An Macron integrator partner had to provide a large scale cartesian gantry system with X-axis travel of 44 feet and Y-axis travel of 21 feet with a heavy payload capacity of 330 pounds. Whereas there was some deflection allowance in the Y-axis, the design would not allow the use of steel to cover the span. Due to overall system height constraints, creating an aluminum truss work to accommodate the span was a problem.
Our high speed, high performance X/Y H-Bot linear robot is constructed of a simple design, a single belt driving both axes.
Watch how this gantry is being used to press flexible rubber spline into a special semi-automatic machine made for manufacturing screen windows and doors.
