OverviewDLG series integrates a stepper motor, ball screw and linear guide in a compact assembly to provide precise linear motion and simplified mechanical integration. Guide-supported DLG units reduce external components (couplings, supports) and enable space-saving, high-precision positioning. Size 42 (NEMA 17) is available with 40 mm and 70 mm stroke. A non-guide variant (DRS series) is available as an option.
