Rotary table machines are mostly used, if the required cycle time cannot be achieved in the selected process (e. g. welding or riveting). The two-cycle rotary table machine separates the loading and unloading process from the operating process, as they are parallel. Three- or four-cycle rotary table machines are often used, if the required production steps in one station, for example due to lack of space, cannot be realized or if they have to be carried out one after the other.
Two examples for such a solution:
four-cycle rotary table machine for ultrasonic welding and riveting of door panels
three-cycle rotary table machine for embedding of filter elements into a plastic housing by means of short-wave infra-red radiation
