New Techno ZF1 Belt Drive Slide Lowers Automation Costs

New Hyde Park, NY (PRWEB) April 28, 2009 -- Techno, Inc. Linear Motion Systems is proud to announce the ZF1 Belt Drive Slide, a low cost, economical slide that can lower your costs in factory automation applications. This lightweight model is driven by a 9 mm wide HTD belt that can be ordered in travels ranging from 153 mm (6") through 2853 mm (112.3"). Perfect for tight spaces, the ZF1 Belt Drive Slide is 30 mm wide with an accompanying carriage that is 72 mm wide. The small width of the slide allows it to fit into tight spaces, increasing the versatility and options any machine builder might need in their design.

"The ZF1 Belt Drive Slide is our most economical option, customers will receive a slide that is compact, but powerful," says Joe Griffin, Linear Motion Sales Manager. "The carriage rides on two precision ground steel shafts that are supported the entire length of travel to minimize deflection, while the HTD belt profile helps to eliminate backlash."

Techno's ZF1 Belt Drive Slides have a maximum speed of 1.5 m/sec., and can be ordered with a 200W (2:1 Ratio), 100W (2:1 Ratio) servomotors, 50 N•cm, 160 N•cm (2:1 Ratio) stepper motors, or a 2:1 Ratio Assembly with no motor. The belt drive pulley is 19.1 mm in diameter and has a specific mass of 0.0225 kg/m.
