Linear Axis- high-speed and fast response

    Linear axis with tooth belt drive
    Linear axis with tooth belt drives can be found in every industry and in a variety of applications. No matter how often and how far you want to move your workpieces, belt-driven linear units are ideal for fast handling and positioning tasks. The linear axis is driven by a steel-reinforced tooth belt moving lightweight or heavy loads from point A to B within the desired cycle time. Characterised by high speeds, they deliver impressive results even over long travel distances. The positioning of the carriage is achieved by means of a roller guide or rail guide, depending on the product series and the application requirements.
    Linear axis with spindle drive
    Linear axis with spindle drives can generate high feed forces and offer extremely precise positioning accuracy and repeatability - making them a popular standard in processing, dosing and positioning applications. Our spindle drives are characterised by excellent accuracy, guaranteed even under harsh operating conditions and with long operating times. The systems are driven either by a trapezoidal threaded spindle or by a ball screw spindle. For positioning the carriage, you can choose between a sliding guide, roller guide or rail guide.
    Linear axis with rack and pinion drive
    Linear axis with rack and pinion drives are ideally suited for applications where extremely heavy loads need to be moved over long distances. Even with heavy loads, they provide the most precise positioning accuracy. Additionally, this design allows for several carriages to be operated independently of each other on the linear unit. Rack and pinion systems are ideal for lifting heavy loads and for use in cartesian systems. The positioning of the carriage is achieved using a roller guide or rail guide, depending on the product series and the application requirements.
