Rollon, a global leader in linear motion solutions, has unveiled the HGT-MG telescopic rail, an enhancement of its established HGT product line. This new model incorporates a redesigned ball cage and synchronization magnets, offering improved load management, smoother extension, and enhanced durability.
The HGT-MG is offered in sizes 60 and 80, featuring a newly engineered ball cage with a reduced pitch and end blocks containing internal magnets. These magnets synchronize the elements during extension, significantly reducing the force required to operate the rail. This advancement facilitates easier operation and supports higher loads. Additionally, the damped end stroke ensures quieter performance and contributes to extended service life by reducing mechanical stress.
“The introduction of the HGT-MG telescopic rail allows users to combine heavy load capacity with optimized handling and smooth motion,” stated Andrea Tosi, VP Technology at Rollon. “It also highlights our commitment to developing solutions that meet technical specifications and address operational challenges in industrial environments.”
HGT telescopic rails are designed for demanding applications, featuring a robust structure with a double T-shaped intermediate element and two corresponding sliders. Available in steel and zinc electroplated with thick-film passivation, the rails comply with REACH and RoHS standards. A stainless-steel version is also available, ensuring adaptability to various industrial conditions.
Engineered for strength and reliability, HGT rails find applications across construction, machinery, automotive, and rail vehicle systems. Their design supports high loads while maintaining rigidity and low deflection, offering a space-saving solution where compact dimensions are essential.
The HGT-MG version introduces a synchronized movement system, requiring less force to operate while maintaining stability under heavy loads. This makes the rail particularly effective in contexts where smooth handling and precision are critical. The inclusion of a damped end stroke reduces noise and vibration, contributing to quieter performance and a longer service life by lowering mechanical stress.
For applications in harsh or corrosive environments, alternative surface treatments are available, extending reliability and performance to a broader range of industrial conditions. With the launch of the HGT-MG, Rollon strengthens its portfolio of high-performance linear motion solutions, reaffirming its mission to deliver reliable, application-driven products that evolve with modern automation requirements.
