Rotary table bearing system with vibration damping

Technical objective: At the current level of technological development, rotary tables are predominantly equipped with ready-to-fit rolling bearing arrangements. This type of bearing arrangement ensures very high static rigidty of the subassembly, which is important in achieving precise and dimensionally accurate machining even when applying large machining forces. Since such bearing arrangements are of an extremely rigid construction, however, their characteristics in terms of vibration damping is very limited. The objective of this development project is to identify possibilities for providing rolling bearing-based rotary tables with vibration damping characteristics in addition to their high rigidity.
