A turret tool post includes a turret turnably supported by a post body, turret turning part having a turret turning shaft and the like to turn the turret, a tool attachment part turnably holding a rotatable tool and attached to the turret, and tool-attachment-part turning part turning the tool attachment part to turn the rotatable tool. The tool-attachment-part turning part and the turret turning part are provided independently and arranged to face each other. The tool-attachment-part turning part includes a tool turning motor installed inside the turret and an attachment-part transmission shaft connected to the tool turning motor.

A rotary table according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes a piston 70 having a first tapered portion 72, and a clamp 80 having a second tapered portion 82. When the first tapered portion 72 comes into close contact with the second tapered portion 82 by a movement of the piston 70, a pallet base 30 is fixed to a table base 10, and thus the pallet base 30 is rotated, thereby maintaining a preset posture.

An indexing tool for positioning a workpiece, the tool comprising a block having sides, the sides defining a regular polygon. The block has a central opening, and a threaded hole extending at a right angle to the central opening and into and through one of the sides. The block also has a V notch in the block wall opposite the threaded hole, the threaded hole being adapted to have received therein a like threaded set screw.

A barrel cam device includes a barrel cam, an output table that includes a plurality of cam followers that engage with the barrel cam, and that rotates by rotation of the barrel cam, and a clamp device that clamps the output table when the output table is stopping.

An indexing device includes a drive transmission mechanism, a fixing mechanism. The drive transmission mechanism includes an intermediate gear which includes an intermediate shaft being inserted at an end portion into an accommodation hole formed in a frame, and the intermediate shaft includes an accommodating concave portion and a plurality of through-holes. The fixing mechanism includes a cylindrical pressing member, steel balls and a screw member. There is a gap between the pressing member and a bottom surface of the pressing member in a state in which the pressing member is accommodated in the accommodating concave portion and the steel ball accommodated in each through-hole is in contact with a tapered surface and an inner peripheral surface of the accommodation hole.

The present disclosure discloses a table for an optical alignment device, an optical alignment device, and an optical alignment method for a substrate. The table for an optical alignment device includes: a base including a rotation shaft; a support component connected with the rotation shaft; an installation component connected with the rotation shaft; a plurality of sliding guiding mechanisms connected with the installation component; and a plurality of groups of light shielding mechanisms; wherein each sliding guiding mechanism is slidably installed with a group of light shielding mechanisms, each light shielding mechanism in each group of light shielding mechanisms includes a light shielding plate which can slide to above a selected area of the support component.

A multiple stage processing device having a plurality of radial stages, each individual radial stage is positioned between adjacent dividing walls and indexable though a plurality of processing stations. A plurality of fixture mount assemblies are positioned on an actuation surface of the rotatable indexing assembly, each individual fixture mount assembly is associated with and mechanically coupled to an individual radial stage. One or more slotted drive hubs communicatively coupled to independently operable drive motors are positioned adjacent to the actuation surface of the rotatable indexing assembly and are engageable with the plurality of fixture mount assemblies. When an individual fixture mount assembly is engaged with an individual slotted drive hub, an individual independently operable drive motor can independently control the individual fixture mount assembly such that the individual radial stage mechanically coupled to the individual fixture mount assembly is moveably coupled to the independently operable drive motor.

A machine tool for implementing machining with rotation, the machine tool includes a first rotor, an enclosure, a first rail, a second rail, and a coupler. The first rotor rotates about a rotational axis. The first rotor is surrounded with the enclosure. The first rail is disposed on the first rotor. The second rail is disposed on the enclosure so as to be brought into alignment with the first rail at a rotational position. The coupler moves along the first rail and the second rail. The coupler is to engage with the first rail and the second rail in a first state and to engage with the second rail without engaging with the first rail in a second state.
