Schneeberger’s Monorail Range (linear guidance)

admin

Since 1923 Schneeberger has been innovating in Linear Guidance, Let me introduce you to the MonoRail range

The MonoRail family available in MR version with cylindrical or ( Rollers) bearings, they offer a better hold for moments of force applied to the carriage , as the contact surface is larger, the force is multiplied, a nice option, which can reduce the size required for a given application.

The BM type model, with ball bearing, ideal for replacing products like Bosch or THK, the range also includes a version with Rack. The type MonoRAIL BZ.

Profiles and trolley are available in 4 precision class, From  the most accurate G3 to the  standard version

Lubrication options are also available to ensure long-term lubrication such as a lubrication plate.

Guidance profiles are also available with a built-in measuring system. The profile includes a linear magnetic scale  while the cart incorporates a reading head. Available in incremental version, with pulsed output or SIN , COS and Absolute version. Schneeberger allows you to save time and space and simplify your assembly. 👍

What do you need to know to choose an Actuators or Linear Robots?

admin

What questions to ask when choosing an actuator or linear robots to avoid selection errors

What Precision I’m looking for (Precision and repeatability), this will help us choose which family and type of product we will have to choose the solution in, and the need to have a linear coder and a closed loop on the actual position of the system.

What orientation will the system be installed? Vertical, horizontal, angled, The forces applied to the cart will be different and the gravitational force will have to be taken into account.

What speed  , and acceleration the system have to support ?  The engine capacity, Drive and, support, bearing will have to withstand the forces of acceleration and deceleration of the system and be able to deliver the required performance

What Length ? Including acceleration and deceleration zone to achieve required speed

What’s the Load ?  The weight and its distribution as well as the forces applied with their directions. Any loads deported from the rolling system will result in a moment of force, which the system must be able to withstand without introducing a position error. Any workload performed by the actuator, (cut, push, pull, polish) , Include the weight of the tool, servo motor, gearbox and other axes.

What is the work cycle, and durability required by the application

Other factors to consider, safety, brake for the load, other forces, motor manufacturer and model

What type of environment the product will be subjected to, temperature, debris, chemical, wash down , type of maintenance. Influences the selection of materials and type of bearing and lubrication required.

Hoping that this list of questions helps you better visualize your needs, You can contact Prosynergic to discuss your application it will be our pleasure to help you.
