Innovative guide technology, high rigidity and guide load capacity for more load in the same installation space - these are the features of the new ELGD axis family from Festo. In addition, powerful drive elements offer high feed forces and accelerations for shorter cycle times and a long service life. A stainless steel cover strip is friction-free on the outside and does not allow any particles to form there. This makes the drives in the axis family ideal for use in cleanrooms.
