Igus highlights simple pick-and-place automation
Automating tasks greatly assists manufacturing effectiveness, enabling lower costs, shorter production times and faster response with local production. The drylin E modular gantry system from Igus provides a simple, affordable and reliable way of automating pick-and-place, test and measurement, or labelling and marking functions. A complete system can be easily constructed utilising drylin E linear modules, toothed belts, gear racks and NEMA stepper motors. Igus energy chains and cabling are used to protect wiring during movement and assist gantry operation.
The maintenance-free drylin E flat gantry requires no external lubrication and offers clean, corrosion free operation. It is suitable for loads up to 30kg, and can reach speeds of up to 1.5m/s. These are also available in X, Y and Z-axis units and other gantry systems. In addition, drylin E is compact and light-weight, with all motor flanges, screws, and connecting plates supplied from a single source.
Readily available and delivered quickly, drylin E has been developed by igus with customer needs in mind; in order to help engineers and designers find the right solution for the right application, systems and applications can now be selected, calculated and ordered online.
