The Linear Rail System uses a precision leadscrew assembly to provide controlled positioning along the axis of a robust linear slide.
The system consists of a stationary base with a load bearing carriage that travels along a custom-extruded wear resistant aluminum rail. It uses either a size 17 hybrid external linear actuator or, for greater performance, an optional size 17 hybrid double stack external linear actuator integrated into the slide for a complete single axis positioning system. The system can be provided with various leads and shaft end configurations that accommodate virtually any source of rotary power. Integrated “T” slots accommodate full length support and various mounting options. Designed to metric global engineering standards, the rail provides end-to-end axial stability and precise motion system accuracy. Haydon Switch & Instrument Inc.www.hsi-inc.com800.243.2715
