Especially for larger handling applications, linear technology specialist Rollon has developed the O-Rail. The strong, simple and versatile linear system has a robust guide with three raceways.

It presents itself in high-quality, matte black: The O-Rail track has its color not because of an aesthetic decision. The rail's hardened, high-strength and heavy-duty steel has been oxidized black using the patented Rollon NOx process, which makes it particularly wear-resistant and reliably protects it against corrosion.

The rail's FXRG guide has three raceways arranged at a 90º angle. Rollers with a solid outer ring and double-row bearings ensure high load capacity, smooth and quiet operation even at high speeds.

These are lubricated for life with a special grease and can therefore be used permanently in a temperature range from -40 to +130 °C. The finely polished raceways have a gothic profile, enabling high rolling precision with very low friction and a long service life.

Self-Aligning Linear System

By using multiple parallel and arbitrarily extendable O-Rail rail segments, in conjunction with adjustable fixed and floating bearing rollers, the user can create a variety of combinations in linear motion. A major advantage of the linear system comes into play here: two parallel rails together form a self-aligning system that compensates for mounting inaccuracies of ±1 mm axially and ±5º in rotation. This saves costs in the adjacent construction, while still achieving smooth and reliable performance.

The O-Rail provides smooth motion even on uneven surfaces and is a versatile linear system suitable for a wide variety of applications.
