This addresses the demands of plant operators for production systems that can be built, rebuilt and rearranged quickly to respond to changing needs.


The standard Linear Motion Unit includes 50-millimeter aluminum extrusions and a common 14-millimeter T-slot, making it compatible with other Robotunits systems. These key elements - along with the company's proprietary fastening technology - enable the Linear Motion System to work in combination with Robotunits' conveyors, material handling components, safety fencing and machine frames.

The unit is available with a single or double carriage, and the system allows the energy chain to attach directly to the carriage without the need for additional components. For advanced applications, the Omega Linear Motion Unit can be used as an individual device or x-y-z gantry to move and position parts with precision.

The Robotunits Linear Motion System also features:
-An integrated belt return inside the extrusion. Three sides of the extrusion can accommodate additional attachments.
-The use of single or double idlers, depending on the load. The idler extrusion features a special captive design for high strength.
-Durable construction, including large rollers.
-Single and multiple guide rails available.
-Limitless combinations and complexity.

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
