LINEAR TECHNOLOGY SCHNEEBERGER Linear technology High precision, innovative and reliable Company brochure

THE RECIPE FOR SUCCESS ALWAYS ONE STEP AHEAD Since 1923 The foundations of current worldwide linear motion technology were laid by the first linear guideways developed by SCHNEEBERGER, which has been making linear motion products for more than 90 years ago. In 1945 SCHNEEBERGER once again innovated linear technology, this time with the invention of the linear roller guide. We have developed upon this effective principle of linear guidance significantly in the last several years thanks to the integrated cage controls. The same concepts that resulted in our success still apply today:...

CORE COMPETENCES THE FOUNDATION QUALITY ADVICE AND GUARANTEED SUPPLY LINES How does SCHNEEBERGER manage to engage its customers, and enthuse them again and again, technologically and economically? Let’s take a closer look at our core competencies and our most important process phases. Phase 1: Consulting Every day, we see new applications and develop creative inear l technology solutions for a multitude of projects. We offer this wealth of experience back to our customers. The earlier we are involved in the planning phase of a new product, the more successful we are in integrating...

Phase 4: Logistics Reliability of supply is key to our customers, especially those in strongly cyclical market environments. We strive to take this into account as much as possible through stability – tability in production, in planning and in quality. Our sos phisticated logistical processes ensure precise and reliable deliveries when assembling customer products. Phase 5: Support When we work well together during consulting and conception, during production and logistics, then you will hardly need our support. That said, SCHNEEBERGER quality also includes flawless customer service, with...

Cross rollers Gear racks Micro frictionless tables Distance measuring systems THE ENTIRE SPECTRUM FROM STANDARD COMPONENTS TO COMPLETE SYSTEMS In addition to standard components, SCHNEEBERGER m anufactures complete systems, often consisting of a range of SCHNEEBERGER components. When we build complete systems, our customers benefit from our expertise in developing and producing components. Only because we manufacture these components ourselves are we in a position to perfect them for use alongside each other. And conversely; because we also build complete systems, we know the requirements...

Profiled guideways Positioning systems Mineral casting 3. Our final assembly machine structures At the customer's request, we assemble the standard c omponents or the highly integrated positioning systems right onto the substructure. Because we manufacture the m ineral casting ourselves, we are able to adapt final assembly m achine structures perfectly to the kinematic specifications. chine tool users throughout the world benefit from the high level of performance, productivity and long-term precision of AM ball screws. Their advantageous structural design and 100% quality control in...

APPLICATION EXAMPLE FORMULA-S ENHANCED LIFESPAN FOR MACHINES AND FOR PEOPLE Wherever equipment and machines must perform precise motions at high speeds, the linear guideway with integrated FORMULA-S cage control create the necessary conditions. FORMULA-S guarantees that the cage, which is supported by rolling elements, is always guided steadily in the center of two rails. Linear guideways play a vital role in medical echnology. t P recise motion is essential for meaningful tomography i mages, X-ray images or tissue samples, because it leads to more effective diagnoses. FORMULA-S is,...

APPLICATION EXAMPLE MINIATURE GUIDEWAYS WHAT WOULD THE SMARTPHONE BE WITHOUT SCHNEEBERGER? HIGHLY PRECISE LINEAR TECHNOLOGY MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO MINIATURIZE ELECTRONICS Without highly integrated electronic components, our everyday life would be inconceivable. They represent the heart of our smart phones, our navigation systems, and the reader d evices for credit cards, to name a few. The MINISCALE and MSQscale miniature guideways even have an integrated optical distance measuring system that combines the dual functions of guiding and measuring with the smallest footprint! The development of...

APPLICATION EXAMPLE - CUSTOMIZED GUIDEWAYS AND GEAR RACKS ON TO NEW SHORES SCHNEEBERGER INVOLVED IN CLIMATE MISSIONS IN ANTARCTICA Wherever large ships and, in particular, their drive systems, are built, our linear technologies are making a decisive ontribution. c Large multifunctional long bed lathes can be used to turn, mill, grind or even repair huge crankshafts or drive shafts, over a stroke of 40 meters and with minimal tolerance. For these and similar applications, such as when manufacturing rotor heads or wind turbines for power engineering, we provide custom guideways and gear...

APPLICATION EXAMPLE - MINERAL CASTING IN ONE CAST IMPRESSIVE BENEFITS FOR THE OPTICS INDUSTRY Anyone processing optical components and surfaces, such as industrial optics or lenses, cannot compromise in terms of surface quality, precision, and productivity; primarily because consumers’ eyesight depends on their work, and also because the optical industry is extremely competitive. High-performance machines create significantly more than 100 eyeglass lenses per hour in reproducible quality. To realize this high machine dynamism and the required product geometry with the greatest possible...

APPLICATION EXAMPLE POSITIONING - SYSTEM FOR THE SMALLEST SYRINGES IN THE WORLD NANO-SYRINGES REVOLUTIONIZE THE TOP LABORATORIES IN INDUSTRY AND RESEARCH. ALSO THANKS TO SCHNEEBERGER The smallest syringes in the world consist of structures and canals which are only a few nanometers in size. Those unique nano-instruments are embedded into a complete system. By moving the tips with the greatest precision and in consideration of the force, they provide previously unknown possibilities and applications in the top laboratories of universities and industrial companies. The next generation of this...
