Linear Technology

• High dynamic Guideway system
monoRoll
The new, patent pending monoRoll guideway system is built on the
principal of two prismatic V-guide rollers mounted in a compact roller
support that glides along a monorail. These V-guide rollers have integrated
pre-loaded double-row angular contact ball bearings which are characterized
by high load ratings and extreme stiffness. One of the two V-guide rollers
is firmly mounted in the roller support (for the forces in the direction of
the main load), the other, through an eccentric bolt can be set free of play
and pre-tensioned on the monorail. Optionally, wiper units and/or
lubrication wiper units can be mounted on the roller support.
• Guideway System for Medium Duty Applications
The guideway system for medium duty applications is based on
standardized guideway rollers and vee bars. The system is especially
suitable for applications requiring high velocities, low friction, exact
positioning and quiet operation.
• Guideway System for Heavy Duty Applications
The guideway system for heavy duty applications is based on standardized
roller supports with three integrated roller bearings, guideways with and
without racks, drive units and tubular steel profiles with guideways. the
system is especially suited for high axial and radial loads, high moment
ratings, high rigidity and quiet operation.

roboFlex
The overhead robot roboFlex manufactured by GÜDEL is an
innovative robot concept. It consists of a 5-axis robot arm which is fitted
in a suspended position on a linear travelling axis. Thanks to the overhead
robot roboFlex it is nowadays possible to position workpiece grippers and
operating heads in any axes direction and angle required. The small mass
guarantees very high dynamics and maximum rigidity and accuracy.
The modern robot control systems allow optimum movements to be carried out.
With simplified on-screen operator guidance the part-process is quickly
achieved.

roboLoop
The roboLoop system was launched as a world’s first at
the 1998 Hannover Fair. Developed and patented in-house by GÜDEL. It was,
and still is the only curved-track gantry and transfer system on the market.
The roboLoop concept enables one or more robo-carriers to track curves and
to circulate in a closed system, thereby creating new possibilities for
factory automation.

Aerospace Industries
GÜDEL provides the biggest range of Cartesian equipment
on the market for the Aerospace Industry.
Key features are the use of standard "catalogue" products with modularity,
flexibility, maturity path and reliability with minimum risk.
As with all applications, sometimes the particular technology cannot be
looked at singularly as other external influences such as Jigs/Fixtures and
End Effectors for instance, have an effect on deciding the right solution.
No matter what type of process is required, the orientation of the work
envelope is crucial and one of the key driving factors for selection of any
deployment equipment. Building limitations (ceiling height, building
columns, cranes, etc.) are to consider as well and might not allow one or
the other concept to be used.
