Parker’s System 2 utilizes two linear modules in both axes (X & Y). 

​

• The second linear module of the Y-axis is an idler unit which increases load capacity (normal and  moment) and permits longer travel

• Traction force can be improved by linking the second axis (Y) module to the first with a common drive shaft

• The link shaft doubles the potential acceleration of the system

• This system is intended for moderate to heavy loads

 

Parker has simplified sizing and selection, shortened lead times, and reduced costs for users by standardizing on seven configurations of gantry systems.  Longer travels and increased loads are attainable depending upon the combination of parameters.
