Linear motion

Linear equipment is present in many industries:

food, plastic injection, precision production equipment, medical, etc.
Whether it is linear guides, ball screws (or rollers) or even cylinders, the linear component must be able to offer optimal rigidity, precision and durability.

Towards which criterion (s) to tip the balance? Should we move towards a standard or custom product?
ALPHATEAM assists you throughout this selection process.

Partnerships with industry leaders

The installation of linear equipment requires significant resources, so it is essential not to make mistakes during the selection or the design phase. ALPHATEAM has chosen to collaborate with NSK, the world's leading manufacturer of screw-ball bearings (in terms of production volume) and one of the world leaders in linear guides. It is also one of the few to offer a complete engineering service covering the study, selection and configuration of complex assemblies.

ther pioneers in the sector with which ALPHATEAM works: HIWIN and THK, (both with a production site in Germany) have to their credit numerous technological developments, which have enabled performance levels to be achieved above the sector average.
