Our maintenance-free and lubrication-free linear guide systems function smoothly in dry operation and are therefore robust against external influences.Thanks to the materials used and the special design, they also operate particularly quietly. The service life can be conveniently calculated in just a few steps.Thanks to the individual selection of high-quality components, each linear system can be customised to meet specific requirements.Switching to a sliding guide system can not only reduce ongoing operating costs, but also enable significant technical improvements that contribute to a smooth operation and an extended service life.

Why choose drylin linear systems?

Robust

drylin linear guides withstand high temperatures, strong vibrations and more.

Dirt-resistant

Even in the presence of sand, chips and dust, drylin linear guides can be used.

Corrosion-free

Corrosion-free and media-resistant for applications under water.

Quiet

Approximately four times quieter than corresponding linear bearings made of metal.

Lightweight

Up to 75% lighter thanks to high-performance polymers.

Hygienic

All systems run without external lubrication and are therefore extremely clean.

drylin linear technology test laboratory

Due to the use of sliding elements made of high-performance polymers, drylin linear technology is especially wear-resistant, quiet, dirt-resistant, suitable for high temperatures and works without additional lubrication. So that we can guarantee all these specifications, our products are tested extensively and under realistic conditions in our 3,800m² test lab. Every year, we conduct over 135 trillion test movements to tailor our products to your requirements.

The concept of linear plain bearings differs from linear bearings with recirculating balls in the type of movement. Plain bearings do not roll, they slide. The bearing elements are not separated from each other by rolling steel balls, but slide directly on the rail or shaft without a rolling element.
