If you've been using fixtures to grip parts on your rotary device, you already know how much operator intervention is required for setting up, clamping and locating the part, and changing from one job to another. And let's not forget about the design time and machining involved to produce the fixture itself. All of this accumulated time lengthens the production time and increases the cost of the part. Are there any other alternatives? Yes, collet-ready spindle rotary tables and indexers, manufactured by Hardinge accept a wide variety of standard tooling to grip parts of various shapes and sizes so that you can output more parts per hour at a lower cost per part.
