en.Wedoany.com Reported - Linear motion solutions provider Rollon has launched the HVC-MG and H1C-MG telescopic rails. The new models achieve sequential extension of rail elements through integrated magnets, enhancing load management, motion smoothness, and durability under harsh operating conditions.
The MG versions are available for HVC in sizes 54 and 68, and for H1C in size 68. The ball retainers have been redesigned with reduced ball pitch, combined with end blocks featuring built-in magnets. The reduced ball pitch increases the number of balls within the same retainer length, thereby improving load capacity without altering overall dimensions. The built-in magnets provide a defined motion trajectory for the rail elements during extension, making movement more controllable and reducing the force required to open the rails. This combination enhances overall ergonomics while handling higher loads. Additionally, optimized load distribution helps reduce raceway stress, extending service life and ensuring more consistent long-term performance.
Andrea Tosi, Vice President of Technology at Rollon, stated that after successfully applying this technology to the HGT series, it has now been expanded to other telescopic rail series. The integrated magnets achieve an ideal combination of high load capacity and smooth, controlled motion. This development reflects the company's commitment to designing solutions that address the engineering challenges customers face in real-world operations.
The HVC and H1C telescopic rails are full-extension and over-extension solutions, respectively, designed to maximize accessibility while minimizing space requirements. All rails and sliders are made of steel and are zinc-plated, complying with REACH and RoHS standards. Additional surface treatments are available to enhance resistance in harsh environments, and HVC sliders can also be supplied in stainless steel for corrosion protection.
Designed for high rigidity and low deformation, HVC and H1C rails are widely used in fields such as construction and industrial machinery. Their characteristics are particularly suitable for the railway industry, which demands high reliability and service life. Typical applications include the extraction of battery compartments and other onboard equipment requiring easy access and reliable structural support. In railway applications, components must support operators in safely and ergonomically accessing equipment during maintenance, while withstanding environmental factors such as shock, vibration, moisture, and contaminants. Smooth motion is not only about usability but also involves safety and operational efficiency.
Andrea Tosi noted that the MG versions directly meet these needs by improving motion control and reducing operating force, even under heavy loads.
The HVC-MG and H1C-MG will be exhibited for the first time at the Timken Group booth (Hall 21, Booth 560) at InnoTrans in Berlin (held from September 22 to 25).
