Precise & powerful z-axis

The demands on the z-axis in automation are constantly growing. Precision and lightweight construction are key requirements for efficient pick & place applications. The new GRR with rack and pinion drive is geared precisely to this. Transparent, lightweight construction due to plastic and aluminium. Precision through the use of the new drylin® RW360CM linear plain bearings for more system rigidity. Configurable stroke length up to 1,000mm, load capacity up to 100N.
