The Werner DomiLine slide system from RA Rodriguez was designed to provide high flexibility for x-y-z configurations, but until now the options have not included a rotary element.

With the introduction of a new module however, this has been rectified, greatly extending the application potential of this versatile system.

The new addition is a low cost turntable.

Manufactured from high-grade steel, the basic unit is designed for manual operation and easy adjustment but can also be specified with a digital display.

A further option is the inclusion of a motor and an inductive sensor to provide a zero point for NC positioning.

Two sizes of this new Werner product are available with diameters of 55 and 80mm.

They can act as turntables, rotating mounting blocks or connecting elements between two linear modules.
