Colorful telescopic rails variety

October 26.10.2020, XNUMX | With the standard colors dark gray, light gray and white, the look of the guide rails always adapts to the surroundings. Now expanded Igus the color spectrum around the tones orange and blue. It is also possible to create a desired color to suit the application environment.

The first Drylin telescopic rail made of plastic does not require any metal components. It can be installed quickly and intuitively. The extension length is 150 mm. In addition, the new telescopic rail is light, smear-free, corrosion-resistant and does not rattle due to the spring preload.

Easily automated with synchronized guided telescopic rails

Aug 22.08.2017, XNUMX | Telescopic rails in automated processes must implement high cycle numbers, maximum speeds and continuous operation. In order to better meet these requirements, Rollon with the "Telescopic Rail" series DEF43Z, a synchronized, compact full telescope.

The three-part one Full extension consists of a central element and two rotors, which are synchronized with each other using milled teeth and a pinion. Without changing the product dimensions, it was possible to integrate positive properties for automation. The position of the intermediate element is now determined through synchronization. The load on the internal stops can be reduced to a minimum, thus avoiding wear and noise.

The greasing of the gearing and the pinion takes place via two lubrication channels. The intermediate element has connection holes to accommodate drives such as Pneumaticscylinders or electric drives to automatically extend and retract the telescopic rail. Depending on the application, travel speeds of a maximum of 0,8 m/s can be achieved.

The feasible stroke is reduced by the necessary overlapping of the teeth and amounts to approx. 93% of the closed telescope length. In return, the synchronized telescopes have a higher load rating than the unsynchronized pull-outs. By synchronizing the telescopic guide, the drives can be made smaller. To achieve the full stroke of the telescope, the drive only needs 50% of the extension length. This reduces the operating costs and increases the design options.

The telescopic rails for universal use in mechanical engineering, vehicle technology and logistics are made from cold-drawn carbon steel. The running surfaces are inductively hardened and the balls are made of hardened Rollingsteel. This combination of materials ensures low-wear operation and thus a long service life Telescopic Rail DEF43Z.
