Home / Linear axes / LX Automation
Our LX linear axis programme is made in the EU. All series are built on anodised aluminium profiles with preloaded recirculating ball guides, and they combine into multi-axis systems and Cartesian gantries.
A polyurethane timing belt with steel tension cords gives fast, smooth travel over long strokes. Built for high speed and dynamic handling.
High-speed linear motion where there is dust, chips or other contamination. A stainless steel cover strip protects the belt and guides inside the rigid aluminium profile.
Used in automation lines, material handling, assembly equipment and Cartesian gantries where high dynamics, rigidity and full protection of the internals matter. Compatible with synchronisation kits and accessories for multi-axis systems.

Fast, precise and reliable motion, mounted horizontally or vertically. The self-supporting profile can be installed directly on the machine without extra supports.
The belt runs quietly even over long strokes. A reversible drive unit lets you mount the motor on either side of the actuator. The modular design fits Cartesian gantries, handling systems and production lines with little maintenance.

Here the profile moves while the carriage stays fixed. That makes the ZB right for vertical Z axes in Cartesian gantries, lifting modules and inverted set-ups, where low moving mass and high rigidity are both needed.
Smooth, repeatable motion even with significant loads, and long service life in continuous duty.

For applications that need precise motion, high rigidity and accurate positioning control.
Two parallel ball guides give exceptional resistance to tilting moments and a very stable carriage, even with off-centre or dynamic loads. Available with one or two carriages.
Suited to positioning systems, assembly equipment and precision automation where rigidity, accuracy and long-term reliability matter.
Precise, rigid and reliable motion where space is limited. The aluminium profile keeps the footprint and weight down, and the ball screw gives accurate positioning over short to medium strokes.
Easy to build into Cartesian gantries, assembly modules and handling systems.
A modular linear transfer system that extends the working area of industrial robots and cobots. Four sizes cover different payloads, dynamics and installation needs.
