Linear axes

General information about linear axes

Linear axes allow exact and fast positioning in time and space. Different linear axes are used depending on the application. Belt axes are used for high processing speeds and long travel distances, while spindle axes are available for increased accuracy requirements. Linear motor axes are suitable for the highest requirements in terms of dynamics, accuracy and synchronization while requiring minimal maintenance. 

Application fields

  • Assembly and handling technology
  • Manufacturing automation
  • High-performance automation
  • Machine and plant construction
  • Machine tool construction
  • Processing industry
  • Automotive industry

Advantages of linear axes

  • Various designs
  • High dynamics
  • Large payload and action force

Linear motors

General information about linear motors

The basic principle of a linear motor is to generate a translatory (straight-line) motion with defined feed forces. In this case, the movement is brought about directly - i.e. without conversion of a rotational movement of an electric motor by means of gears. Linear motors are mainly used in positioning and handling systems in industry. Due to the typical low-friction design, special variants are available that are particularly suitable for the food or cleanroom industry. 

Application fields

  • Assembly and handling technology
  • Manufacturing automation
  • High-performance automation
  • Machine and plant construction
  • Machine tool construction
  • Processing industry
  • Automotive industry

Advantages of linear motors

  • High accelerations
  • Large speed range
  • High power density
  • Maintenance and backlash-free
  • Quiet running
  • Highest precision
  • Compatibility with other systems
  • Low current consumption
  • Various designs

Electric cylinders

General information about electric cylinders

Electric cylinders close the gap between pneumatic and hydraulic actuators. Electric cylinders are used for precise motion and positioning tasks as well as adjustment and actuation operations. The ball screw drive enables smooth running, has low wear, is low-maintenance and thus has a long service life.

Application fields

  • Assembly and handling technology
  • Manufacturing automation
  • High-performance automation
  • Machine and plant construction
  • Machine tool construction
  • Processing industry
  • Automotive industry

Advantages of electric cylinders

  • High reliability,
  • Simplified controllability
  • High speeds and accelerations
  • High push/pull forces
  • Efficiency up to 90%
  • Large stroke range
  • ATEX design
