I saw IGUS 3 years ago at the IWF (google that one) show in Atlanta. Made sense since woodworking creates fine dust and oil/grease don't mix and sooner more than later it seems will failure happen. Thompson, and a couple of other linear people were represented there.
I was creating some woodworking appliances that were put on hold due to the arrival of an infant and the IGUS people were very helpful..and generous. The guy I talked to sent me an 18" sample of the double rail with four bearings and a couple of other linear types.
Again, my applications were put on hold but I still have the rail. Someone else suggested double rails side by side and that is my intention on the z axis. I need to order 4 more bearings.
Call IGUS and go to their site. there are single rails which can be mounted in any configuration of pairs. there are also thompson type blocks for the Drylin bearings. |
