Custom MacBUILT Screw Driven Actuator System
Macron Manufacturers Representatives can get pretty creative when working with our customers to solve challenging motion problems. Despite the heavy load of the ceramic material that needed to be carried, one of our reps came up with a simple MacBUILT solution.
A MSA-DRT dual rail screw table was sandwiched between two large MacFRAME squares about the size of a standard pallet. Four short stroke 25 series linear bearings in each frame corner provide load bearing support and smooth guided motion over about a 6-inch travel.
Custom MacBUILT Solution
We created this screw table as a part of a shuttle assembly used to move a molding fixture in a ceramics fabrication process. Due to the heavy load of the ceramic material being transported, the dual rail table and linear bearings were the ideal components due to their stout design characteristics and fluid range of motion. This screw table solution features many design elements that are ideal for harsh manufacturing environments including special seals used on both linear load carrying bearings and a ball screw that provides superior load carrying capabilities.
