This torque transfer also ensures a permanent backlash- free and weartree connection compared with conventional feather key couplings, ‘even in the highest dynamic range. The drive and deflection pulley are integrated into the aluminium section, ‘thus resulting in an optimum relationship between travel distance and total length of the linear axis. ‘Cay * Scraper brushes The scraper brushes reliably remove A cover strip of tried and tested design ‘major contamination from the cover protects the interior guidance and strip and aluminum section. drive system from contamination, The guide rollers of the cover strip ensure low-friction operation, ‘The spacial geometry also ensures an ‘optimal seat for the cover strip even in ‘overhead installations.The variable use of roller guides or Ball rail guides allows optimal adaptation to the application, + Convenient relubrication All AXC-type linear axes with ball sorew or ball ral system are fitted with lubricating nipples on both sides to allow the best possible accessibility. ‘The sorew-type drive and linear ‘guidance are individually regreasable to ensure optimal lubricant supply for both, + Synchronous belt tension Racially adjustable mounting of the deflection pulley ensures 100% adju- stability and reproducibility for the prescribed belt tension. This techno- logy allows retensioning of the belt wit- hhout having to remove the load in case of servicing| Parallel modules Profiles with high rigidity ‘The closed profiles offer high rigidity ‘especially in designs with synchro- nous belt drive + Seal The drive end of the synchronous belt axis is protected by a scraper brush. Guidance system and ball screw are individually regreasable. Lubricating points are located on both front ends of the table top.«Ease of Service ‘The modular design lowers maintenance costs during servicing. The synchronous belts, cover strips and return pulleys of the cover strips can be replaced without having to remove the table or the load. + Optional variants of drive and guidance system Alternative guidance systems consist of two parallel uides equipped with crossed rollers or two ball rl guides, ‘The steel shafts of the roller guide are anchored in the profile at an angle of 45°, Available drive systems are a synchronous belt or precision ball screw. + Seal Side gaskets on the table and specially shaped cover strips protect the guide and drive system from contamination. The cover strips are adapted to the table. Felt wipers safely remove contamination from cover strips and profile. ‘Moreover, the parallel modules can be supplied with a felt wiper and internal seals. This optional design offers more protection; the felt wiper removes debris from cover strips and the section. oinear tables For applications with high loads, especially torque loads, SNR linear tables from the AXLT series provide ‘excellent solutions. ‘The integrated ball screw drive ensures precise movements even under the highest loads. Two parallel bell rail systems ensure that high torque loads are safely absorbed. All internal components such as the screws type drive, the guidance system and the switch may be protected from external forces by optional bellows. «Fastening + Limit switch sensors Depending on mounting position and size, our linear Internal inductive proximity switches or externally tables can be screwed from above or below using attached mechanical limit switches are available as the sliding blocks, thanks to the structure of the base limit stop devices. board. 8| Telescopic axes SNR telescopic axes are distinguished by their optimally synchronized guidance systems and synchronous beltrack and pinion drive combination. ‘They are especially suitable for use in confined installation spaces. Our modulos are suitable for both vertical and horizontal applications, with the same dimensions and can achieve speeds of up to 10 mis, Telescopic axes can be delivered in combination with our gantry axes as a complete system or built into ‘oxisting systems or new concepts as an individual module. + Drive ‘Telescopic function through a combined drive comprising of a rack-and-pinion and synchronous belt drive. + Lubrication Optimal lubricant supply is ensured for the rack and pinion drive by the use of @ permanent lubrication system in ‘combination witha felt-toothed wheel « Shock absorbers Standard structural shock absorbers ‘are used as mechanical limit switches,ing axes with rack and pinion drive 'SNR lifting axes are predominantly used in the field of vertical handling in linear and surface gantries due to the high dynamic load transmission capacity of the rack and pinion drive. Weights of up to 1000 kg can bbe moved thanks to the variable profile design and the rigid parallel construction of the ball rail system. It vertical axes are used, we also recommend the use of newsletter No. 005 "Gravity-loaded axes (vertical axes)" 02/2004 edition from the technical committee on engineering, production systems, and steel construction In vertical axes, unintentional drop may be hazardous. To guarantee sulficient protection and reduce the hazard tisk, a holding brake can be used as redundant element. ‘SIV lifting axis can be fitted with holding brakes, upon demand (see application example on page 123). + Lubrication ‘Optimal lubricant supply is ensured for the rack and pinion drive through the use of a permanent lubrication system in combination with a felt-toothed ‘wheel. Optionally, connection can also bbe made here to a central lubrication system. * Shock absorbers Ina vertical mounting position, struc- tural shock absorbers are used for the mechanical stop posttion limit. These shock absorbers are dimensioned according to the maximum loads of the various installation sizes.| Gantry axes Gantry axes are characterized by high load capacity and total lengths of up to 10 m. Modules with synchronous belt drive are available for highly dynamic applications. Since bal rail guides are also used in these linear axes, they are distinguished by their exceptionally quiet running, even at high speeds. For applications where long lifting distances and the rigiity of the drive components are major conside- rations, our rack-and-pinion-driven linear axes offer multiple possibilities, since all the basic components, such as aluminum sections, guide bars and the rack and pinion can be extended to virtually any length to tenable on-site assembly. In these variants several carriage units can also be moved on one axis independently of each other. + Damper For SNR gantry axes, only hydraulic buffer shock absor- bers are used as mechanical limit switches. * Guidance system Highest loads and smooth running performance due to parallel ball ral systems. + Lubrication Optimal lubricant supply is lensured for the rack and pinion rive through the use of a permanent lubrication system in combination with a felt-toothed wheel. Optionally, the connec- tion can also be made here to a central lubrication system.1 Guidance systems The dynamic load-bearing capacities of both profile rail and roller guide systems are based on a nominal ser- Vice life of 54,000 km for synchronous belt drives and 27,000 km for screw-type drives. Where static alte nating loads are involved, the dynamic limit values need to be taken into account when sizing, Please consult our calculations department when dealing with unusual and complex loading situations. The AXC, AXDL, AXLT and AXS-series Iinear modules are fitted with caged ball ral systems. When the tracks are arranged at an angle of 45° SNR ball load rating in all main load directions. is can be used on all systems and have the same Other features of SNR caged ball ral system with integrated lubricant reservoir include: Long service life, maintenance-free over a long period, low heat generation High tolerance compensation and error compensation capacity through X arrangement of the rails. Low noise level, high running smoothness through additional distance balls on the chain ends. * Speed up to 5 mis, acceleration up to 50 m/s®* Roller guide All sizes from the AXC and AXOL series are also available in alternative versions with a roller guide system, This system consists of rollers which rol on burnished, tempered steel shafts incorporated in the aluminium section. The steel shafts are permanently supplied with lubricating oil from an oll reservoir that can be refilled from the outside, ‘Thanks to the eccentric mounting of the two rollers the guidance system can be precisely adjusted, thus maintaining the correct initial preload or zero backlash set at the factory. This technology provides for excellent running properties. * Without guidance system Linear axes without guidance syé 1m are referred to as feed axes, The difference between the feed axes. and axes with rollers and rail guides is that forces can only be accomodated in the drive direction and itis not possiole to handle moments. Linear axes without a guidance system are used in applications in which a separate guidance system is, required as a result of loads or rigidity requirements, to)| The drive systems * Synchronous belt drive The synchronous belt drive is used primarily for fast handling and positioning tasks since speed is the primary objective. All sizes from the AXC series are equipped with AT-type synchronous belts + Integrated pulleys ‘The integrated pulleys allow an optimal ratio between lit and total length as well as a continuous aluminum section. The advantages for the user are an extremely compact installation and significantly greater flexibility In the fastening of the linear axis. + Synchronous belt clamping ‘The belt clamp allows the high strength joining ofthe synchronous belt ‘80 that its full load-bearing capacity is retained.* Synchronous belt drive in Omega design ‘The Omega drive isa variant of the synchronous belt crve, elt clamping * Drive ‘The synchronous belt clamping is located at the ‘The drive components (pulley, deflection pulleys) ‘ends of the linear axis where the entire belt wicth are built into the carriage. is used, + Dynamics Optimized for high dynamic performance with light ‘to average loads in a vertical mounting position due tothe low moving dead mass, as the drive is mounted ‘on the stationary carriage,| The drive systems * Screw-type drive Screw-type drives, especialy ball screws, is used where high where high postioning and repeat accuracies are required in combination with high rigity of the drive elements. Trapezoidal thread drives with various pitches are also avilable for simple low-speed movements. + Spindle support + Accuracy / Quality At higher speeds our screw-type drives are In the standard versions, our AXC and AXLT linear modules are equipped with rolled ball screw spindles (pitch accuracy: 52 pm/ ‘800 mm) and low-backlash nuts. Ball screws with higher pitch accuracies and pre-stressed nuts are also available for more ‘sophisticated positioning tasks. equipped with corresponding spindle supports to ensure secure operation, a* Rack and pinion drive Rack and pinion drives are available as another drive system for linear axes from the AXS series, Vertical applications in particular prove extremely reiable with this drive system. + Long travel distances + Rack and pinion / Gearwheel Rack and pinion extensions can be added for Induction hardened racks and pinions and the theoretically unlimited travel distances. associated gearwheels ensure high service ite. The rack and pinion drive offers the highest rigidity in a drive system, even under high loads.pact module belt drive and roller guide| Loads and torque loads Pooler gues To number v Table length [mm 120 Toads IN] yn. stat Fy 310 330, Fz 170 300, Fz 170 200, Torque Toads INT ayn stat Mix 2 28 My 3 a5: Mz, T 7a ‘eran as bain capaci ota gucenesesem ro | Technical spe Wax averse rate UTA) BOO Drive element ‘Allowable. dyn. working load IN] Tiftper revolution [mm} Taling speed torque [Nm O16 Tnertia [kgem2] 0,035 ‘Geometrical moment of inertia ly [er 3521 ‘Geometrical moment of inertia lz [or 12,16 Maximal total length [ml or 1) Greater ngs upon eavest.
