VERSATILE. SCALABLE. SIMPLE.
The MGS-R5D Screw-Z is a vertical motion gantry system designed for precise lifting and positioning in industrial automation applications. It features a compact screw-driven Z-axis mounted to a rigid aluminum beam, delivering smooth and controlled vertical travel. The system supports a variety of motor mounting options and includes integrated cable management for efficient installation. Built with durable components, the MGS-R5D Screw-Z provides consistent performance and low-maintenance operation in high-duty cycle environments.
Each X-Z system can be supplied with T-slot sensors, gearboxes, or motor mounting adaptors upon request. All X-Z systems include cable track; the standard size can be found in the Product Specification download document. Motor sizing information is also available in the same document.
