Linear Systems from Schaeffler
To ensure a successful automation solution, it is necessary to precisely analyze in advance what the robot should do and which components are needed for this purpose. To realize this requires extensive know-how and the corresponding product portfolio. Rigid linear systems are suitable for gantry robots, such as linear recirculating ball bearing and guideway assemblies of the KUVE and KUSE series and roller monorail guidance systems of our RUE series. These make it possible to perform very exact and fast movements even under high loads.
Load-appropriate sealing solutions protect the carriages from aggressive cleaning agents and ensure that the movements stay precise and low-friction.
