Glides instead of rolling

drylin® R linear bearings, drylin® W modular guides, drylin® T profile rail guides, and drylin® N low profile linear guides from igus® are all used in this handling device.

In contrast to recirculating linear ball bearing systems, the drylin® linear guides move on high performance plastic gliding elements made from the igus® plastic iglide® J, which is low wear and low friction.

drylin® linear bearing systems are designed for dry operation, so dirt accumulation is not an issue. In contrast with recirculating ball bearing systems, drylin® guides do not require a minimum stroke or travel length.

This handling device is suitable for workpieces up to maximum 11 lbs and runs in cycles of less than 0.5 seconds.

igus® offers a comprehensive product range that also includes the simplest guide systems for pneumatic cylinders
