The profiled guide slide PFS is available in 5 series with sizes from 100 mm up to 425 mm width and strokes up to 2000 mm. To protect them against dirt accumulations, the slides are covered with bellow covers. Other covers on request. The slides are available in aluminium (nature anodized), or casted iron GGK-25. Optional steel C-45. The ball thread spindle drives are available in the qualities T5 and T7 with spindle pitches from 5 to 50 mm. PFS (basic equipment) ball screw spindle acc. to standard type allocation screwed up bellows cover coated on both sides integrated inductive limit switches (PNP break contact) incl. plug-connector in the endplate

The V shape of the shaft support is the result of purposeful internal development work at Föhrenbach. The most important advantage comes from having the greatest possible distance between the shafts and above all in the lay-out of the four ball-bearing housings whose loadbearing rows of balls are located underneath the shaft. The unitized, modular type like design realized with these devices enables to cover a wide range of application specific solutions. Manufactured in standard widths from 75 to 425 mm and in lenghts of up to 4000 mm, the products are designed to provide solutions that allow to cover almost all handling and mounting tasks that need to be met. An experience of long standing assures for competent solutions.

The highest accuracy class “Ultra-Precision plus” impresses with an accuracy of 0.0005 mm, thus 0.5 µm. Due to the fact that the control unit of the Föhrenbach slides is compatible with the interfaces of almost all measuring systems, this extraordinary repeatability does not depend on a particular system or a specific provider. Föhrenbach profiled guide slides with integrated linear motor are available in the series PFL (with bellows covers) and PCL (with sheet metal covers). For both series three sizes are available. We developed three resp. two linear motors of different force.

Our slides that run on roller bearings, in single-axis or multi-axis designs, are supplied in the materials grey cast iron and aluminium. The roller bearing slides run in preloaded, hardened and ground Vee-guides. This ensures a smooth, zero-play and extremely precise longitudinal movement - even under high load. Slides which must be designed with T-grooves or higher rigidity can be produced in a reinforced version.

This guiding system makes it possible to accurately position your products. Furthermore, you can fix it exactly at the desired place. The innovation lies in the backlash-free clamping, horizontal and vertical side misalignment ≤ 3 μm. Useful advantages: compact sizes and the possibility of adjusting and locking the guide by a hex screwdriver. Clamps permit a fast combination to 2 axis systems and/or 3 axis systems or the fitting of axis systems on a base plate.

Our cross roller guide rails are freely interchangeable standard elements. Our guide rails allow the assembly of extremely rigid and precise linear guides without any play. Benefits Able to carry high loads running extremely smooth require little space long serviceable life Mounting instructions: When mounting the guide rails make sure the bearing surfaces have been machined in a parallel manner and are to the angle. The tolerances of the bearing and mounting surfaces shall conform to the process tolerances of the guide rails (standard quality). The prestress applied depends on the respective mounting conditions, on the rigidity of the assembled slide structure respectively. We recommend to apply a prestress equivalent to a value between 5 and 20 % of the maximum admissible load. However, the load carrying ability of the overall guide rail structure thus realized will, at any case, be reduced by the prestress applied.

EWS quality now available for Swiss-type lathes. This new development in driven tools is EWS's response to many customers' requests. The tool systems may appear straightforward at first sight, but their simplicity belies their performance. The design concentrates on the mounting and the spindle concentricity. The requirement profile was developed jointly with an American medical technology company which uses very small drill bits and requires extreme concentricity properties. The spindle bearing technology used with labyrinth seals sets new standards in this field, and is associated with a long service life. Provision has already been made for service. The service centres in Germany, China, Korea and the USA have already been trained in the system and are ready to respond without delay. Third-party brands can also be serviced there at any time.

Spherical valves are installed upstream of the turbine as shutoff devices specifically for high pressures at the end of the penstock. Their main function is to close off the penstock during normal shutdown or load shedding of the turbine. The seal is a metal sliding ring which is generally moved by water hydraulics. The MANOY® system seal WP, type 434 (outer sealing) and the inner sealing type 439, were developed for sealing of the sliding ring. The profile dimensions can be customized for maintenance or specific requirements.

Face seal used for rotary and oscillating motion in pipe joints and rotary actuators. Used at low to high pressure and low speed

These sliding rings are the solution for designs which only allow room for a small or low housing, but require an operating pressure up to 80 Mpa. They are ideal for retrofitting into existing O‑ring grooves
