Our linear technology solutions help you:
Reduce commissioning time
Fast commissioning through plug & produce and zero programming.
Commission a system in only a few minutes by using drag & drop without any programming knowledge. This is made possible with our pre-installed software incorporating automatic hardware configuration, automatic parameterisation of the motion control and initialisation of the entire system.
Maximise efficiency
Achieve maximum productivity through the highest system availability. Intelligent components help reduce machine downtime and ensure that maintenance activities take place only when necessary.
The condition of the components is displayed via various key parameters and the diagnostics function retrieves system parameters, status reports and statistics continuously. This allows maintenance tasks to be scheduled accordingly.
Save time and costs
Our engineering tools and configurators help you select and configure the correct product for your requirements – with only a few clicks. This makes CAD data available for various 2D and 3D systems.
Our eTools simplify and speed up the dimensioning and product-finding processes. A seamless tool chain guides you purposefully through the digital selection process, shortening your time-to-market.
