Room gantry from Igus for 3D movements

Igus drylin Room GantryTribopolymer specialist Igus’ latest video looks at the specifications of its new drylin room gantry. Used to implement three-dimensional applications, the room gantry is based on a flat gantry system with a vertical axis.

With the limit switch assembly housed within a T-slot, the complete length of the room gantry profile can be used, enhancing its capabilities. Thanks to the self-lubricating nature of the drylin components, Igus says the room gantry requires no maintenance.

The drylin room gantry has a working space of 500x500x100mm and can carry payloads of up to 2.5kg. With an accuracy of up to 0.1mm and speeds of up to 0.5m/s, Igus says the room gantry is ideal for general pick and place applications, including those found in the medical and microelectronics industries where specific placement and careful handling is essential.

The standard room gantry is available for delivery within 24 hours, whilst custom room gantry systems are also available for customer specifications.
