Motion Delivered to Perform Expertly Designed, Without Limits TM Actuated Linear Guidance System Built on Motion Technology®

Motion Technology® Bishop-Wisecarver, manufacturer of the ORIGINAL DualVee® guide wheel, is recognized as the market leader Hardened Track Surface for guide wheel technology. In 1968, Bud Wisecarver invented DualVee Motion Technology® (DMT). Three main components define DMT – the DualVee guide wheel, its mating vee profile track with mounting shoulder, and 90º DualVee Guide Wheel support bushings. DMT is one of the most popular guided motion technologies due to its self-cleaning action and self-aligning track, which result in an overall Double Row Angular Contact Bearing • • Lubed for Life Designed...

Motion Without Limits ® Product Overview LoPro® Linear Motion Systems LoPro linear motion systems are available in four sizes and in belt, lead screw, ball screw and chain driven configurations, as well as un-driven. LoPro provides a tough, cost effective, low friction, low profile modular solution, built to withstand a wide range of operating environments. LoPro is the system of choice for wood, packaging and textile machinery, as well as the clean room or laboratory. LoPro has the lowest profile in the industry, accomplished by mounting two lengths of our hardened steel track to a low profile...

Product Overview Proven Technology DualVee Motion Technology® has been successfully employed in industrial linear motion systems for over 40 years. High Speed Speeds up to 5.5 m/s, and acceleration up to 5 g’s. Tolerant of Contamination and Debris Inherent surface velocity gradient provides a constant sweeping action. Low Profile Sleek, compact design. Low Noise/Low Vibration Reduces noise and vibration recirculating ball designs. Long Stroke Lengths Tracks can be butt-joined to create systems of virtually any length (screw driven system lengths are limited by available screw lengths). Flexibility...
