KIND Turntable

KIND Turntable provides the basis for turntables and transfer tables, where the attached track is moved via an animation or programmatic adjustment. Unlike KIND Industry, a fixed track does not provide any special meaning or functionality to its attached track - it is used only for positioning purposes.
