Linear Gantry Robot

April 25, 2022
The igus drylin XXL Large DIY 3-axis linear gantry robot is up to 60% more cost effective than other solutions.

The drylin XXL Large DIY 3-axis linear gantry robot is particularly suited for palletizing applications of up to 22 lb. (10 kg). It is cost-effective, easy to implement, and has an action radius of 78.7 x 78.7 x 59.1 in. (2,000 x 2,000 x 1,500 mm).

The user receives the gantry as a DIY kit consisting of two toothed belt axes and a toothed rack cantilever axis with stepper motors; this enables companies to quickly install a pick-and-place 3-axis linear gantry for tasks related to palletizing, sorting, labelling, and quality inspection. Users can assemble the components into a ready-to-use system in just a few hours; there is no need for external help, prior knowledge or lengthy training.

The system requires no maintenance; the linear axes consist of corrosion-free aluminum, and the carriages move via plain bearings made of high-performance iglide plastics. The self-lubricating properties of the igus bearings enable a low-friction, dry operation without external lubricants.

The package also includes a control system, cables, and the igus Robot Control software. The core of the software is a 3D digital twin of the 3-axis linear gantry, which can be used to define movements with just a few clicks.
