Automation – Longstroke Slides PS

Product catalog summary

Product Description
The Longstroke-Slide PS is designed for lifting ranges between 400 to 600 mm, functioning as a simple portal loader with movement to two selectable positions. It features two enclosed rectangular profiles for rigidity, a play-free guide system with rollers and hardened precision round bars, and is driven by a cylinder without a piston rod. Shock absorbers allow for precision adjustment, and end positions can be detected using inductive proximity switches. The unit's dovetail design facilitates easy installation and adjustment.

Applications
The Longstroke-Slide PS can be used as a placement device in portal designs, providing horizontal strokes with a built-on Linear Unit LEP and a Precision Parallel Gripper GPP. It can also function as a transposition unit with two Compact Slides KSD and Dual-Acting Parallel Grippers GPD.

Technical Data/Dimensions
The Longstroke-Slide PS is available in two standard lengths, 400 mm and 600 mm. It includes components such as shock absorbers, exhaust chokes, and retainers for proximity switches. Key specifications include a maximum stroke of 400 or 600 mm, a force of 200 N at 5 bar, and a payload capacity of 8 kg unthrottled or 12 kg throttled. The unit operates at pressures between 3–6 bar with air as the medium, and features hydraulic shock absorbers for end stop absorption. Repeatability is less than 0.01 mm, and the unit is made from aluminum, steel, and plastic.

Additional Information
Accessories and further details can be found on pages 302 and 338. The product comes with a two-year guarantee from the date of delivery, and maintenance involves oiling the rods.

212 > LONGSTROKE-SLIDES PS PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The Longstr o ke-Slide PS serves as the basic element for the liftingrange 400 to 600 mm. It was designed as a simple portal loader with movement to two freely chosen positions.The two enclosed rectangular profiles provide the PS with excellentrigidity. The rollers in the slide and the hardened precision round bars embedded in the portal profile form the guide system which hasbeen set so as to be free of play. >
