Bishop-Wisecarver Hepcomotion DTS - Driven Track System |
DTS utilizes oval and rectangular track systems and provides actuation by means of a high tensile strength timing belt. Motion may either be continuous or intermittent to fit customer needs. Carriages are often fixed to the timing belt at equal pitch lengths, and in the event that a carriage’s path is impeded, it will disengage from the drive. DTS may also be mounted to high strength aluminum beams. These DTS positioning table systems are fully compatible with extrusion framing. Other accessories and options include AC geared motors, IEC frame gearboxes, pulley bearing units, trip latches, and sensor mounting brackets. |
