Electric linear gantry module A-351 MGS

• Precision recirculating ball bearing guides • Absolute encoder • High-performance ironless linear motors • Various travel ranges. Options and customized adaptations • Flexible modular platform The PIglide MGS hybrid gantry stage has been designed to maximize throughput for applications requiring overhead motion. This stage is ideal for 3D printing, assembly, pick-and-place, alignment, inspection, and industrial automation applications. The MGS uses preloaded linear mechanical bearings which are designed to provide optimized stiffness and precision. Optional stainless steel rails can be included. The gantry axis incorporates dual linear motors and dual linear encoders. Ironless linear motors provide smooth motion and no cogging or attractive forces. The linear motor and linear and linear encoders are noncontact devices, so there is no backlash, wear or maintenance concerns. The MGS is coupled with industry-leading ACS controls and drives that offer superior servo performance, advanced control algorithms to improve dynamic performance and error compensation, and a wide suite of software development tools. Application fields Scanning, Digital printing, Electronics assembly and inspection, AOI (Automatic Optical Inspection), Automation.
