Igus Linear Guide Carriage TW-01-20 drylin T Series

Igus DryLin T Series Linear Guide Carriage, 81mm Carriage Length, 7.4kN Static Load Rating - TW-01-20

This linear guide carriage provides guided linear motion for automation and assembly tasks within controlled environments. It is manufactured by Igus and belongs to a dust-lubrication-free family suited to cleanroom and semiconductor conditions. The unit is built for integration where repeatable straight-line movement and a compact carriage design are required.

Features and Benefits:

• Static load capacity 7.4 kN enables high-force support under load
  Aluminium body reduces assembly weight while preserving stiffness
  Compact carriage length delivers space-efficient integration
  63mm carriage width supports stable lateral guidance
  Conforms to cleanroom standards for particle-sensitive operations
  Designed for use in automation systems requiring precise linear travel

Applications

• Suitable for pick-and-place equipment in electronics production
  Ideal for wafer handling and semiconductor transfer systems
  Used for guided axes in automated test rigs and inspection lines

What is the carriage material and how does it affect installation?

The body is made from aluminium, offering a favourable strength-to-weight ratio that eases mounting and reduces inertial loads on drive systems.

Which cleanliness standards does it meet for sensitive environments?

It meets DIN EN ISO 14644-1 and SEMI E78-0998 requirements relevant to cleanroom and semiconductor handling conditions.

What load should I account for when specifying this component?

Design calculations should use the static load rating of 7.4 kN to determine support capacity and safety margins for stationary loads.

How does the carriage size influence machine layout?

The 81mm length and 63mm width give a compact footprint that assists in tight mechanical envelopes while providing lateral stability.
