igus has developed an extra-compact toothed belt axis, the drylin ZLN, based on its flat drylin N linear system.

Consisting of a completely standard fitment of components, it is easily assemble, equipped with motor and control. It can carry loads of up to 20 Newton and a translation of 60mm per revolution.

Whether in vending machines, service robotics or even automation systems, the new compact toothed belt system can be installed quickly and easily in the smallest of spaces. The flat drylin N linear guide ensures compact construction, which is just 27mm high and 40mm wide.

The toothed belt mounted on ball bearings enables high speed dynamics. By using high-performance polymers in the sliding carriage, users can completely dispense with lubricants and thus the maintenance of the unit.

A completely ready-to-install drylin ZLN can be ordered with NEMA stepper motors or with EC/BLDC DC motors as well as a suitable dryve control system. The toothed belt axis can be delivered from Treotham in the desired size with a maximum length of up to 750mm.
