drylin® EGW - Endless Gear linear module

drylin® E News 2022 - an almost endlessly expandable drive - EGW

Are you looking for a linear system for long travel distances? Then discover our Endless Gear linear module with rack and pinion drive. Several carriages can even be controlled in parallel or independently of each other on an infinitely long rail profile that can be plugged together. The rack and pinion segments can also be used to easily extend travel paths downstream - as simple as a toy railway.

With the drylin® EGW modular system, you get everything from a single source, from the linear guide and the carriages to the chains and cables for the power supply - also ready to install on request, including motor and control system.

Detailed views of the linear module

Here you can see a single linear module in detail. Thanks to the modularity of the system, the modular system consists of pieces that are each only two meters long, which significantly simplifies handling and transport.
