The PLSM series of linear shifts have been designed to address the most demanding of applications where high duty cycles or high speeds are required in addition to market leading reliability. Applications include high speed wire scanners and production automation.
All PLSMs benefit from:
- Ultra-stiff construction for minimal deflection (<1mrad under load)
- High cantilevered load capacity
- Ball screw drive mechanism with recirculating linear slides capable of speeds up to 100mm/s
- Bellows with greater than 50,000 cycles guaranteed with option for 1 million cycles
Each PLSML can be supplied with a digital linear scale, offering visual position indication with 10 micron resolution. See 'linear shift customisation options'.
