HepcoMotion

Hepco’s DLS Belt Driven Linear Actuator will save you hours in design and specifying time. The system comprises of a belt-driven linear actuator, AC motor/ inverter package and a range of compact planetary gearboxes for use with servomotors. Options include a cantilever axis with lightweight beam, plus couplings and connecting shafts for actuators used in parallel.

• Actuators in any length to 8m as standard, and even longer on application.
• Hardened and precision ground linear slide.
• Double row cap sealed bearings for long system life and low maintenance.
• Polyurethane steel-reinforced belt for minimum stretch and high speed capability.
• Quiet, trouble free operation from proven V Guide bearing technology.
• T-nut slots on beam and end boxes allow simple attachment of clamps and switches.
• Removable carriage for secondary machining.
• AC Motor and controller for simple positioning to suit most applicati

The DTS+ is suitable for applications with high loads, a vertical orientation, or where the free space inside the track circuit is required to integrate additional equipment.

The DTS+ system incorporates key features of Hepco’s PRT track system and original DTS, combining them with a high load capacity connection for carriages to the drive belt. The carriages will not disengage from the belt, allowing transmission of higher driving forces compared to the original DTS system. Whilst the original DTS will often be the right choice for many applications, the DTS+ is suitable for applications with high loads, a vertical orientation, or where the free space inside the track circuit is required to integrate additional equipment.

• High strength belt connections allow applications with high speed or high load to be accommodated
• Specially-designed belt-fixing mechanisms connect carriages to the drive belt and do not disengage
• Benefits from low maintenance V guide technology
• Wide choice of system sizes Including 25-351, 44-468, 44-612 and 76-799
• Tracks can incorporate multi carriages that can be locked at workstations for accurate assembly or positioning operations
• Easily incorporated into a multi-function machine as a transfer or positioning system
• Track slides and end segments are fitted to bespoke aluminium sections, the whole assembly can be mounted to your own installation

The DTS2 Driven Track System has been developed for high-speed and dynamic applications.

The DTS2 High Speed Track System has been developed for high-speed applications. The use of a scroll drive allows rapid indexing to be achieved with superior positional accuracy without the risk of carriage disengagement. The track system is available with three sizes of slide section (25mm, 44mm and 76mm).

• DTS2 linked carriages can accept high driving forces.
• Consistent speed of carriages all around the track enables smooth continuous motion to be achieved.
• Higher accelerations can be achieved leading to faster cycle times.
• Available in stainless steel.
• The DTS2 track is configurable in to any shape made from straight and curved sections.

GFX 1-Trak Lite System Composition

GFX 1-Trak Lite is a spacer slide version of Hepco’s 1-Trak guidance system,  including  a  patented  curved  track  form,  providing  the  optimum mover path for 180° motor modules. The track system is  mounted  on  an  aluminium  baseplate  along  with  a  set of motor support brackets, or can be supplied as  a  kit  of  parts  for  custom  installation.  Its  length  is  only  limited  by  the  number  of  motors  and  movers  supported  by  a  Beckhoff  control  system.  Please  see  page  7  for  information  on  these limitations
