Linear modules have several names, linear modules, linear motion units, Cartesian coordinate robots, linear slide tables, etc., which are automatic upgrade units following linear guides, ball screw linear drive mechanisms. It can realize the linear and curved movement of the load through the combination of various units, which makes the automation of light loads more flexible and the positioning more accurate.

Linear modules * have been developed and used in Germany for a long time.The market is positioned in photovoltaic equipment, loading and unloading robots, cutting equipment, gluing equipment, and placement equipment.This robot can bring convenience to equipment in this industry. : Single unit has fast movement speed, high repeat positioning accuracy, light body weight, small equipment space and long life. The application range of linear modules has been expanding, and it has spread to the world. The speed of running in our country is faster. In recent years, the development of linear modules has been faster, especially in Shenzhen, which has done a lot, and the quality is also good, which is favored by equipment manufacturers.

The development of linear modules has been widely used in a variety of equipment. It has contributed indispensable contributions to the development of China's equipment manufacturing, reduced dependence on the import of foreign complete sets of equipment, and brought more opportunities for engineers who are keen on equipment research and development and manufacturing. Linear modules are currently commonly used in measurement, laser welding, laser cutting, glue coating machines, spraying machines, punching machines, dispensing machines, small CNC machine tools, engraving and milling machines, sample plotters, cutting machines, transfer machines, Sorting machines, testing machines and applicable education places.

Currently widely used linear modules can be divided into 2 types: timing belt type and ball screw type.

Synchronous belt type linear module is mainly composed of: belt, linear guide, aluminum alloy profile, coupling, motor, photoelectric switch, etc.

Ball screw type linear module is mainly composed of: ball screw, linear guide, aluminum alloy profile, ball screw support, coupling, motor, photoelectric switch, etc.
