Rotary tables – industrial conveyor turning tables

Rotary tables are the ideal conveyor technology for turning conveyed goods in the tightest of spaces, feeding products in and out at different angles or changing the conveying direction at any angle. They are also used as a connecting link between intersecting conveyor belts. The major advantage of using turning stations is that the orientation of the conveyed goods remains the same regardless of the change in direction. 

With one module, you ensure a constant flow of goods within your system when it comes to turning the transported goods. The rotation station of your conveyor belts in an industrial environment offers a multitude of benefits and functionalities in various applications. Thanks to the modular design, integration into any type of system is possible. The rotating tables from TEGEL-TECHNIK are suitable for various industries and are available in high-quality materials such as steel, stainless steel and aluminium. Regardless of the material and application, our systems are always robust and durable, and built specifically for your project. 

Conveyor turntables ensure that a continuous material flow is maintained. They are always used when the conveying direction of a transported good needs to be changed, but the orientation of the transported good must remain the same. These rotary tables are available in a manual version, where rotation is carried out using muscle power, or as a motorised version. When turning, any angle of rotation can be realised. To enable safe turning, the turning stations are completely enclosed. Alternatively, they can be used in a protective grid cell.

A sub-variant of the turntable is the turnstile. This can be used to turn the conveyed goods within the transport route in order to change the orientation of the conveyed goods. This variant is often used in industry, for example on assembly lines, to enable accessibility on all sides of the conveyed goods. 

At TEGEL-TECHNIK, we design rotary tables for a wide range of applications in different sizes and shapes. They are used for example in conveyor systems to compensate for changing product flows. Rotary tables also enable safe working in hard-to-reach places on the workpiece, thereby increasing the productivity of the conveyor system.

We have realised several conveyor technology projects with rotary tables for our customers. Several rotating stations were installed in an assembly line for white goods in order to rotate the appliances several times. This allows the assembly steps at the front and rear to be carried out easily and efficiently. We have also realised a buffer line with a manual pallet industrial turntable as a workstation. An employee can turn the pallet there and remove the parts easily and safely. Another example is the transport of plastic crates. An automated guided vehicle (AGV) simultaneously delivers two plastic crates, which must then be brought together on a track and rotated, in order to achieve the same orientation.

Each material possesses distinct characteristics, necessitating specific transportation considerations. With more than 40 years of experience in engineering material flow systems, TEGEL-TECHNIK stands as a reliable partner. We expertly handle all load specifications, from the planning and construction of conveyors to on-site assembly. Whether you have particular requirements or seek a proposal, we offer expert and personalized guidance to help choose an effective transportation solution. Dedicated to identifying the optimal material flow system for every automation, TEGEL-TECHNIK guarantees a solution tailored to your unique needs.
