Linear motion
We offer systems and components for an accurate and reliable linear motion.
NSK linear guides
These guides are designed for a superior-quality linear motion. NSK has developed several linear guide families to meet the specific needs of different industrial sectors. With respect to more specific applications, NSK offers specialty coatings and lubricants, precision levels and bespoke designs. Most NSK linear guides guarantee a maintenance-free functioning thanks to the K1 and K1-L lubrication kits.
NSK ball screws
NSK ball screws have been developed using a state-of-the-art friction control technology. NSK is acknowledged as the largest producer in the world, in terms of volume, thanks to its most advanced manufacturing and quality control techniques. The company offers a full range of ball screws for machine tools, injection molding machines and general machinery, as well as products for specific environments, such as equipment for the manufacturing of semiconductors or LCD monitors.
NADELLA linear systems
NADELLA specializes, as a company, in the design and manufacturing of linear roller guides, split into two main families: one for heavy loads and the other for light loads. Both families are suitable for any application requiring high speeds and low noise and when the operating environment is particularly hostile. The main application fields of Nadella linear guides are: robotics; handling, packing, and packaging systems; machine tools; woodworking machines; assembly machines; measuring machines; electro-medical machines; printing machines.
CTS linear systems and freewheels
CTS is an Italian company specialized in the manufacturing of a wide range of linear products, including: linear guides (simple, with a motorization option, equipped with one or more axes, with modular freestanding profiles, with belts, racks, chain or ball screws) and freewheels, which are unidirectional joints where the driving component pulls the driven component when it rotates in one direction, while detaching automatically from it when it rotates in the opposite direction.
EWELLIX ball bushings, units and shafts
A ball bushing is a linear system used with an LM shaft having a hardened and rectified cylindrical shaft. It can ensure linear movements with minimum frictional resistance, while offering an extremely accurate and agile motion. Part of the SKF group of companies, Ewellix combines a wide range and an incredibly high quality level.
