Modular Mounting
Positional Indexer
Used With Single Axis Servo Box
PLATTER SIZE
140 mm
Introducing our VH-140, a modular rotary axis that can upgrade any 4th axis to a 4+1 positional 5th axis. Using RockLock quick-change work holding, you are able add the VH-140 to any existing rotary table in your shop as needed. It can also be mounted directly on the CNC table as a 4th axis. The Single Axis Control Box easily interfaces with any CNC machine control without expensive upgrades and complicated installation. Its portability allows you to use a single unit on different machines without extra cost. Its compact design allows for operation on machines with small work envelopes.
​
The VH-140 can be programmed to index the 140 mm rotary platter in increments as little as .001 degrees. It has accurate positioning within 5 arc-seconds of repeatability and the pneumatic brakes provide up to 225ft./lbs. of holding torque to help absorb heavy cuts.

​
VH-140 4+1 5th Axis Package: This package is everything you need to turn your 4th axis rotary into a 4+1 5-axis workhorse. The RockLock work holding base is included.
​
The single axis controller has many features and has 4 modes of index control. You can choose to have the
CNC feed the controller each B move using standard print macros or using internal programs with M-
functions or manual cycling. Or, it can provide full XYZAB DNC to your CNC giving you the ability to
run very large 5-axis programs even if your machine lacks the needed memory. Additionally, the control
enables your CNC to access your USB storage key to save and load programs easily.
With the VH-140 and single axis controller, integration is easy and cost effective. All that is needed to get up and
running is:
-
Any CNC equipped with:
-
An RS-232 port for data communication. (optional)
-
An M-code with start/finish signal from your CNC machine to trigger motion.
-
-
A standard 120vac grounded outlet.
-
Standard shop air pressure to operate the fully integrated braking system.
