In turning centers where space is at a premium, broaching demands a drive that is compact and consistently reliable. Sankyo Automation’s Broach Drive in a Turning Center uses the continuous rotation of the RollerDrive to propel the broaching tool, delivering steady motion in a package designed to fit where others cannot. How It Works At the heart of the setup is the RollerDrive, providing continuous rotation to the broach for smooth, repeatable cutting. A right angle input an

In high-precision manufacturing environments, efficiency often comes down to how seamlessly you can move parts through each process step. At Sankyo Automation, our indexing technology is designed to optimize workflows, increase throughput, and deliver unmatched reliability. A great example of this is our special-order 2.5-stop Indexing Dial , built to meet unique application requirements. Unique 2.5-Stop Design Unlike traditional indexing drives, this model advances the dial

In high-speed stamping and precision manufacturing, coil stock behavior can make or break your throughput. Loose loops flap, scratch, and kink; tight loops starve the feeder. Sankyo Automation’s VLC (Loop Controller) and VSC (Loop Controller + Straightener) Series tame that chaos—delivering smooth, consistent material to your feeder so your press can run the way it should: fast, accurate, and repeatable. Why loop control matters Traditional loop setups leave material “free

If you're machining large or complex parts while holding tight tolerances, you understand how important a reliable high-torque trunnion is. At Sankyo Automation, we built our RollerDrive Trunnions to give machinists a better solution for synchronized tilt and rotation across two axes. The result is smooth motion, fast indexing, and repeatable accuracy that holds up under real production demands. Whether you're cutting aerospace components, automotive castings, or simply tryin

When a project requires rotating a large, multi-sided fixture, the Sankyo Indexing Drive provides controlled, reliable motion through a geared indexing system. Each rotation moves the fixture to a new working surface, allowing multiple operations or product variants to be handled within the same machine. One of the biggest advantages is flexibility. Each side of the fixture can support a different setup, which makes it possible to run multiple product models without constant

As electric vehicle technology accelerates, so does the demand for smarter, faster, and more precise manufacturing solutions. At Sankyo Automation, we’re proud to introduce the Variax OPUS1 Series — the most advanced servo feeder system for motor core production lines used in hybrid, PHEV, and EV vehicle motors. Built for High-Performance, Designed for the Future The OPUS1 Series combines high speed, high precision, and exceptional reliability in one streamlined unit. By int

When it comes to high-precision 5-axis machining, accuracy, repeatability, and efficiency are paramount. Traditional rotary tables rely on worm gears or direct-drive motors, but these designs often introduce backlash, wear over time, or require frequent maintenance. Sankyo Automation’s RollerDrive Trunnion Tables offer a cutting-edge alternative—one that delivers unmatched precision, rigidity, and longevity while maximizing machining efficiency. What Sets the RollerDrive Tru

Introduction In modern factory automation, precision and efficiency are paramount. Whether for robotic welding, indexing applications, or high-load machining, motion control solutions must provide repeatability, rigidity, and zero-backlash performance. Sankyo Automation has engineered some of the most reliable and accurate zero-backlash positioners on the market with its RGV, RGR, RU, and RA Series positioners. This blog will break down the specifications, features, and ben
