The Swiss-based SCHNEEBERGER Group supplies leading OEMs in various sectors worldwide with products that notably include linear guideways, profiled guideways, measuring systems, gear racks, slides, positioning systems and mineral casting. Mineral casting in particular is in demand wherever motions need to be both dynamic and very precise, as the material is ideal for base and supporting structures.
Yet these are just the starting point for the smooth, vibration-free and frictionless linear travel that is essential in today’s complex world of mechanical engineering. This applies just as much to applications in measuring and semiconductor technology, the biotech sector and medical technology as it does to the machine tool industry, laser processing and many other industrial sectors. SCHNEEBERGER has long been providing the optimum basis for this with its high-quality MONORAIL guideways. In the run-up to EMO Hannover 2019, the company has now greatly expanded its product range with extremely robust and cost-effective MONORAIL BM profiled guideways. The range of ball-bearing BM carriages, with their new, exceptionally low and short versions, now offers almost double the number of options, thus opening up numerous new areas of application.
