Linear Slide Option
Features
• Screw driven slide offering exceptional linear speed, accurate positioning and long life at a compelling
value
• High bidirectional repeatability of up to 50 micro-inches (1.25 microns)
•
Positional lead accuracy of 0.0006"/in. – accuracies to 0.0001"/in. available
• Linear speeds not limited by critical screw speed
• Standard leads:
- 0.10" travel per revolution - 0.50" travel per revolution

• Achieve speeds that exceed 60.0"/second while offering excellent repeatability, accuracy and axial
stiffness
• Optional sensor flag kit available for home, limits and general purpose inputs
• Assembly includes a precision aluminum guide and carriage which is driven by a precision rolled
stainless steel lead screw
• Sliding contact areas coated with TFE (Teflon) permanent lubrication to offer a low 0.09 coefficient of
friction
• Exceptional torsional stiffness and stability
• Standard lengths from 12.0" to 42.0", longer sizes available upon request
• Comes standard with wear-compensating, anti-backlash driven carriage
• Additional passive carriages or slides available to support cantilevered loads
• Easily mountable with provided mounting flange and holes
• Extrusions provided for sensor mounts
