Robust positioning solution
When a manufacturer of insulation products needed to position mould tools from a 50m long conveyor into various filling stations under extremely hostile conditions it turned to HepcoMotion for a solution.
A combination of an HD beam 10.6m long with common rack driven carriage to enable direct fitting of the Z axis offered a robust solution that would be unphased by the conditions. Both these axes function with only cap wipers to wipe debris from the slides and protect the bearings.
Belt driven systems for both XY table movements were protected by bellows as this is where most of the contamination takes place.
