustness
  • Adjustable length between face plates via lower support beam clamp
  • Integrated precision adjustment for axial alignment between head and tail units
  • Self-aligning tail stock bearing to assist with axial alignment between head and tail units
  • Hollow bore tail stock allows pass through of cables and services
  • Datum pin allows easy calibration and ‘zeroing’ of the axis
  • Bespoke colour scheme to suit your requirements

Options

  • Earth return brush for welding applications that require continuous rotation
  • A range of quick drop links to facilitate mounting of tooling plates
  • Counterweight units for torque offset
  • External drive control unit, for motion control when a robot auxilliary axis is not possible
