Leading bearings, linear systems and power transmission distributor Acorn Industrial Services will be exhibiting a wide range of linear motion products from world class manufacturers Nadella, THK and SKF at the Southern Manufacturing show at Five, Farnbrough - the UK’s largest regional manufacturing technology show.
Nadella’s new C-Line LS series is a complete guide system consisting of a guide rail, guide rollers and carriage. The system boasts a rail manufactured from drawn steel, induction hardened and zinc plated for long term reliable use. The design allows for parallelism and mounting surface errors, leading to simpler and less costly installation. The C-Line rollers are lubricated for life and feature an integrated lubricating system. The carriages have concentric and eccentric rollers allowing the running characteristics to be adjusted to suit the application. This easy, smooth running system is able to achieve speeds up to 8m/s and acceleration up to 50m/s2.
Nadella’s C line linear guide system can be used for a wide range of applications in both general and automated machinery. It is particularly well suited where the installation dictates a higher tolerance to rail misalignment and surface mounting errors than the use of profile rail guides would dictate. Furthermore, these guides can be used in contaminated environments where profile rail guides would not be suitable.
In addition to the new C-Line guide rail, Nadella’s FSRO Oval circuit, belt drive actuator, its Heavy Line, V-Line, U-Line and Base Line guide rails will also be on display, alongside products from THK and SKF.
In addition to seeing and handling products, Acorn's Product Manager - Simon Gillingham, together with technical experts from industry leading manufacturers, will be on hand to answer any queries or provide detailed application advice.
