Flexible linear robots: where can I get one?
Flexible linear robots – sweat the robots, not your staff
Multi-axis gantries are machinery systems that can travel across predefined surfaces or volumes. At igus®, we have gantry applications lifting hundreds of kilos for industrial tasks and others carrying out millimetres of travel for high precision tasks.
Our drylin® gantries are based on proven tribo-technology, meaning that all systems are based on gliding, self-lubricating linear units, allowing for long service life operation without any external lubrication.
Typical applications include pick and place automation, measurement or inspection automation, assembly handling, marking and labelling machinery and handling tasks for low-cost automation applications.
