THE PHILOSOPHY OF “OMET LINEAR MOTION”

OMET proposes three ranges of complete modules aiming at satisfying the most varied needs in the field of linear motion. From the most economic to the most performing one, everything is to be evaluated according to the application. The system is composed of a pivot-pin cursor (adjustable central pin) sliding inside a C-shaped rail with inner sliding rails. The prominent features common to all ranges are: ? ASSEMBLY SIMPLICITY All the rails are provided with fastening holes so that the assembler does not have to make any further operation. If the application requires supplementary holes on the rail, a special “reference groove” allows the point self-centering. ? COMPACT DIMENSIONS, LIGHTNESS AND LONG LIFE The rails have sliding races in internal position and are therefore protected by accidental external impacts. The coupling cursor-rail has a very compact design. The rails and cursors are in aluminum alloy, which confers the system extreme lightness. In the case of the models T,6002,…. e T,6003,…. , the rails are made by coupling a supporting element in aluminum alloy with hardened and ground steel bars that make up the sliding surface. The aluminum extruded profiles are stabilized and anodized. ? INTERCHANGEABILITY AND CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT OMET supplies the cursor-rail system already provided with the most suitable adjustment to guarantee the declared features. The same customer, in the assembly phase, can anyway easily intervene to adjust the clearance. This means that the cursors can be adapted in any rail (clearly of the same typology) and then cursors and rails can be ordered and stocked separately and “adjusted at the moment” according to the needs of the application. ? INFINITE APPLICATION POSSIBILITIES The simplicity and cheapness of our systems allowed us to work out solutions in various sectors: - machines for wood processing - handling in general - casings in general - palletizers - small automations - automatic gates - protection heads for machine tools - automation in general Our technical service cooperates with the customers to choose the optimal solution for each specific application.
