Function and application

A rotating ball screw converts the rotary movement of a motor into a linear move
ment. The cantilever profile 1 will then move backwards and forwards.
The cantilever profile is mounted on roller bearings and equipped with a guide rail.
The reference position of the cantilever profile can be sensed by means of the inte
grated inductive proximity switch.
The cantilever axis EGSA has been designed for the exact positioning of work loads
at high speeds.
Please note
The EGSA is non−braking: When the input torque is not applied, the cantilever
profile can be moved freely. Generally self−locking of the complete system can
be achieved with motors with an integrated spring−loaded holding brake or with
high self−braking torque (e. g. for vertical operation).
Use motors from Festo

(è catalogue specifications, www.festo.com/catalogue).
You will then be operating two devices which are especially matched to each
other.

Transport and storage

Take into account the weight of the cantilever axis. The EGSA weighs up to 8 kg
S
depending on the design.
Ensure storage conditions as follows:
S
storage times should be kept to a minimum
cool, dry, shaded, corrosion−protected storage locations.
