Horizontal Motor Mount Type

Cable Direction

In addition to the conventional type in which the rotary table shaft and the motor shaft were arranged in parallel (motor vertical mounting), the product lineup also includes types in which the rotary table shaft and the motor shaft are perpendicular (motor horizontal mounting).

Select the type that best suits the installation space for the equipment.

(Example: For standard type with frame size of 85 mm)

mounting options

Advantages of Motor Horizontal Mounting

  • Machining of motor clearance hole is not necessary, thereby simplifying the installation plate.
  • Improved installability due to elimination of installation pedestal.
  • Cabling and piping can be routed between legs underneath the table.

horizontal motor mounting

Contributes to Easier Equipment Design

The gear-reduction mechanism employs precision gears along with a proprietary adjustment mechanism that eliminates backlash. The repetitive positioning accuracy from a single direction is ±15 sec., while lost motion in a positioning operation from two directions is 2 arc minutes. These characteristics make the DGII series the ideal choice for applications in which accurate positioning is a must.

Rotary Actuator Features

*DGM60 features Deep-Groove Ball Bearings

High Power and Rigidity

The hollow output table is integrated with a high rigidity crossroller bearing*. The structure improves permissible thrust load and moment load while maintaining high torque.

The output table uses deep-groove ball bearings (two pieces) for the 2.36 in. (60 mm) frame size type, and a cross-roller bearing for the 3.35 in. (85 mm), 5.12 in. (130 mm) and 7.87 in. (200 mm) frame size types. As the frame size increases, the permissible moment load also increases but the displacement caused by the moment load decreases.

Direct Coupling for Higher Reliability

Equipment tables and arms can be installed directly on the output table. This saves you the hassle and cost of designing an installation mechanism, arranging necessary parts, adjusting the belt tension, etc. when mechanical parts such as belt and pulley are used for installation.

Direct Coupling


Because of Absolute System, Easy Home Setting and Return-to-Home is Possible

No Return-to-Home Sensor Required

Because it is an absolute system, no home sensor is necessary.

Reduced Costs

Sensor and wiring costs can be reduced, leading to overall lower system costs.

Not Affected by Sensor Malfunctions

There is no concern about sensor malfunction, sensor failure, or sensor wire disconnection.

Improved Return-to-Home Accuracy

Return-to-home is carried out without any concern over variation in home sensor detection, which can improve home accuracy.

*If no limit sensor is installed, driver software limits are used to prevent operation when a limit is exceeded.

Easy Home Setting

By pressing the switch on the driver surface, home position can be set simply, and the home position can be saved with the sensor. Furthermore, it is possible to set the home position using the data setting software (MEXE02) or the external input signal.

HOME Switch


High-Speed Return-to-Home

Since return-to-home is possible without the use of a home sensor, return-to-home is carried out at high speed without any concern over sensor sensitivity, which can shorten the machine cycle.

Easy Return-to-Home

Return-to-Home Not Required

The position information s retained even if the power shuts off during positioning. Furthermore, if the built-in controller type is being used, positioning is restarted without return-to-home when the power is restored after a power outage or an emergency top on the production line.

Continue after Emergency Stop


The Mechanical Sensor does not Need a Battery

Battery-Free

The sensor is mechanical, thus it doesn't require a battery. Since position information is mechanically managed by the absolute sensor, positioning information can be retained even if there is a power outage or the cable between the motor and driver is disconnected.

Reduced Maintenance

Because there is no battery that needs replacement, maintenance time and costs can be reduced.

Unlimited Driver Installation Possibilities

Because there is no need to secure space for battery replacement, there are no restrictions on the installation location of the driver, improving the flexibility and freedom of the layout design of the control box.

Safe for Long Distance Shipping

Ordinary batteries self-discharge, thus caution is required for long-term transportation, such as overseas shipping. The motor sensor is battery-free, thus there are no restrictions on the retention of positioning information. This also means that there are no concerns about shipping regulations for batteries when exporting.

Position Retention Even if the Cable Between the Motor and Driver is Disconnected

Positioning Information is retained in the motor sensor.


Useful Functions Thanks to the Built-in AZ Series

Convenient Operation & Setting

By using the AZ Series functions, the hollow rotary actuator's output table coordinates are managed and the following operations become possible.

Short-Cut Operation Reduces Takt Time

This is an operation method that drives the equipment in the rotation direction, providing the shortest distance to the target position that has been set. It can reduce the amount of takt time for the equipment.

Short-Cut Operation

Easy Control by Setting No-Entrance Areas

If there are dangerous or damaging items on the equipment, it is possible to set an area into which the output table cannot be moved.

No Entry Area

Reduced Equipment Setup Time

The parameters necessary to operate the hollow rotary actuator are set at the time of shipment, which contributes to reduce equipment setup time.

  • Home Position
  • Resolution Setting (0.01°/step)
  • Output Table Rotation Direction Setting
  • Round Setting ±180°

All of the initial settings can be changed.

Reduced Set Up Time
