Dualvee technology extends to subzero climates
A
Hepcomotion product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
Oct 21, 2009
Hepcomotion is offering the low-temperature Dualvee motion technology range from Bishopwisecarver.
Dualvee systems can now be specified for automation systems in aerospace, refrigeration and other subzero climates.
Dualvee guide wheels can be provided with custom or customer-supplied lubricants generally within a three week lead time
They are suitable for anti-friction guidance mechanisms, typically in pick-and-place units and in packaging machinery that does not require the high precision of the Hepcomotion GV3 system.
It comprises three basic components - tracks, guide wheels and bushings - all of which can be individually supplied.
The new low-temperature additions to the wheel range are available in sizes one to four.
They feature 440C stainless-steel balls and races and 304 stainless-steel retainers.
A specially formulated lubricant allows them to withstand service temperatures from -70C to +110C.
They join a collection of other Dualvee wheel options, including high-temperature, wash-down, clean-room and stainless-steel versions.
Dualvee guide wheels can be provided with custom or customer-supplied lubricants, generally within a three-week lead time.
Lubrication-free wheels can also be specified for applications such as food processing and medical device manufacture, where non-contamination by grease is a prerequisite.
