Schneeberger

Roller guideway for the machine tool industry.

High rigidity, great dynamic and static load carrying capacity, outstanding running smoothness and the total enclosure of the carriage are the main features of the MONORAIL guideway. These properties result in higher machining rates while enhancing geometrical accuracy and surface quality of the machined workpieces. Our highly rigid MONORAIL provides improved vibration behavior, smaller vibration amplitudes and thus extends tool life.

BM ball guideways are reliable components for the entire range of industrial applications.

SCHNEEBERGER's MONORAIL BM linear ball guides features excellent dynamic properties and many commercial benefits. Designed with a small number of cleverly arranged components, it provides for excellent running properties due to the small number of transitions in the ball tracks, which lead to very quiet running, low pulsation and low friction as well as high travel speeds. The use of a trapezoidal rail section results in an extremely rigid guideway coupled with a substantial reduction in servicing time as additional wipers can be changed without dismantling the carriage. Complete sealing of the carriage guarantees maximum reliability coupled with a long service life. This robust and economical guideway rounds off SCHNEEBERGER's range of products for industrial applications with high demands on speed, reliability and consistent running properties.

Ball guideway in corrosion-resistant steel for the food industry, clean room applications and more.

They were developed specially for specifications which would exceed the requirements of ordinary coatings for linear guideways. This is the case when the performance of the product is impaired by corrosion during processes. In applications such as machines for foodstuffs, medical technology and cleanrooms, or vacuum applications, MONORAIL BM WR/SR products ensure that the operation of linear axes is clean, accurate, long-term and free of problems. Furthermore, the MONORAIL WR/SR has the same tried and tested properties of the MONORAIL BM, such as the most effective operating characteristics, high travel speeds and a long operating life.

MINIRAIL / MINI-XMiniature guideways are compact and precise for maximum productivity

They are extremely robust. Their smooth running precision and reliability are demonstrated in every application. The design, material selection and surface finish of the recirculation element and ball entry zone, guarantee low pulsation and therefore a smooth ride. The range includes eight rail widths which can be combined with up to four carriage sizes.

MONORAIL AMSA 3B is an integrated measuring system for distance measurement for use on all protected machine tool axes with high demands on system precision. Mechanically the AMSA 3B is based on SCHNEEBERGER’s MR MONORAIL roller guide with lengths up to 6 meters. The integration of the measurement system allows very compact axes to be put together.

The product AMSABS 3B for roller guideways now combines proven magneto-resistive measuring technology with an absolute digital interface.

With the MONORAIL AMSABS 4B, SCHNEEBERGER provides an integrated measuring system for absolute distance measurement for use in automation engineering, mechanical handling technology and machine tool engineering, whereby high force absorption and precise distance measurements are required in small assembly spaces. From a mechanical point of view, the AMSABS 4B is based on the MONORAIL BM roller guide up to a length of 6m. The distance measurement system’s compact housing facilitates the construction of highly compact axes.

AMSA 3L "The product for all lengths" is now made possible by highly accurate machining and measurement of the rails. A special design of the rail ends for butt joints, when used in combination with the AMSA 3L reading head, allows the carriage to run over the butt joint, so that measuring axes of any desired length can be constructed.
