Ballscrews provide higher driving forces
For arduous applications where a belt-driven linear motion system does not provide the required accuracy or load capacity, a ballscrew driven heavy duty system provides higher driving forces.
For arduous applications where a belt-driven linear motion system does not provide the required accuracy or load capacity, Hepco has introduced its new HDFS Ballscrew Driven Heavy Duty System This combines Hepco's proven Heavy Duty extruded aluminium beam system with hardened and ground slides, and its FB Fastline Ballscrews

Screw jacks are corrosion resistant
Screw jacks are c orrosion resistant for lifting of any load under chemical or moisture conditions or where hygienic and contaminant-free operation is wanted.
Universal linear motion system offered
A universal linear motion system offers a wide range of sizes, types and precision grades to meet most automation application needs.
Much higher driving forces are the result, enabling load capacities of up to 4 tonnes to be accommodated.
Heavy Duty bearings in 95mm or 64mm diameters are supplied to suit the load, with capseals to enhance load bearing ability and longevity of the system.
Active resistance to contamination is assured by the system's Vee-guide, making it the ideal choice for harsh environments.
Beam lengths of up to 4m may be specified.
The FB Fastline Ballscrews are rolled with precision ground nuts and are available in 5 and 10mm pitches depending on the speed required.
The options also include low backlash nuts for standard operation and pre-loaded nuts for greater precision.
In addition to greater precision and capacity, the ballscrew system provides additional benefits over other drive options.
It is suited to very low speed operation without a high ratio gearbox and does not require the expensive guarding required as protection against belt or chain failure.
The new FB Ballscrew Driven Heavy Duty System will be supplied complete and ready to install with fitted motor if necessary.
Suitable motor control is available as an option. Request a free brochure from HepcoMotion ...
