Introducing the LittleMachineShop 4 Precision Rotary Table – the compact piece of machine-shop hardware that lets you rotate your workpiece with actual precision instead of grabbing it with your hand and saying. ? 4 PRECISION ROTARY TABLE?? This is a horizontal / vertical rotary table designed for milling-machine work where you need controlled rotation, indexing, angle setting, circular cutting, bolt patterns and all the other fun stuff that happens when straight lines become boring. ? Horizontal AND vertical operation. ? 72:1 worm gear ratio. ? 360° graduated scale. ? 2 Morse Taper center hole. ? Lock-down clamps included. ?? 3 chuck adapter included. ? Precision-machined cast iron construction. Your milling machine just learned how to turn. ? WHAT THE HELL DO YOU DO WITH IT? Need to mill a circular feature? No need to manually move the table in a suspicious approximation of a circle. Just rotate the work. ? Round things happen. Need six holes equally spaced? Instead of measuring, marking, drilling, measuring again, swearing, and discovering that hole #6 is approximately in the next county.. Use a rotary table. Need a precise angle? No protractor from your kid’s school supplies required. With the right dividing plate, this thing becomes an extremely useful indexing setup. All the stuff that makes your neighbors wonder why there is a machine shop in your garage. ? HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL? This table can be used. ? Circular milling?? Bolt circles? Indexing??? General milling operations. Flip it upright and you’ve got a completely different setup. ? Workpiece centerline is elevated above the mill table. Perfect for a variety of rotary machining and indexing operations. Because apparently one orientation wasn’t enough. ? 72:1 WORM GEAR RATIO. The rotary table uses a 72:1 worm ratio. ? 72 turns of the crank = 1 complete revolution of the table. Also because if it were 1:1, you’d probably throw the crank across the shop trying to make a 2° adjustment. The high reduction ratio gives you controlled movement and makes fine angular positioning much easier. ? Clamping surface flatness: 0.0008. ? Parallelism of clamping surface to base: 0.0008. ? Squareness of clamping surface to angle face: 0.0012. ? Squareness of clamping surface to center slot: 0.0012. ? Center bore concentricity: 0.0008. So when someone says. It’s just a little round table. You can politely explain that 0.0008″ is considerably less than “a little. Height when horizontal: 2.87. Centerline above table when vertical: 2.68. Body: approximately 5 from crank handle to back. Mounting slots: approximately 5.5 slot-to-slot. Compact enough for a benchtop machine. Serious enough to actually do useful work. ?? 3 CHUCK ADAPTER INCLUDED. And because apparently holding the work directly wasn’t complicated enough.. This rotary table includes an adapter for mounting a 3 lathe chuck. Which means you can turn your rotary table into a very convenient workholding setup. Nobody said anything about stopping at one. ?? General milling operations. ? WARNING: OWNING THIS TOOL MAY CAUSE. ? You to start thinking your mill is too small. ? You to start looking at bigger mills on Craigslist. ? Your significant other to ask. Didn’t you already have one of those? Your only correct answer is. That one is different. ? WHAT YOU GET. LittleMachineShop 4 Precision Rotary Table.
