It is very dynamic with a low weight, has a long service life and sealed rollers. Like all Franke products the Linear Motor System has been designed to customer-specific requirements and is also available as a complete system on request. Would you like more information now?

Our employees are trained in responsible resource and energy management at regular intervals. Naturally, Franke products are also designed so that they meet the high demands of sustainability. The Franke principle forms the basis of this. In contrast to conventional bearings the rolling motion here takes place with little vibration on four open race rings. Thanks to this special principle, Franke Antifriction Bearings can be used directly in the mating structure. This facilitates construction of light-weight components, of aluminium for example, and reduces the mobile mass, which has a positive effect on the required drive energy. The same applies to Franke Linear Systems. All guide bodies and rails are made from high-strength aluminium. This means guide designs can be realised that are 65 % lighter than steel guides. Franke components also save weight and driver energy here.
