Flexible heavy duty slide system
July 1st 2008 The HDS2 heavy duty slide system
is described by HepcoMotion as
the iron man of linear motion.
System capacities are to 68kN. It
has been engineered to meet
increased load and life requirements
and addresses new markets in
heavy materials handling that
involve large X-Z gantry systems.
HDS2 has retained the best
features of its forerunner and
incorporated them in a considerably
expanded range. Specific
components have been introduced
to reduce the engineering time
required by the customer to get the
system up and running.
These include larger bearings
with increased load capacity, three
sizes of construction beam, single
edge V slides and flat tracks as well
as a range of drive options. There is
also an option for stainless steel or
corrosion resistant components as
standard, enabling HDS2 to satisfy
most high load application needs.
HDS2 can be supplied in
component form or as a ready
mounted assembly complete with
rack driven carriages. More articles from Hepco Group (UK): |
