Self Aligning Rotators


What is Self-Aligning Rotators ?

“Self-Aligning Rotators” are an advanced version of conventional Rotators with enhanced Self Aligning / Adjustment Features. With this additional feature the need for relocation of Roller Pitch distance by bolt-on and manual adjustments can be totally eliminated.

Primo’s “Self Aligning Rotators” are perfect selection of Rotator for the manipulation of thin sheet wall thickness workpieces where the tendency of rigidness is lesser, heavy, and difficult objects with ovality and shape related deformities in the job to be rotated. Hence the requirement for a self adjustment or aligning rollers are mandatory to ensure proper guidance and drive to avoid any slippage during component rotation.

What is the need for Self Aligning Rotators ?

“Self-Aligning Rotator” are also required for applications where the diameter of the job to be manipulated are of different sizes and varies time to time. Hence with this Rotators huge amount of time can be saved as the diameter is automatically adapted to suit proper effective Job manipulation. Also these Rotators find its prominent need in applications where there are tendency of variation in diameter due to material property such as thickness, Geometry and length of the job which needs certain level automation self centering mechanism.

Where are Self-Aligning Rotators Used ?

Self Aligning Rotators are most suitable for 'thin walled / Lesser thickness' shells of large diameters. Rotators equipped with Self-Aligning features are the most preferred and accepted design for various fabrication shop applications.

Primo’s range of Self Aligning Rotators enable equal loading, constant rotation speed and dynamic/automatic roller adjustments to accommodate a wide range of job diameters.

Most of our customers are using our machines for continuous non-stop production, which speaks volumes about our machines, their Quality, Longevity, Capability, Rigidity  and Reliability.

Industrial Application Usage of Self Aligning Rotators

Self Aligned Welding Rotators finds its place in various industrial applications such as:
