Belt-driven solutions allow speeds of up to 5 m/s. Applicable load To handle high loads, Automationware offers the Pro and Plus series with dual-guide linear axes. For unbalanced loads, configurations with orthogonal guides are available to increase torsional stiffness. The Robo-Line series is ideal for load handling. Protection In industrial environments with residues or dust, the protection of linear axes is essential. The HP series offers advanced systems for belt and screw axes, with protective steel tape or the use of the belt as a dirt barrier. The Robo-Line serie guarantees opera in highly contaminated environments. Precision The belt-driven axes allow a positioning repeatability of 0.05mm, the ball screw and rack and pinion axes allow repeatability of 0.01mm. Economic impact Cost-performance ratio is a key parameter in choosing the most suitable technology. 1 Belt-driven axes are an economical solution that simplifies modular design, reducing the time-to-market of the project. 2 Screw axes, with single or dual guide and high precision, entail a higher cost, but offer superior performance. 3 Linear systems are a cost-effective choice, especially for applications over long distances. Automationware not only produces standard linear axes, but develops customised solutions to meet the specific needs of each customer. 4 Rack-and-pinion axes involve a higher cost but ensure higher loadability, acceleration and precision.
