The DGE-RF offers within its flexible design a guidance system comprising precision rollers operating on a hardened steel surface. Said to be ideal for applications requiring high speeds (10 m/sec) for working strokes up to 5 m with low noise, repeatability of ±0.1 mm and loads to 600 N, the axis is able to work in a contaminated environment. It is reported to be low-maintenance because roller bearings maintain lubrication better than do typical recirculating, ball-type linear bearings. With minimal friction, there is an internally protected roller guide with integrated grease reserves. Because of mounting options on three sides of the main profile, it adapts easily to the multiaxis modular system.
