Raise Quality And Lower Costs With Uni-Guide

sdf

Rockford, IL - The Uni-guide-formerly Dolphin Guide-has come a long way since its creation in 1995. Armed with a lightweight aluminum structure, versatile applications, and a redesigned production process to lower costs, the PBC Linear Uni-guide provides the perfect solution to many different applications.

Previous costs for the Uni-guide were significantly higher, but due to PBC Linear integrating two new FMS machines which allow for 24/7 production.

Comprised of a simple two piece assembly, the Uni-guide can drop into most applications with easy installation and use. The bottom of the slide is keyed for precision alignment to increase accuracy. The rail and carriage composition is a lightweight anodized aluminum. The carriage is self-lubricating with a patented PBC Linear Frelon GOLD® liner to create an extreme environment-tolerable design and allows particulates to be wiped harmlessly off the shaft.

The greatest feature the Uni-guide offers is its versatility. With a wide range of customizable options, the Uni-guide can be applied to a plethora of industries. Recently unveiled at the IWF show in Atlanta, GA, these customized options include several different locking vices and conveyors. Driven by ball screw, lead screw, or motor, the Uni-guide is a light-weight, low cost linear motion guide with a history of quality performance.
