Linear Motion Technology

We supply a comprehensive range of linear motion technology, from individual components like ball screws and linear bushings through to complete gantry systems and electromechanical cylinders. We also offer in-house cut-to-size and machining, which means faster lead times and components that arrive ready to install.

Contact Hyspecs

When precise positioning and repeatable movement are critical to your process, the quality of your linear motion components determines everything. A poorly specified component means positional drift, premature wear and unplanned downtime. The right component, correctly matched to the load and duty cycle, runs reliably for years.

Linear Modules

Our linear module range covers compact, standard and small module types from size 40 to size 200. These are engineered components with tight tolerances, designed for applications where speed, accuracy and repeatability all matter.

  • Configurable lengths up to 12,000mm
  • Drive options: precision ball screw and toothed belt
  • Variable carriage length
  • Complete turnkey solutions available

Electromechanical Cylinders

The electromechanical cylinder is the clean, precise alternative to a hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder where accurate positioning and high force are both required. No hydraulic fluid, no compressor, no pressure losses. Just direct, controlled linear force.

These cylinders are built for heavy-duty work. Compact construction, high-precision planetary screw drive, multiple mounting positions and the option to supply with or without a servo motor.

  • Available sizes: 32 to 220mm
  • Configurable stroke lengths up to 1,500mm
  • Axial force up to 150 kN dynamic
  • Multiple mounting positions and elements
  • Supplied with or without servo motor

Ball Screws & Planetary Screw Assemblies

Precision ball screw and planetary screw assemblies for applications requiring high accuracy, high load capacity and low maintenance. Multiple nut types available in various diameter ranges and accuracy classes.

  • Accuracy classes: T3, T5, T7, T9
  • Dynamic load ratings up to 544 kN
  • Static load ratings up to 1,496 kN
  • Precision-rolled (economical) and ground options
  • Numerous nut types: self-aligning, closed, open, heavy-load, corrosion-resistant

Linear Bushings & Shafts

A comprehensive range of linear bushings and shaft combinations for applications requiring smooth, reliable linear movement under demanding conditions, including heavy contamination and high thermal loads. Multiple nut types and various shaft sizes available.

Multi-Axis Gantry Robots

For pick and place, palletising, sorting, stacking, dispensing and other multi-axis handling tasks, our gantry robot systems provide a complete, configurable solution. The built-in software package can reduce commissioning time by up to 80% compared to custom-built systems.

  • Cartesian multi-axis system for positioning and handling tasks
  • Ready-to-install, scalable positioning
  • HTML5-based HMI control
  • Available with or without servo drives and motors
  • Applications: pick and place, positioning, palletising, feeding, stacking, dispensing, sorting, mounting, screwing
  • Complete turnkey solutions available

Rail and Runner Blocks

Ball rail and roller rail systems for the most demanding precision and rigidity requirements in linear motion applications. Available in a wide range of sizes with high load capacities and multiple material and finish options.

  • Ball rail and roller rail systems, including miniature ball rail
  • Sizes: 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 45, 55, 65, 85, 100 and 125
  • Steel, corrosion-resistant steel, matte silver and block hard chrome-plated options
  • Maximum one-rail length: 6,000mm
  • Cut to customer specifications (chamfered or butt-ground)
  • Accessories: seals, scraping plates, lubrication units, grease nipples

In-House Cut-to-Size & Machining

We cut and machine linear motion components in-house. This removes the lead time and coordination involved in sending components out for preparation. You receive parts that are ready to install when they arrive. For projects with tight timelines, this is a practical advantage that off-the-shelf suppliers can't match.
