All Orbital’s zero-backlash turntables are controlled by robotic-grade Harmonic drive gearboxes, the same used in NASA’s Apollo Lunar and Mars Explorational Rovers. These components were selected by our team so the system will work smoothly at full operating speed year after year.

XL TURNTABLE
The Turntable XL is a high-end system capable of carrying extremely heavy payloads and moving quickly with precision and is ideal for capturing large machinery such as bikes, cars, vans, or whole sets – watch it in action here. With a 3 tonne payload capacity, the turntable can rotate at speed of up to 90°/s as well as having variable speed settings for different capture needs or complex move profiles. It can also carry and be used in conjunction with our 6-degrees-of-freedom 1.5 tonne payload motion base.
The system integrates with MRMC or 3rd party software/controllers with an open API. The centre plate is removable so that power can be supplied to appliances if needed. The Turntable XL comes with removable casters for easy transport.
- 3 tonne payload capacity
- Rotation speed up to 90°/s
- Removable casters
- Weighs 800kg

6m Turntable
For studios or more permanent installations, there is a 6m turntable option, perfect for moving entire sets, larger vehicles and any scenarios that involve a much wider area of movement. It has a payload of 3 tonnes and a peripheral speed of 1.3m/s, (1 revolution in 15 seconds).
Contact us for more information about the 6m turntable option or any other custom size requirements.

Controllers
iPad Controller App
The MRMC Turntable iPad app was created to provide a simple and intuitive interface to control small and medium turntables. It is ideal for eCommerce 360° photo/video capture, and can sequentially go through a given number of angles. For example, it can be programmed to take 60 photos as you rotate the product 360 degrees. With some hardware setup the App can be connected to a camera and trigger the shutter for fully automated capture. The App works over direct Ethernet through an adapter, or over WiFi if MRMC Turntable is connected to the router.
Stepper Hand Controller
Easy to use hand-held unit for direct stepper motor control. It can continuously rotate single-axis products, such as a turntable or a slider.
- Large knob controls the speed and direction as you turn it CW or CCW from its middle stop position
- Small knob adjusts the maximum speed
- Green switch quickly enables/disables the movement
- Works with MRMC 24V or 48V motors directly sends step and direction control signals to the motors
