ROLLON Corporation’s Ecoline linear motion products have been designed to fit in applications where quality movement is needed at a low price. The patented design offers a well-protected, smooth slide that is easily and quickly mounted.

Ecoline combines the quality associated with all of ROLLON’s products with the affordability needed in application sectors like industrial protective panels, vehicle slides, and machine tool doors. ECOLINE is the cost-efficient alternative to labor intensive, homemade solutions, cheap bent steel slides, or expensive, over-designed round or profiled shafting.

• The rail, normally mounted to the fixed part of the machine, is a specially designed anodized aluminum extrusion.
• The steel slider body, normally mounted to the moving structure, has six radial ball-bearing “rollers” mounted in such a way as to allow optimal contact on the four internal raceways.
• The linear contact between the rollers and the raceways minimizes wear and maximizes load capacity, assuring a long lifetime.
• The patented design of the two-piece slider allows the cross-mounted rollers to run inside the load-carrying aluminum rail without play. It also allows the fast and simple setting of preload. With the XSP version, the orientation of some of the rollers can even be inverted, allowing the inversion of the preferential load direction.

Keeping in mind the unclean nature of many of Ecoline’s main application sectors, the products were designed to keep damaging dirt and particles out. The contact between the rollers and the raceways occurs inside the specially shaped profile, protected from accidental impacts and from debris and impurities. Longitudinal protective belts, which limit the possible infiltration of dust and dirt along the thin slot where the slider travels, are available as well. When ordered as a complete unit with slider mounted inside the rail, protective techno-polymer end-caps are supplied.
