This product aims to transform tedious manual operations into efficient, consistent automated workflows, helping users unleash their creativity and focus on the content itself.

Detailed Specifications

• Diameter: 320 mm. This size offers ample display and shooting surface for most common products like footwear, bags, electronics, cosmetics, food, and small industrial parts. Meanwhile, it keeps the overall device compact.
• Height: 60 mm. The low-profile design lowers the center of gravity, enhancing operational stability, especially under load, and allows for easy integration with tabletops of varying heights.
• Load Capacity:
  • Stepping Rotation Mode: Maximum 40 kg. This mode emphasizes precise control of rotation angles, suitable for automated processes requiring still-frame shooting.
  • Continuous Rotation Mode: Maximum 140 kg. This mode focuses on smooth, continuous motion, ideal for video recording or dynamic display.
• Speed Range: 27 to 72 seconds per revolution, featuring continuously variable speed control. Users can freely set the optimal speed based on shooting requirements (video frame rate, lighting) or display rhythm.
• Connection Methods: Supports USB wired connection, Wi-Fi wireless connection, and Bluetooth connection​ for mobile phone shutter control, enabling flexible control for all scenarios.
• Power Supply: Includes a universal power adapter with an input of AC 100-240V (worldwide voltage) and a stable output of DC 15V / 1.2A, ensuring safe and stable operation in different regions.

Multiple Connectivity & Control Options

• 1. USB Connection: Connect to a computer via the included USB cable. After driver installation, the system recognizes it as a virtual COM port. You can control it with the lowest latency and maximum stability. Use the official Windows software “TurntableX” for parameter setting. Studios favor this method for fixed setups and long-duration automated shooting.
• 2. Wi-Fi Connection: The turntable has a built-in Wi-Fi module. Upon startup, it creates its own wireless hotspot (SSID is typically the product model). Users can connect their computer or phone’s Wi-Fi to this hotspot (default password: 88889999) and then use software or an APP to control it wirelessly via its IP address (default: 192.168.181.181:8181). This completely removes cable restraints, greatly facilitating staging and mobile shooting.
• 3. Multiple Control Methods:
  • Infrared Remote Control: Provides the most direct and quick local control, suitable for rapid adjustments and solo operation.
  • Computer Software (TurntableX): Offers a graphical interface for the most precise and comprehensive parameter setting, task programming, and status monitoring.
  • Mobile APP: Supports official demo APPs (e.g., TurntablePlus, TurntableBLE) via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, enabling convenient control on mobile devices for flexible shooting.

Auto-Shutter System

• 1. Supports Camera Auto Shutter: The turntable is equipped with a dedicated shutter signal output port (3.5mm). Users need to connect it using the included shutter extension cable​ and a separate shutter cable​ compatible with their camera brand (e.g., Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm). During the pause in step rotation, the turntable can automatically send focus and shutter signals to control a DSLR/mirrorless camera to take photos, enabling truly unattended 360-degree sequence shooting.
• 2. Supports Bluetooth Phone Auto Shutter: For mobile phone photographers, the turntable has a built-in independent low-power Bluetooth shutter module. By searching for and pairing with a device named “ComXimShutter” in the phone’s Bluetooth settings, the phone’s camera shutter can be triggered wirelessly when the turntable pauses, providing great convenience for scenarios like social media content creation and mobile shooting.

Remote Control Functions in Detail

The infrared remote control is fully-featured and is the core tool for quick, standalone operation:

• Basic Control: Start/Stop, Speed Up/Down, Clockwise/Counterclockwise direction toggle.
• Angle Presets: Features quick-access buttons for 1°, 10°, 45°, 90°, 180°. Pressing one automatically switches to Single-Step mode and sets the corresponding angle.
• Mode Switching: Has five dedicated buttons corresponding to modes like Continuous Rotation, Repeated Step, Pendulum (Swing), Multi-step Within One Circle, etc., allowing one-touch switching.
• System Functions: Lock/Unlock​ (prevents accidental operation), Save​ (saves all current parameters to the turntable’s memory), Manual Focus/Shutter​ (independent triggering).
• Origin Management: Dedicated Set Origin​ and Return to Origin​ buttons, which are key functions for ensuring shooting consistency and repeatability.

Five Intelligent Rotation Modes

• Continuous Rotation Mode: The turntable rotates continuously at a set speed and direction until manually stopped. Suitable for shooting smooth product showcase videos, live stream backgrounds, or any scenario requiring continuous rotation.
• Single-Step Rotation Mode: Each trigger causes the turntable to rotate a preset angle and then stop precisely. Ideal for professional shooting requiring full manual control and frame-by-frame fine composition, or for use as a precise angle positioner.
• Repeated Step Rotation Mode: The core mode​ for automated shooting. The workflow is: “Rotate set angle A -> Pause for set time B -> Rotate angle A again -> Pause B again…”, repeating this cycle. The shutter can be auto-triggered during the pause. By setting angle A and the total number of steps, any segmented panoramic or sequence shooting can be easily completed.
• Pendulum (Swing) Mode: The turntable swings back and forth like a pendulum within a set angular range (e.g., ±30 degrees) centered on its current stop position, with brief pauses at each end. This mode is perfect for dynamically showcasing products or highlighting specific details in live streams, or for adding dynamism to video content.
• Multi-step Within One Circle Mode: Optimized for shooting standard, equally-segmented 360-degree panoramic images. The user only needs to set a number N (e.g., 36). The turntable will automatically divide a full 360-degree circle into N equal parts, pausing and triggering the shutter after each rotation of (360/N) degrees, completing one full circle before automatically stopping. This is the best mode for creating high-quality 3D scanning material or seamlessly stitched panoramas.

Advanced & Extended Functions

• 1. Supports Setting Origin & Returning to Origin: This function allows the user to define the turntable’s current positionas the “zero point” (origin) at any location. Afterwards, regardless of where the turntable moves, it can be commanded to automatically rotate back to this absolute origin. This is crucial for tasks requiring multiple shooting sessions of the same product to ensure an identical starting angle each time, forming the basis of a standardized workflow.
• 2. Supports Secondary Development: The device exposes the underlying CT command protocol. Developers or advanced users can send simple text commands to the turntable via the USB virtual COM port or Wi-Fi TCP Socket. This enables writing custom control software in any language (e.g., Python, C#, JavaScript) or integrating the turntable into larger systems for industrial automation, smart retail, interactive displays, etc., allowing for deep customization and functional expansion of workflows.

• 3. Multiple Application Scenarios:
  • E-commerce & Commercial Photography: Automates the shooting of 360-degree display images, short videos, and detail shots for products like apparel, footwear, electronics, jewelry, and food.
  • 3D Scanning & Modeling: Provides precise, equal-angle rotation for objects, working with 3D scanners to automatically collect high-quality modeling data.
  • Education, Research & Exhibition: Used for automated rotating display of museum exhibits, teaching model demonstrations, and multi-angle observation/recording of experimental samples.
  • Social Media & Content Creation: Helps video bloggers and creators produce dynamic shots for unboxing, review, tutorial, and creative short videos.
