up to 900° and more
With the Multi Rotation Module (MRM) you can implement larger angles of rotation of 900°
and more. Thanks to stackable add-on modules the angle of rotation can be extended virtually
indefi nitely. One layer for rotations up to 540°, two layers for 900°, larger angles of rotation
are possible with more layers. The rotation and add-on modules are ideally suited for rotary
Typical application areas: movements with high fi ll weights and limited space.

● Compact design enables the operation even in tight spaces, extendable "at will"
