When Global Laser was asked to
provide a mount for its laser
alignment system on a sawmill,
limited working height meant that the
standard static mount would not cast
a long enough beam length. The
solution uses a DryLin rail guidance
system from
igus.
The laser alignment guide rail design uses DryLin linear bearings, guides, slides and slide tables.
Unlike older bearing technology, DryLin systems are engineered to run dry, which means they self-lubricate and are extremely dirt-repellent and rugged.
