Rollon is a leading international provider of linear motion solutions, i.e. linear and telescopic guides, actuators and complex gantry systems. The way we work is very simple: we listen to our partners, capture their needs, requirements, challenges and concerns and work closely with them to choose the best solution for their next motion application. The efficiency and performance of each application is always the goal. But what other variables should be taken into consideration so that production efficiency does not overshadow constructive, economic and maintenance efficiency? We have learned to answer these questions and more. Thanks to 45 years of experience in the market, we gained the skills and know-how to pick up on things that an be the key to every designer, but may appear nuances to the unexperienced eye.
Rollon linear rails provide smooth, quiet movement of beds in medical imaging applications and auxiliary motion axes. Accuracy of motion, patient comfort and handling of heavy weights are the pluses of linear motion solutions.
Telescopic Guides
In some industries and applications, the stresses to which a linear motion solution is subjected are enormous. Vibrations, friction, loads to be supported without deforming, are just some of the variables involved that can shorten - even significantly - the life of a linear guide.In the railway...

SAS Automation has developed a new clamp for the adaptive handling of bags of different sizes by implementing the rails by Compact Rail, a solution with a high life cycle, robust and resistant to contamination.
Linear Guides
The palletizing systems typically used in packaging plants put the elements that they are composed of "under pressure": stressful cycles, sometimes even 24 hours a day, are the order of the day and also "challenge" even the most resistant linear handling solutions adopted in the system.Moreover, if...
Linear motion
Manufacturers of packaging line equipment, such as cardboard formers, packers and sealers, tray formers, palletizers and related machines, often choose high-precision linear rails with recirculating ball bearings.
Linear Guides
When it comes to automated technology we often think about robots, self-driving vehicles or complex pick&place systems. Equally important, however, are the smaller, “simpler” structures that must be designed to interface with precisely those more complex solutions. This is the case, for example,...
Linear Guides
When it comes time to choose a linear rail for medium-precision applications, many designers automatically opt for a profiled rail. In doing this, however, they automatically preclude certain types of linear rails which can prove to be much better suited - not to mention less expensive - than the...
Linear Guides
One of the biggest challenges facing industrial motion system designers is misalignment management. Some rail types, typically those with recirculating balls, require a very high degree of precision in installation and assembly, which often requires extra costs to prepare and adjust the support...

Linear products support almost every industry in the world. They work to move items from one place to the next for so many applications. On Line It Up, host Tyler Kern chatted with Forrester Lowrie, Territory Manager at Rollon, about two distinct types of rails.
