SCHNEEBERGER gear racks - Special is our standard!
The standard length of a gear rack is usually 1000 mm. During assembly, these are installed one after the other. 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. Gear racks from SCHNEEBERGER, on the other hand, are available in lengths of up to 3000 mm (2000 mm for Q5). 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.
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 performance – and technical superiority – of SCHNEEBERGER gear racks are due to careful manufacturing, the…
Whether the load is 80 grams or 30 tons, 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 and 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…
Miniature guideway with integrated distance measuring system – all-in-one
The MINIRAIL profile linear guideway with the MINISCALE PLUS integrated distance measuring system impresses with its precision and robust design. This product was developed for high speeds and accelerations in the work process and is used in a variety of high-tech sectors.
MINISCALE PLUS is based on the time-tested MINIRAIL miniature guideway. The innovative embedding of ball recirculation in the carriage allows speeds of up to 5 m/s and accelerations of up to 300 m/s2. Thanks to a combination with the integrated MINISCALE PLUS distance measuring system, the "Guide" and "Measure" functions can be ideally linked to each other in a compact manner.
As the MINISCALE PLUS measuring system is integrated into the SCHNEEBERGER MINIRAIL miniature guideway, no applications are needed for separate, additional distance measuring systems. The design is considerably simplified with fewer components. There is also less space required, allowing for a more compact design. Since MINISCALE PLUS is also…

SCHNEEBERGER MINISLIDE MSQscale - A resolution of 0.1 µm
MINISLIDE MSQscale is the tested and proven miniature guideway from SCHNEEBERGER that is equipped with an integrated and innovative distance measuring system. The system combines the functions of guiding and measuring in a single step for maximum precision and reliability. The optical incremental measuring system offers an impressive resolution of 0.1 µm. MINISLIDE MSQscale also features a ready-to-install, compact and robust design for simple and quick installation on the customer side.
Thanks to its unique, robust design, the MINISLIDE MSQ is particularly suitable for applications with high speeds and acceleration. The cage control, which is directly integrated in rail and carriage, keeps the cage in position at all times, enabling speeds of up to 3 m/s and accelerations of up to 300 m/s2. Thanks to the small diameter of its rolling elements, the MINISLIDE MSQ is also particularly suitable for applications with very small strokes.
MINISLIDE MSQ has a unique circular arch profile…
SCHNEEBERGER Recirculating units - Unlimited stroke with linear motion
Recirculating units support high-precision, rigid and compact structures with unlimited travel. They are used as standard with linear guideways of type R or RD and offer a high level of accuracy and rigidity with an unlimited stroke. Applications for normal working environments, cleanrooms, or in a vacuum. Suitable sizes and versions for small to heavy loads with the possibility to even correct minor angular errors.
SCHNEEBERGER recirculating units are available in sizes 1-12 and come in various lengths. Types SK and SKD (with damping elements from size 6) are suitable for small to medium loads.
