Finally, the solution is also a pleasure to work with for the machine builder himself. For example, the turntable features a sealed hollow shaft that allows an integrated feed-through for pipes and hoses. Furthermore, it provides a standardised mounting interface and integrated end-position detection. This makes installation during machine assembly easy.
Roshan concludes, "I am very happy with this final result. Through good consultation sessions with Festo and the combination of their expertise and our knowledge of our customers, the machine has become faster but not more complex. A good starting point to see where we can use the SMS even further. Soon, for example, we will apply different Simplified Motion actuators such as the EPCS for linear motion. An ideal concept for a variety of machines."
