drylin® SAW linear guides with lead screw drive

Dynamic due to lead screw drive with ball-bearing

The high profile based on the drylin® W series ensures the torsionally rigid basis of the linear modules of the SAW linear units. Due to the high type and the ball-bearing mounted lead screw as standard, the SAW linear guides are perfect for the direct connection of stepper motors or DC motors. With the freedom to easily add proximity switches and matching adapter plates enables the construction of multi-axis systems, and these can be installed with optional profile grooves.

3D printer for concrete l Lubrication-free solution for dusty environment

The use of cement creates a high level of dust load in the 3D concrete printer, which the products have to withstand. Furthermore, the longest possible service life and fast maintenance are required. Our bearing solutions and lubrication-free linear drives ensure a long service life despite dirt and contamination.
