It is factory-equipped with a high-resolution, linear secondary encoder. The secondary encoder results in much higher positioning accuracy. With a load capacity of 2500 kg, the MLR-2500 is suitable for many heavy-duty industrial robots in the medium payload range.
The robust construction offers maximum stiffness and is ideal for applications with dynamic forces. The linear unit is made of one piece and is available in a length of 5 m with a travel distance of ±1750 mm. The expandability to any range makes it possible both to set up complete production lines and to process large components such as those found in the aerospace industry. In the MLR-2500 Basic variant, the linear axis is also available without the secondary encoder.
The MLR-2500 is powered by two Siemens gearmotors - as a master-slave version. When positioning, both motors are braced together. As a result, a much higher torsional stiffness is achieved. Dynamic and high-precision applications can thus be easily implemented with little time spent optimizing accuracy. For applications with very high dynamic forces, the MLR-2500 is also available with a gantry drive. In this way, occurring torques can be ideally compensated.
