Modular motion axes and systems

    Ball-screw axes with recirculating ball-bearing guide EGSK and EGSP focus on precision, repetition accuracy, compact dimensions, and rigidity.

    Ball-screw axes with recirculating ball-bearing guide EGSK and EGSP focus on precision, repetition accuracy, compact dimensions, and rigidity. The steel housing of these axes form the guide rail, which prevents accumulative tolerances through production. Four rows of balls give the guide carriage the same basic load ratings in both radial coordinate directions.

    The mechatronic multiaxis systems handle gripping, joining, rotating, and positioning. Designers can use the systems with standardized handling systems and combine them individually. The ready-to-install systems reduce the number of interfaces.
