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.
Linear Guides
As companies strive to move goods rapidly, accurately and efficiently, they’re breaking with conventional distribution methods and investing in automated storage and retrieval systems for their operations. These new, automated systems include shuttles that pick and place products, stacker cranes...
Linear Guides
Deciding the ideal linear guide for your application involves carefully assessing the application from every angle. Parameters such as load, dynamics, precision and environment are important in determining the choice of technological equipment.

Industrial automation is no longer either an opinion or an option. It’s a fact. As a concrete part of business, it increases complexity for industrial designers and planners commissioned to design new solutions that can improve processes and make them more productive, efficient, and effective.
Telescopic Guides
Types of extraction, size, low degree of bending, high load capacities, resistance to shocks and vibrations: these are often the primary criteria guiding a designer in their choice of a telescopic rail for an application.
Linear Guides
When you want a linear guide to move a heavy load in a demanding application, you usually have one choice: a heavy-duty profiled guide and its associated misalignment issues.
Higher load requirements often mean the more compliant guides that find good use in medium-precision applications are...
Linear motion
When designing and configuring an automated warehouse, you want to keep the system as light and compact as possible. Depending on the size of your load, there are two common types of automated warehouses: In lighter applications, aluminum structures can handle loads up to 100 kilograms, while steel...
Linear Actuators
A linear actuator is a self-supporting structural system capable of transforming a circular motion generated by a motor into a linear motion along an axis. Helping to produce movements such as the pushing, pulling, raising, lowering or inclination of a load.
The most common use of actuators...

There’s no disputing that automation technology has changed the face of industrial operations. Nowhere is this more evident than spot welding, assembly and material handling where six-axis articulated arm robots perform complex tasks with high precision.
While these and other industries rely on...
Linear Actuators
The task of selecting, sizing and applying linear actuators involves many variables, from stroke length and duty cycle to precision and accuracy requirements. Ultimately, matching the right actuator to the intended application requires a close look at all of the specifications involved and then...
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...
