DualVee
DualVee linear guide wheels consist of both an external and internal 90
degree vee angle. The vee groove guide wheel is made with a double row
angular contact bearing for excellent load capability and long life. Vee
bearing guide wheels are available in 52100 steel or 440C stainless
steel from stock. Other options include seals and shields to meet
specific application needs. Special DualVee guide wheels are available
for cleanroom, debris-laden, low temperature and high temperature
applications.GV3
GV3 provides a wide array of precision linear guide components utilizing
guide wheel androller wheel technology. Slides are available in three
different precision grades, ranging from completely ground surfaces to
as-drawn quality, to fit performance and economic needs. Lubed-for-life
guide wheels come in twin bearings, double row bearings, and compact
slimline bearings. GV3 may be used as a simple guide or as a
self-actuated rack or belt driven system.LoPro
LoPro linear actuators are an actuated linear motion system based upon
proven DualVee guide wheel technology for smooth and quiet motion over
long lengths. Actuation options include AT series belt, ANSI roller
chain, lead screw, and ball screw. LoPro linear actuators are also
available in a non-actuated version. LoPro linear actuators provide a
tough, cost effective, low friction, low profile modular solution, built
to withstand a wide range of operating environments. Complete systems
include your preference of wiper or basic wheel plates, and may be
mounted or un-mounted. Support beams are available in aluminum or steel
to meet application demands and to provide ease of installation. A wide
variety of gantry brackets are available to form complete LoPro gantry
systems.SL2
UtiliTrak
UtiliTrak is an ideal choice for running two systems in parallel, where
one slide uses DualVee guide wheels and the other uses MadeWell® crowned
rollers. Because precise parallelism is difficult to achieve, it is not
uncommon for mounting surfaces to be slightly out of parallel.
UtiliTrak's design compensates for mounting errors, and does not require
absolute parallelism for accurate operation. The DualVee guide wheel
carriage assembly and vee channel serves as the motion side, while the
MadeWell crowned roller and open channel side allows for parallel
misalignment. PDU2
PDU2's patented wheel technology gives this small belt driven system
considerable load capacity for its size. The modular design of the PDU2
allows for quick and easy gantry configuration. Adapter plates can be
ordered for connecting PDU2's together, or MCS aluminum framing brackets
and extrusion may be ordered to create a machine structure. PDU2 features an aluminum beam up to 6 meters in length with T-slots, if desired. Aluminum beams without T-slots are ideal for wash down applications, and they will not trap dirt. Additional options for the PDU2 include motor/gearbox mounts, limit and proximity switches, T-nuts, T-slot covers, gearboxes, motors, and electric brake.
