drylin® linear axes with lead screw drive are designed for positioning tasks of all kinds. The linear adjustment takes place via trapezoidal lead screws of different sizes or via high helix lead screws, which can be set in motion either manually or electrically. The max. travel speed is up to 1.6m/min depending on thread and load. The length of the stroke is freely selectable for any drylin® linear drive system. A stroke of max. 1,500mm is possible for a plain-bearing mounted lead screw, and a stroke length of 1,000mm for a ball-bearing mounted lead screw.
Would you like more information about igus® linear axes with lead screw drives or do you need an individual consultation? Our experts will be happy to get in touch with you.
In our instructions you will find out which alignment of the electrical connections for e.g. motor, encoder or brake connection is best suited for the lead screw axis.
We define the alignment in degrees (looking at the motor from behind).
This device was built to test welds thoroughly. Bending specimens with a force of 5,000N are possible with this machine. In addition to the standard drylin lead screw unit range, which implements the format adjustment of the bending die, linear guides of the drylin W series are also used. With them, the specified support distances are adjustable.
Jungheinrich AG, a manufacturer of industrial vehicles, developed a low-platform truck for a large-scale Scandinavian dairy, which collects trolleys that can be inserted into each other. The aim is to bring the trolleys to a washing facility. Instead of two usual forks for receiving pallets, just one fork is used here. It is controlled by a specially developed multifunction controller.
Fricke Abfülltechnik GmbH & Co. KG came across igus while searching for positioning options of the filling head for its filling plant. A ready-to-install linear module of the SHT series reliably performs this task. This impresses with its lubrication-free, compact design and is more cost-effective than alternative systems. The filling head can be operated by a hand wheel with little effort.
Bernhardt Maschinenbau oHG focuses on the design of folding and gluing machines. drylin components were perfect due to a low coefficient of friction and wear, maintenance-free feature and long service life. In the filling level device, a lead screw linear system of the SLW series is used, which contributes to weight savings.
While adjusting the format of bag sizes in forming, filling and sealing machines, it requires a system that does not use any lubricant due to the risk of contamination and operates completely maintenance-free over the entire machine running time. In addition to other plain bearing solutions from igus, a drylin SET easytube linear tube system is used.
