Drive Lines now supplying Grob compact linear chains

If space is limited, or screw jacks and linear actuators are not available in the specific size or functionality that the design requires, linear chain can offer more versatility and both push and pull functionality in smaller spaces, awkward spaces and on a large scale when significant motion is required in the most efficient, compact way.

The full range of linear chain offers thrust from 3kN to 35kN and, thanks to the locking design, can push linearly as effectively as it pulls, then coiling for compact, unobtrusive storage.

This design makes linear chain an excellent choice for applications in which more traditional linear motion components, such as screw jacks or actuators, are not practical; examples of locations in which linear chain has already been successfully implemented are:

• Lifting tables
• Stage platforms
• Warehousing/logistics
• Refrigeration systems
• Modern building systems
• Driverless transport systems
• Feeding furnaces
