Guideway system monoRoll: Technology, Drive concept and Applications

The new, patent pending monoRoll guideway system is built on the principle of two prismatic V-guide rollers mounted in a compact roller support that glides along a monorail. These V-guide rollers have integrated pre-loaded double-row angular contact ball bearings which are characterized by high load ratings and extreme stiffness. One of the two V-guide rollers is firmly mounted in the roller support (for the forces in the direction of the main load), the other, through an eccentric bolt can be set free of play and pre-tensioned on the monorail. Optionally, wiper units and/or lubrication wiper units can be mounted on the roller support.

monoRoll Type-F and Type-L

The modular series consists of two types.
Type-F is designed as a thrust bearing and bears loads in 4 directions (radial and axial in the direction of the rail).
Type-L is designed as a floating bearing and can bear the same loads as the thrust bearing radial to the rails.

Thanks to the „floating mechanism” integrated in the roller support, movements axial to the rail of +/- 1.5mm can be balanced out force-free without impairing the dynamics, precision and service life of the guide way system. The benefit is that thermal expansions and/or inaccuracies in the basic construction can be directly compensated by the guideway system (e.g. bridges of processing tables or rails directly mounted on blank aluminium beams).
