It’s always good to know what tasks our linear axes are required to do and what machine builders intend to do with them. With that knowledge we can optimally support the engineering process, and design, configure, and quickly manufacture the right system using toothed belt, rack and pinion or spindle drives.
The real challenge and structural peculiarities always lie in the detail, especially with machining equipment. Each machining process brings with it very different issues with regard to sealing, protection from production impacts, hygiene, drainage of liquid media, and the required drive properties.
No two linear axes are the same in portal systems for handling and positioning tools and workpieces. Replicating this variety out of one modular system construction kit – that is the strength of Bahr Modultechnik.
