Zero-backlash Technology Delivers Unsurpassed MotionThe RollerDrive CNC is a rotary table designed to meet the requirements of machine tool manufacturers for greater speed and accuracy. The RollerDrive—Sankyo's zero-backlash reducer—delivers accurate output motion that stands up to external disturbances, unlike gearmotors or torque motors. It offers excellent rotary positioning accuracy of 10 seconds or less, and can hold up to heavy cutting forces on hard steel.The heavy-duty RollerDrive CNC has no internal part wear and no loss of accuracy over long-term use, thus eliminating the need for regular calibration or adjustments.
Theory of Operation of the RollerDriveThe RollerDrive uses the roller gear mechanism, one of the finest motion control mechanisms available. The unit is constructed from an input shaft (the roller gear cam) and a turret (output shaft) fitted with roller followers. The roller followers are preloaded against a screw-like input shaft to completely eliminate backlash. Our proprietary adjustment mechanism provides optimum preload.The roller followers planted in the turret use internal roller bearings to transfer torque while rotating. This ensures zero backlash, outstanding precision, and excellent efficiency without causing wear, while providing long-term consistent accuracy.
Exclusive zero-backlash construction
Features
No backlash (play).
High accuracy and good efficiency.
Preloadable for high rigidity.
Clampless machining reduces positioning time.
No deterioration of accuracy over time, initial accuracy is maintained for an extended period.

Table clamping
Application Serves for holding the table at the stop position during machining.
Recommended application After checking the in-position signal of the drive motor, output the clamp command for
the table clamp and check pressure with the pressure sensor. After a specific interval,
establish the clamp complete (positioning complete) state.
Using a machine tool
servo motor
In principle, servo should be ON, but it is recommended to make provision for servo to be
switched OFF if the table clamp was activated while unbalanced torque is generated and
the motor current exceeds 70% of the rated value. (The servo motor should be designed for
absolute movement and the operation commands must also be issued as absolute values.)
Using a general type
servo motor
The following two types of servo motor control are recommended.
(1) If servo ON is to be maintained, change proportional integral control to proportional
control. This will prevent overload problems.
(2) If servo is to be set to OFF, the servo motor's coordinates would be lost if the servo
motor is designed for relative movement. To prevent this, an absolute movement type
servo motor must be used, and commands must be issued as absolute values.
Points to note The system is designed for the following operation sequence:
Air/Hydraulic pressure ON Clamp, Air/Hydraulic pressure OFF Unclamp. Clamping
can therefore not be performed when power or the air pressure source will go OFF.
Motor braking
Application Serves for holding the table at the stop position during power off or servo off.
Recommended application Use a servo amplifier or a servo ON/OFF signal from higher-level equipment to turn the motor
brake on or off. Braking operation is taken to be completed after a specific interval has elapsed.
Using a machine tool
servo motor
The ON timing should be as follows. First use the servo ON signal to enable servo, verify
that servo is ON, then release the brake. After a specific interval for brake release has
elapsed, the operation is taken to be completed. The OFF timing should be as follows.
Use the servo OFF signal to set the brake to ON, and take servo OFF to be completed
after a specific interval has elapsed.
Using a general type
servo motor
Points to note Due to the characteristics of the motor brake function, it cannot be used for holding the
table in the stop position during machining or for table control.
Otherwise machining accuracy may be affected.
CNC rotary tableControl methods for air / hydraulic table clamping
Introduction
This section provides information as well as precautions about generally recommended control methods that
can be used with Sankyo CNC rotary tables that support air or hydraulic table clamping or motor braking.
Because the RollerDrive type CNC rotary tables do not have any structural backlash, clamping is not
necessary within certain conditions. This approach eliminates the time required for clamping and unclamping.
It allows positioning at maximum speed, while also consuming no energy for a air or hydraulic system.
However, if a very high holding torque to maintain the table at the stop position is required, table clamping can be
selected as an optional specification.
* In actual use, the characteristics of the equipment installed by the customer and the functions that are targeted are also relevant.
Please use the information provided here as a reference in setting up the appropriate control sequence for the specific application.

For a general reducer, the hysteresis graph can be obtained by applying torque to the output shaft, and plotting the
generated torsion angle. Backlash, lost motion and hysteresis loss can each be defined from the hysteresis graph,
as indicated above. Lost motion and hysteresis loss depend on the material characteristics, and occur in all types of
structures. Backlash on the other hand occurs only when there are gaps or looseness in the structure. Backlash has
a major effect on accuracy, servo gain and similar factors, and must be minimized. With the using
Sankyo's exclusive preload construction, backlash is completely eliminated and lost motion and hysteresis loss are
controlled to extremely small values, based on the results of research on optimizing materials and structures.

Efficiency
This indicates the percent of input power which is
transmitted to the output. The motion
mechanism has high efficiency because it employs rolling
contact. Efficiency varies depending on conditions such
as load torque, rotation speed and temperature.

Precautions
Precautions
Air supply
Sankyo's CNC rotary tables come standard equipped
with an air purge outlet. (Use it to blow out condensation
and coolant to prolong the life of electrical parts and
prevent rust in the motor housing.) Supply clean air for
the air purge by referring to the drawing shown.
(Do NOT block the exhaust outlet.)
Lubrication
Sankyo's CNC rotary tables use high-performance lubrication oil. Although the lubricant is chemically and thermally
stable, it should be changed every 3,000 hours of operation in order to ensure longer product life. Even if operated less
than 3,000 hours, the oil should be changed once per year. The condition of the oil can be checked with the oil level
gauge while the unit is in the stop condition. Check the oil level and color. If the level is low or the color has changed,
change the oil regardless of the number of operation hours. Some air bubbles may form in the oil during operation. This
is normal and does not affect quality.
* Be sure to use only the lubricant specified below. Otherwise service life may be reduced and parts may deteriorate.
Specified lubricant: Mobil SHC629 (VG150)
Use in grinding machines
When used in grinding machines, the seal device on the outer periphery of the table may become damaged. The
warranty does not cover such damage.
Maximum rotation speed
The maximum rotation speed for the table given in the specifications refers to the indexing speed. Consult with Sankyo
if the table is to be rotated continuously. Otherwise, the table will heat up and lose accuracy, causing overload alarms
with the servo motor.
