Combining sturdy construction, protective features, and high-performance characteristics for load,
moment control, speed and acceleration, the Plus System family of belt-driven linear actuators
features an anodized aluminum structure and steel reinforced driving belt, Rollon says. All series are
available with stainless steel elements for applications in harsh environments, such as those subject to
frequent washes. A dedicated set of accessories simplifies assembly when building high-performance
multi-axis systems. In addition, the Plus System lineup offers: Reliability in dirty environments;
high load capacities and stiffness through a combination of recirculating ball guides, aluminum
profile, and extrusion to complex geometries; high repeatability accuracy of ±0.05 millimeters;
high productivity with speeds up to 5 meters/second and acceleration up to 50 meters/second; low
maintenance thanks to a built-in reservoir that continuously self-lubricates the ball raceway; and
versatility via a newly engineered drive head that allows gearbox assembly on either side of the unit.
