Ball and roller profile are easy to integate

Danaher Motion's 500 series of ball and roller profile rails are designed to be easy to integrate into new and existing applications.

Common features between the two series include increased rail straightness, simpler installation, greater accuracy, quieter movement and easier customisation.

This ensures improved operational efficiency and cost savings when used with many types of equipment, including machine tools, materials handling, precision measuring, industrial robots, food processing and industrial automation.

Available in six carriage designs from

15 to 45mm, the 500 series ball profile carriage and rails are produced from high-quality bearing steel.

Three different accuracy classes allow for easy customisation, while multiple straightening processes, both during and after grinding of the roller paths, ensures improved machine accuracy for all users.

At the same time, the use of a special trapezoidal profile that maximises the carriage cross-section results in what

Danaher Motion claims to be industry-leading rigidity.

500 series ball profile balls only make contact at two points between the rail and carriage, resulting in quiet, smooth operation.

Internal grease pockets extend bearing life, while each carriage end cap comes with four lubrication inlet options for easy optimisation of system performance in the field. www.danaherlinear.com
