Schneeberger Linear ball guides feature excellent dynamic properties and offer many commercial benefits. Designed with a small number of cleverly arranged components, they provide for excellent running properties due to the small number of transitions in the ball tracks. This leads to very quiet running, low pulsation and low friction as well as high travel speeds. Additionally, the complete sealing of the carriage guarantees maximum reliability and a long service life. Moore International stocks a wide range of Schneeberger Linear Technology products here in the UK. This enables us to provide high-precision, German linear rail and carriages in a wide variety of sizes from stock for next-day delivery but if we don’t have exactly what you need, we’ll do our best to get them to you as soon as we possibly can.
Ball Screws Ballscrews are a highly efficient way of converting rotary to linear motion. This is due to the Ballscrew's high reliability, precision and efficiency compared to more traditional power transmission components such as belt or chain drives (which we also distribute). Ball screws are more efficient and have a longer life span than acme or trapezoidal threads. The main reason behind a ball screw's efficiency is the presence of ball bearings that are housed within the nut. The bearings run on the cold-rolled thread, greatly reducing the amount of friction between the screw and nut themselves. The design of the nut cleverly allows the ball bearings to re-circulate, resulting in a longer and more predictable lifetime.
Satellite Screws The rigid design of a Satellite Roller Screw also known as Planetary Roller Screws give them the ability to deliver very heavy load capacity due to the many contact points between the rollers and screw. Satellite roller screws can be up to 90% efficient and have an expected life up to 15 times longer than any ball screw equivalent. They allow for high acceleration and deceleration and in some designs could even exceed 5000 rpm, making the roller screw product a superior linear drive alternative.
Zimmer Linear Clamps for Linear Guideways are available from Moore International and offer a host of exciting features for your dynamic and static braking requirements Linear technology is drive technology in its most straight forward form – the whole system moves in one direction. Key features of this technology are low-friction running and the ability to hold the system securely or, if required, to brake securely. The Zimmer Group develops customer-specific linear technology components and systems for you. Zimmer strive to meet your individual requirements in terms of technology, processing, engineering, and costs and all this is available through Moore International.
