3. MINI-X Overview

MINI-X embodies the newest generation of miniature guideways for demanding applications. They are extremely robust and prove themselves in every application with their high level of smoothness, precision and reliability.

MINIRAIL – The miniature profiled linear guideway

MINIRAIL

MINIRAIL

  • Process reliability thanks to superior design
  • Speeds up to 5 m/s and acceleration up to 300 m/s2
  • The precisely finished carriages can be interchanged as desired
  • Low risk of contamination thanks to tight clearance between the carriage and guideway
  • Low travel pulsation thanks to optimally shaped ball recirculation
  • Vacuum-compatible down to 10-7 mbar (10-9 mbar on request)
  • The long-term lubrication LUBE-S option enables maintenance-free operation
  • Unlimited rail length

MINISCALE PLUS – Guiding and measuring in one

MINISCALE PLUS

MINISCALE PLUS

  • Due to the fact that the measuring system requires very little space, very compact designs can be implemented
  • Simple installation since the distance measurement does not need calibration
  • Additional components and their installation are not necessary
  • Optimal thermal connection to the machine bed
  • Global drive compatibility

MINISLIDE MS – Maximum performance, minimum space

MINISLIDE MS

MINISLIDE MS

  • The Gothic arc profile of the guideways allows for load capacities which are up to 15 times higher than that of a 90° V-profile
  • MINISLIDE MS enables compact and robust constructions with minimal weight
  • The material used and the outstanding design allow for a high level of rigidity
  • Vacuum-compatible down to 10-7 mbar
  • Cage centring system

MINISLIDE MSQ – Productivity encapsulated

MINISLIDE MSQ

MINISLIDE MSQ

  • Maximum process reliability thanks to integrated cage control
  • The snug, two-row profile of the guideways allows high load capacities, and because of the materials used, unrivalled rigidity
  • MINISLIDE MSQ enables compact and robust constructions with minimal weight
  • Vacuum-compatible down to 10-9 mbar
