Solutions
Linear Axis
Handling weights from just a few kilos up to several tons, our linear axes are indispensable for linear movements where dynamics, efficiency, and low noise levels are key. Thanks to Güdel’s modular system, our components can be easily combined as and when required to form single-axis, multiple-axis, and rotary modules.
Linear Track Motion
Handling weights from just a few kilos up to several tons, our linear axes are indispensable for linear movements where dynamics, efficiency, and low noise levels are key. Thanks to Güdel’s modular system, our components can be easily combined as and when required to form single-axis, multiple-axis, and rotary modules.
Products
Gearboxes
Whether it is angular drives or large torques: with our wide range of solutions for angle gearboxes, planetary gearboxes and drive units, we offer you maximum flexibility in your choice of power transmission. They are available in various sizes and can be combined in many different ways. Furthermore, all Güdel units are also very suitable for use with other components to create dynamic power chains. We recommend our perfectly matched function packages for this – consisting of gears, racks and pinions.
Linear Guideways
Our linear systems, with their longitudinal precision guides and drivetrain components, provide high speed and acceleration and enable a moving mass weighing anywhere between ten kilos and several tons to be positioned with the utmost accuracy. The modular system comprises the following basic elements: guide rollers, tracks (with or without in-built racks), pinions and beams. The assembly can be employed anywhere and has several advantages over traditional recirculating ball systems. Because of its compactness and the integrated racks for the drive, it is an excellent solution in premises where space is at a premium.
