Bosch Rexroth ctrlX FLOW
Bosch Rexroth ctrlX FLOW comprises the FLOW HS linear motion system, with speeds up to 5 m/s and acceleration up to 10 g, and the FLOW 6D planar system with contactless movers in six degrees of freedom.
ctrlX FLOW has two members. FLOW HS is a linear track for speed: up to 5 m/s and 10 g, with 2.5 kg per mover or 5 kg per group, and a product gap of 40 mm. Electronics are built into the segments, so no control cabinet is needed, and a U-shaped design keeps speed through curves. FLOW 6D is a planar system whose movers float on permanent magnets. It stands out for a floating height of up to 20 mm, several times that of comparable systems, 10 degrees of tilt in every direction and unlimited rotation, and it works horizontally, vertically or overhead. Movers have wireless power and data and land safely on a power cut.
