Rail system provides precise positioning
The Linear Rail System consists of a stationary base with a load bearing carriage that travels along a custom-extruded wear resistant aluminium rail.

Nuts cut backlash from linear actuators
New anti-backlash nuts are ideal for applications that require precise positioning as they eliminate the minimal backlash between the lead screw and nut interface on external linear actuators.
It uses either a Haydon size 17 hybrid external linear actuator or, for greater performance, a size 17 hybrid double-stack external linear actuator integrated into the slide for a complete single-axis positioning system.
Alternatively, the system may be provided with various leads and shaft end configurations that accommodate virtually any source of rotary power.
Linear Rail Systems also offer control of slide bearing play with a self-adjusting linear bearing.
Integrated "T" slots accommodate full length support and various mounting options.
Loads easily attach to the compact moving carriage with either four or six screws.
The rail provides end to end axial stability and precise motion system accuracy.
Linear Rail Systems can be used with Haydon's high-precision anti-backlash nuts, including C compression style, W wedge style, as well as Haydon freewheeling N style nuts.
Typical applications include medical, instrumentation, plant automation, CNC equipment, food and beverage automation, packaging and custom machinery.
