With our aluminium extrusions, the maximum length we offer is 4m, but we can join our rails, so we have some applications that are 50m long. That’s one of the great benefits of the drylin® range: because of our gliding system the rails can be joined. Some typical applications include one at a bottling plant – that was about 50m long all joined up. Another application was for the television industry, for the boat race in London. They usually travel along the path to film it, but they were unable to do so this time. They hence used our linear rail to cover the part they could not go along – this was commissioned at 20m long. For the stainless steel shafts, we can supply up to 6m pieces and also join them up for longer applications.
