guidelok horizontal | Introduction | Advantages

Openable and swarf-resistant:
E4 e-tubes are enclosed
and easy to fi ll

Upper run support:
intelligent upper run guide with
pivoting roller brackets

Swarf-proof:
minimise wear by
unsupported operation

Safe guidance:
trough channel for
guiding the lower run

Upper run guide for long travels,

unsupported in swarf areas -

guidelok horizontal

®
Especially for long travels on machine tools, when the e-chain would normally need to glide but metallic
swarf is a problem. guidelok horizontal is a cost-eff ective solution.
● Unsupported travel lengths up to 50m are possible
● Swarf cannot get stuck between upper and lower run
● Modular system with few parts (also possible without lateral trough)
● Enormous increase of unsupported lengths for e-chains ®
● Lower push/pull forces (smaller e-chains , unsupported and rollers = energy-effi cient)
®
● Lower cost than most steel chains or gliding systems
● Open guide trough design, swarf can fall through

Typical industries and applications
● Machine tools ● Heavy swarf environments ● Wherever a gliding application is not advisable
