The new SCHNEEBERGER ball screws (SBS) are impressive due to their precision and efficiency, which the ground and hardened ball contact surfaces are primarily responsible for. The SBS are therefore equally suitable for use at high and low speeds as well as oscillating short stroke movements. This makes them particularly attractive for demanding applications in machine tools as well as measuring and testing technology. More

When space constraints and performance are required for distance measurement, MONORAIL AMS is the answer. SCHNEEBERGER integrates a measuring head and scale onto its MONORAIL profile linear guideways. In brief: Integrated AMS distance measuring systems from SCHNEEBERGER are machine-compatible with integrated distance measuring systems in ready-to-install quality, suitable for a wide range of applications in mechanical engineering and automation. MONORAIL carriages are equipped as standard with twin-lipped cross wipers on the ends and top and bottom longitudinal wipers. Together with additional sealing of the gaps between the front plate and the steel body, these provide an exceptionally efficient sealing system. The ingress of dirt is therefore effectively prevented and lubrication losses are reduced to a minimum, which results in a significant increase in service life. The maximum one-piece profile rail length for all AMS distance measuring systems is 6 meters. For the analog…

Whether 80 grams light or 30 tons heavy: SCHNEEBERGER Mineralgusstechnik products offer unbeatable customer benefits. For many years, mineral casting, a "modern material", has represented an alternative to parts made from grey cast iron or steel and is nowadays the superior technology for a vast number of applications. Mineral casting has made new, innovative applications possible in electronics and in the medical devices sector. It is also the technology of the future - CO2 savings per ton of mineral casting are an incredible 1.4 tons of CO2 in comparison to grey cast iron/steel. This is testimony of our goals within our environmental agenda. SCHNEEBERGER Mineragusstechnik saved 15,000 tons of CO2 in 2018 – to the benefit of us all. SCHNEEBERGER Mineralgusstechnik is one of the world's leading manufacturers of mineral casting. It offers innovative and high-precision mineral casting solutions while also making significant contributions to the "Total Cost of Ownership" (TCO) of…

The standard length of a gear rack is usually 1000 mm. During assembly, these are installed one after the other. Gear racks from SCHNEEBERGER, on the other hand, are available in lengths of up to 3000 mm (2000 mm for Q5). This inevitably leads to tolerances that are reflected in the form of a pitch error, which in turn leads to increased wear. With increasing axle length and the associated increasing number of gear racks to be installed, this error becomes even greater. The main benefit is Fewer gear racks have to be installed per machine axis. This reduces installation time. By reducing the number of gear racks required, the pitch error is minimized, thus increasing the service life. The price per meter of gear racks decreases with increasing length. This allows our customers to save money. Furthermore, SCHNEEBERGER gear racks feature the option of any desired cross-section with different types of attachments, entirely according to the customer's requirements. The excellent…

As part of its strategic development, the Business Unit Systems has established the company “SCHNEEBERGER Precision Motion Systems (Shenzhen)”. With the establishment of the new technology center for systems in Shenzhen with development, production, sales and service, SCHNEEBERGER will be closer to its Asian customers and thus be able to serve them even better with high-precision single and multi-axis systems. Stefan Hantke (CEO SCHNEEBERGER Group): «With the new location in Shenzhen we are consistently following our new strategic direction in Asia / Pacific and can support our customers very quickly and flexibly”. Michael Dvorak (President and General Manager SCHNEEBERGER AG Lineartechnik, Switzerland): “There is hardly a better time to go to Asia with our high-end products. The local development and production following the Swiss SCHNEEBERGER standards support our demanding customers in the region”. Dr. Javier de Oñate (Vice President and Business Unit Manager Systems): “With…

As part of the further expansion of the SCHNEEBERGER Group, an additional site was founded in Poland. The new company SCHNEEBERGER Components Poland (SPO) officially started on November 19, 2020 and has already commenced operations, producing precision parts for the entire Group. This means that the production footprint defined as part of the long-term strategy development is being consistently implemented and further developed. Stefan Hantke (CEO SCHNEEBERGER Group): "With this measure, we have once again ensured that we actively support the growth of our customers in the long term. We are very pleased that we were able to win Mr. Boguslaw Czarkowski as Managing Director for this new company, a very experienced linear technology specialist with pronounced production expertise." Would you like to learn more? Then contact us. We look forward to hearing from you and working with you to develop the best solutions for you.  

The precision and robustness of the MINISCALE PLUS optical distance measuring system is impressive. The product was developed for tight spaces as well as high speeds and increases in speed in the work process in conjunction with  high measuring accuracy. It is used in different high-tech sectors, such as in various medical technology and biotechnology applications. The MINISCALE PLUS is based on the MINIRAIL profile linear guideway and combines the characteristics of a linear encoder with those of a miniature profile linear guideway. The innovative embedding of ball recirculation in the carriage allows speeds of up to 5 m/s and increases of speed of up to 300 m/s2. With the combination of an integrated MINISCALE PLUS distance measuring system, the “Guide” and “Measurement” functions are offered on a single rail. MINISCALE PLUS therefore makes a significant contribution to a reduced TCO (total cost of ownership), as only one component needs to be ordered, stored, installed and…

SCHNEEBERGER is always ready to help when the know-how for developing a positioning system is not available to the customer, when such a development lies outside their core competency or when in-house development is not possible due to capacity restraints. Customers thus benefit from SCHNEEBERGER’S experience and expertise as a designer and developer of positioning systems for a wide variety of applications in the semiconductor industry, in medical technology and biotechnology, in the optics industry and in microscopy. SCHNEEBERGER’S systems are fundamentally developed and manufactured together with and for our customers. They are the epitome of extremely accurate and reliable linear technology for high-end machines and devices. Positioning accuracy, speed, vacuum suitability and the perfect fine-tuning of all individual components are part of the axiomatic setup.  This is how, for example, the depicted Open Frame XY positioning system was created. Our customer wanted a completely…
