igus has now developed a new linear and spatial gantry especially for large workspaces. With the two new kinematics, users can now move up to five kilograms. Both gantries are available directly from stock. In addition, they can be customized to the respective customer application, starting from a quantity of 1.
The manufacturer igus recently presented a new linear gantry and a new room gantry with an enlarged working area. The two gantries consist of pre-configured linear modules, linear axes made of aluminum and NEMA stepper motors as well as encoders.

The new line gantry can carry loads of up to 50 Newtons at a maximum speed of up to one meter per second in a working area measuring 800 by 500 millimeters.
Room portal
The new room gantry is ideal for more complex tasks. It can be used to transport loads of up to 50 newtons in a working area of 800 x 800 x 500 millimetres at a maximum speed of 0.5 meters per second. Two ZLW toothed belt axes and one GRR rack and pinion axis ensure precise guidance and lubrication-free running. dsc
