Splindle axes EGC-BS-KF, with recirculating ball bearing guide

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document outlines the technical specifications and features of the Festo Spindle Axes EGC-BS-KF, which include a recirculating ball bearing guide. These axes are part of Festo's core product range, designed for a variety of automation tasks with high availability and quick shipping.
Key Features: The spindle axes are noted for their high rigidity and load capacity, thanks to optimized cross-section profiles. They offer superior speed, acceleration, and torque resistance, with versatile options in spindle pitches and sizes. Space-saving position sensing is achieved via proximity switches.
Technical Specifications: Available in sizes 70 to 185, with stroke lengths from 50 to 3000 mm, these axes feature a recirculating ball bearing guide and can be mounted in any position. The maximum feed force ranges from 400 N to 3000 N, with a repetition accuracy of ±0.02 mm.
Variants and Accessories: The document lists accessories and mounting options such as emergency buffers, centring pins, clamping units, switch lugs, sensor brackets, and proximity switches. It also details motor options and mounting kits for axial and parallel configurations.
Applications: Suitable for linear gantries and cantilever axes, these spindle axes are designed for environments requiring high precision and load capacity.
Ordering Information: A comprehensive guide to ordering is provided, including type codes and customization options like spindle pitch, guide type, and additional slides.
