A soft stop will automatically slow and or stop the vehicle to avoid a collision and will resume operations when clear. An example is the safety scanner, when a obstacle blocks the path, the vehicle will slow down and come to a complete stop.

A hard stop is when select safety features are triggered, such as an e-stop, causing the vehicle to stop immediately. This may require manually re-enabling the vehicle before resuming operations.

Safety scanners are preventive safety feature that slows and stops the vehicle from hitting a worker or other obstacles. When used in a AGV application, OSHA requires safety scanners for collision avoidance.

Safety bumper is a reactive safety feature that stops the vehicle when pressure from hitting someone or something. Safety scanners are preferred, stopping a large amount of weight might take a few inches to fully stop and could jerk the weight forward.

Air Caster technology floats the load on a cushion of air, significantly reducing friction and allowing heavy loads to be rotated with minimal force. Because the Air Caster does most of the work, our tables require few moving parts and experience minimal wear and tear.

When maintenance is needed, our turntables feature slide-out trays for easy access to components. Regular maintenance, as outlined in the manual, and using the proper air settings with a clean and dry air supply, will prolong the lifespan.

We designed our Air Caster Turntables to make it simple and quick to replace all internal components; such as the drive, shock stops, the shot pin, and the air casters themselves.

Air Caster Turntables float the load on a thin film of air, allowing for nearly friction free rotation. Mechanical Turntables can be used in environments without an air supply as required by our Air Caster Turntables. They’re also great for outdoor areas or situations where the ability to run for an extended amount of time is necessary.

In certain manufacturing environments, small particles such as glass or dust can cause downtime when using Mechanical Turntables. Air Casters offer a barrier of protection from small particles, resulting in higher efficiency over time. Give us a call at 800-888-0018 to speak with us about which type of turntable would best suit your needs.

The main difference is cycle time. The Round Air Caster Turntable can have a cycle time as low as 10 seconds, while the High-Speed Air Caster Turntable can have a cycle time as low as 6 seconds. In addition to cycle time, the capacities and height of the turntable also differ to accommodate faster cycle time for the high-speed turntable.

We designed our High Speed Air Caster Turntables to make it simple and quick to replace all internal components stored in the center housing; such as the drive, the shot pin.

With a total capacity of 10,000 lbs., each side of the turntable can hold up to 5,000 lbs. Higher capacity variants are available upon request and can be designed by our Engineers.

Align Production Systems uses quality materials and works with you to develop turntables that fit your exact needs. Whether it’s shape, size, or cycle speed – we’ve got you covered.

Flush Floor Turntables allow for products to flow quickly and efficiently throughout the manufacturing line, all while being utilized directly in the floor – allowing for operators and fork trucks to drive on the turntable.

Yes! Our engineers will work with you to design your turntables to meet your specific needs, including the ability to drive fork trucks over the turntables as well as other equipment.

Our mechanical turntables are designed to break down into 5 main parts for easy transportation and setup.

We offer a wide array of standard capacities, but we offer custom engineering and designing to ensure that we can meet your needs. Contact us to speak with someone about a customized solution.

The maintenance for mechanical turntables includes:

• Monthly inspection for structural cracks, loose bolts, and concrete legs for tightness.
• Inspection of wires for looseness.
• Checking the oil level in the gear motor.
• Annual greasing of the slew bearing.

Tabletop hatches provide access to internal components, simplifying maintenance without the need for full disassembly
