LRS^™ – Linear Rail Systems - Slide Technology

Haydon Linear Rail Systems (LRS) use a precision leadscrew assembly mechanism to provide controlled positioning along the axis of a robust aluminum linear slide. The LRS consists of a stationary base with a load bearing carriage that travels along a customextruded aluminum rail of varying lengths. The carriage is a small platform with sliding element linear bearings that glide within this specially configured extrusion. The leadscrew used in the system is provided with various leads and shaft end configurations that accommodate virtually any source of rotary power.

Key Product Features

• “T” slots integrated into exterior rail bottom and sides that accommodate full length support and various mounting options.
• Loads easily attach to the compact, moving carriage with four or six M4 x 0.7 size screws.
• Load bearing carriage moves efficiently and smoothly within the internal rail geometry of this specially designed aluminum extrusion.
• Rail provides end-to-end axial stability and precise motion system accuracy.
• Automatic adjustments of slide bearing play with a patent pending “anti-backlash” linear bearing.
• Rated life equals that of the existing leadscrews of similar size.
• Leadscrew end configurations adapt to various rotary motion sources.
• Kerkote^® or Black Ice^™ TFE coatings on a 303 stainless steel leadscrew.
• Designed to Metric global engineering standards.
• For extreme control, LRS can be used with CMP or WDG high-precision anti-backlash nuts, as well as a freewheeling general purpose nut.
