# Robotic Turntable

> PhotoRobot heavy-duty motorised turntable for machinery, engines and automotive parts, in 40 kg and 200 kg versions.

Also known as: PhotoRobot Turntable. Category: Hardware.

The Robotic Turntable is a PhotoRobot motorised turntable for small but heavy objects such as tools, engines, milling machines and automotive parts. Its opaque plate overhangs the table edge so products can be photographed at a zero-degree camera angle.

## How PhotoRobot uses it

The Robotic Turntable is available with a 40 kg or a 200 kg load capacity. It uses laser locating to place the object at the centre of rotation, has integrated mounts for lighting and cabling through its frame, and can be combined with a [Robotic Arm](https://www.photorobot.com/robots/robotic-arm) for 3D capture or with a [CUBE](https://www.photorobot.com/robots/cube) for synchronised rotation of a partially suspended product.
