drylin® T - Linear guide systems

● drylin® T linear guide systems were specially developed for applications in automation and handling systems. The design objective was a rugged linear guide for application in the most diverse - and also extreme - environments. They have the same dimensions as most recirculating ball bearing guides.

Technical data

Profile rail and base body of the carriage made of aluminum. The rail is hard-anodized, the aluminum base body of the carriage is clear anodized.
Six gliding elements made of iglidur® J serve as guide bearings, which are positioned opposite to each other in pairs and make up 3 guide bearings.
Alternatively, bearing clearance is continuously adjustable
All steel parts are stainless steel
The lid is made of solid plastic or stainless steel

Specification

DryLin® T - Options

The drylin® T linear guide systems can be supplied with manual continuous clearance adjustment,
as automatic, heavy-duty or low-profile versions.

drylin® T - Adjustable clearance

The drylin® T standard version is supplied preset
and can be put into operation at once. The user
can also manually adjust or fine-tune the clearance
of the linear guide. The individual adjustment for
your application, as well as the potential to respond
to uneven screw surfaces through specific
clearance allowance.

drylin® T - Adjustable clearance

drylin® T - Automatic

drylin® T carriages of the automatic version have
a mechanism that automatically adjusts the
bearing clearance after removal of the preload
key. In case a bearing clearance of more than
0.13 mm has to be adjusted during operation, the
bearing clearance automatically resets itself when
the carriage is completely unloaded.

drylin® TW-HKA manual clamp

The manual clamp has been developed for simple
tasks. The creep behavior of the clamped plastic
causes a slackening in clamping force over time
(up to 70%). Therefore safety-related parts should
not be clamped. Please approach our applications
consultant if you require other options for the
clamping.

drylin® T - Heavy Duty

This series is used for the most extreme conditions
such as dirt, adhesive residues, chips, mud, etc.
The plastic gliding elements made of iglidur® J are
fixed in the lid and are therefore non-detachable.
This system is compatible with many standard
commercial recirculating ball bearing systems and
is available in the following sizes: TW-01-20,
TW-01-25 and TW-01-30.

drylin® T Heavy Duty

drylin® T - Low-profile guide

The clearance is not adjustable for the drylin® T
low profile guide rails. The gliding elements are
mounted with positive fit in the chromated zinc
carriage. This simple and effective design
enables guides that are rugged and low-priced
at the same time.

drylin® T - Compact linear guide

This compact linear guide is suitable for rugged
use (without clearance adjustment). This system
has a slim design and the same dimensions as
conventional recirculating ball bearing systems.
The plastic gliding elements made of iglidur® J
are fixed in the lid and are therefore
undetachable. Suitable for drylin® T guide rail
of installation size 20.
