GDL-F Series – Aluminium Roller Guide

The GDL-F Series mechanical aluminium roller guides are designed for precise, smooth, and quiet linear motion in advanced industrial automation systems. Made from lightweight aluminium components, the GDL-F system reduces moving mass, enabling higher travel speeds, improved energy efficiency, and lower actuation forces.

These roller guides can carry high loads in all directions, thanks to the optimised orientation of the rollers. Whether under radial or axial load, the system maintains stability and accuracy. The GDL-F Series is available in various configurations, including double-rail with roller cassettes, single-rail with paired roller shoes, and special bespoke versions to suit a wide range of applications.

With smooth running characteristics and virtually maintenance-free operation, GDL-F guides can reach travel speeds of up to 10 m/s. The aluminium profile provides a strong yet lightweight structure, making the system ideal for dynamic applications where weight and speed are crucial. The design allows for integration into both compact and large-scale systems, offering engineers flexibility and efficiency.
