High torque and greater moment load in Nexen’s rotary indexersERT

Nexen Group announces its X-Line of rotary indexers that deliver up to three times more torque and greater moment load capacity in a compact package.

Nexen Group’s new X-Line has a redesigned roller pinion and a larger gear pitch to handle higher torque capacities that deliver accuracy, fast acceleration, high-speed positioning, increased load capacity, and true repeatability. The mounting features and the additional fastening points of the rigid cast housing in the X-Line are designed for a greater moment load capacity than a standard design. Additionally, systems can be designed for either low or zero backlash to meet the project specification.

“We have designed the new X-Line rotary indexers from our customer requests to have a system that delivers higher torque and more load capacity – said Dave Hein, vice president of engineering in Nexen -. Utilizing Nexen’s patented technologies, we were able to create systems that deliver a solution for the most demanding applications that require precise positioning and higher peak torque inputs, allowing for faster indexing times”.

Nexen engineers and manufactures advanced motion control components for a wide variety of industrial applications. Headquartered in the USA and with its European office based in Belgium, Nexen supplies products to customers through a global network of local distributors and representatives.
