Linear technology

mk linear technology is a collection of linear guides designed to meet specific requirements, including gliding assemblies, track roller assemblies and recirculating ball bearing guides. They are used, for example, in handling systems such as multi-axis gantry systems or for adjusting machine frames.

Whether you need manual adjusting units or driven linear modules with a timing belt for handling applications, we are happy to provide comprehensive advice on how you can combine precise movement with the smoothest possible transition thanks to optimal linear guidance.

mk’s linear technology components are fully compatible with mk profile technology. Installing linear guides allows you to quickly and easily implement linear movements into your machine frames. This method reduces the materials required for the solution, since a separate support structure for the linear motion is not required.
