MGS-R5D (Belt Z)

The MGS-R5D is a compact cartesian gantry system designed for precise linear motion in industrial automation environments. Featuring a belt-driven configuration with a rigid aluminum extrusion, it delivers smooth, accurate travel along each axis. The system supports multiple motor and gearbox mounting options, allowing for flexible integration into custom multi-axis assemblies. Built with durable materials, the MGS-R5D offers consistent performance, minimal maintenance, and reliability in high-speed, light-to-medium duty applications.

  • X-Z configuration.
  • Connection Hardware and Torque Tube included with the Assembly.
  • User defined Strokes for Each Axis.
  • Center Drive Right Angle Reducer offered upon request.
  • Rotary (Theta) Axis offered upon request.
  • Mounting flexibility in either horizontal, or vertical orientation.

Product Notes

Each X-Z system can be supplied with T-slot sensors, gearboxes, or motor mounting adaptors upon request.
