Festo introduces the ELGA-TB, the company’s next generation belt drive. In comparison to the series it replaces, the ELGA-TB features improvements in feed forces, payload, and list price. The ELGA-TB is available in three sizes and two styles of guides to accommodate a wide range of application requirements.
The ELGA-TB-RF uses roller bearing guides, making it the ideal rugged and built-to-last solution for dynamic, long-stroke applications where high speeds, feed forces, and accelerations are required. The ELGA-TB-G uses a plain bearing guide for applications with small or externally-guided loads.
The ELGA-TB-RF is rated at speeds up to 33 feet/second (10 meters/second) and acceleration of up to 164 feet/second2 (50 meters/second2). The maintenance interval for is rated at 393 million inches (10 million meters) traveled. Repeatability is rated at up to + .003 inches (+ 0.08 mm). Working stroke for the new series ranges from 1.97 inches to 28 feet (50 mm to 8.5 meters). Feed force ranges from 350 to up to 1,300 N.
A corrosion resistant cover strip provides protection for belt and bearings in dirty environments. A magnetic attachment for the cover strip ensures protection when the belt drive is inverted.
Versatile motor attachment
The new series has flexible motor attachments – the motor can be mounted at four different positions and motor position can be changed at any time. The drive is compatible with all common stepper and servo motors.
