Sankyo Sandex P65 022720-L2R3A5 Parallel Indexing Drive Hitachi 200W 3-Phase

Sankyo Sandex P65 022720-L2R3A5 Parallel Indexing Drive Hitachi 200W 3-Phase

The Sankyo Sandex P65 is a cam-driven parallel indexing drive manufactured by Sankyo Seisakusho Co. of Tokyo, Japan. This type of unit converts continuous rotary input from an electric motor into precise, repeatable intermittent rotary output, making it a core component in automated assembly lines, packaging machinery, dial tables, and other applications requiring accurate step-and-dwell motion. This unit is the P65 frame size with part number 022720-L2R3A5 and is fitted with an integrated Hitachi three-phase induction motor driving the indexer through a toothed belt and pulley system.

Applications

Sankyo Sandex parallel indexing drives are used in industrial automation systems where precise intermittent rotary motion is required. The cam mechanism converts the motor's continuous rotation into accurate, repeatable indexed steps with a controlled dwell period between each move — a motion profile that cannot be matched by simple gearboxes or steppers in high-throughput applications. These drives are found in rotary dial assembly machines, automated inspection stations, packaging and filling equipment, transfer presses, and indexing conveyors across industries including automotive, electronics manufacturing, food processing, and pharmaceutical production. Sankyo Seisakusho has been producing Sandex indexers since the mid-twentieth century and is one of the original developers of the parallel-cam indexing mechanism. The P65 designation refers to the frame/size class, and units like this were commonly integrated into custom machine builds during the 1970s through 2000s in both Japanese and international manufacturing facilities.
