Five tips when designing your belt conveyor
Deciding how your belt conveyor should be designed can sometimes feel like an overwhelming task. But with our checklist, the job becomes a little easier. We have compiled five important points to consider when designing...
Ball bearings and hardened steel shafts – a flexible linear guide for many types of machines
Ball bearings combined with hardened steel shafts are one of the industry's most proven solutions for linear motion – and the technology is just as relevant today as when it was introduced. The low friction, smooth...
Linear rail guides – dimension correctly
How do I choose the right size for my linear rail system? Choosing a linear guide system that is one or two sizes larger than the actual requirement can sometimes feel like a safe choice. However, with a correctly...
Servo couplings – the key to precision in modern drive systems
A well-chosen servo coupling acts as a precise and yet flexible link that ensures backlash-free torque transmission between motor and load, while compensating for small misalignments. It is crucial for achieving high...
When standard rail guides are not enough – three problem solvers
For very heavy loads, a standard linear rail system may not be sufficient. In such cases, a roller guide can be the right solution for the application. In other situations, factors such as low installation weight and...
Racks & Pinions – smart design for precise and robust movements
Racks and pinions are important components in modern mechanical engineering. They convert rotational motion into linear motion with high precision and strength – a solution used in everything from automation systems to...
The quantum computers of the future take shape – Rollco’s solutions at the Niels Bohr Institute
How do you create stable, flexible, and clean environments for research conducted at temperatures close to absolute zero? At the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen, groundbreaking research in quantum mechanics is...
Streamline warehouse flow with smart linear units
In warehouse and production flows, there are many opportunities to implement automation solutions. By automating sub-processes, you can create a better working environment and more efficient production. We will tell you...
Space-saving solution in storage systems
Corporate real estate costs are a significant part of a company's expenses. In addition, there are also operating expenses such as electricity, lighting and heating, which have increased a lot the last couple of years....
Warehouse automation with vision camera and linear units
Warehouse flows can become more efficient by implementing various automated solutions. One example is vision cameras, which are ideal for combining with one or more linear units. Together, they can automate...
