Narrow-width, long-stroke modules (generally referring to linear motion modules that maintain a
narrow width while possessing a long stroke) are widely used in various high-precision, high-speed
industrial fields. Their core advantage lies in effectively addressing the pain points of traditional
modules in space-constrained scenarios, namely insufficient precision and speed.
Core Advantages and Technical Features
These modules typically possess the following characteristics, making them stand out in specific appli
cations:
High Precision and High Speed: For example, some linear motor modules can achieve operating speeds
up to 5 m/s and a repeatability of ±1 μm. Other linear motor modules can even achieve a maximum
repeatability of ±0.002 mm and a maximum speed of 4 m/s.
Compact Structure and Long Stroke: Taking a module as an example, it adopts an ultra-narrow, compact
design of 100 mm, but the length of a single base can reach 3040 mm, making it ideal for applications
with limited space but requiring long strokes. Synchronous belt slide modules have an effective stroke
range from 1 mm to 6000 mm, offering extremely high adaptability.
High Stability and Long Lifespan: High-quality components (such as high-precision ball screws and
guide rails) and precision manufacturing processes ensure stability. For example, Dingge's DGE-60-EG
slide module has a service life of 3-8 years under normal operating conditions. Good sealing design
(such as a labyrinth structure and stainless steel dustproof device) also effectively extends the module's
lifespan in harsh environments.
Main Application Industries: Based on the above characteristics, narrow-width, long-stroke modules are
mainly used in industries with extremely high motion control requirements:
3C Electronics Industry: Such as auxiliary material placement for camera modules and fingerprint
modules, SMT pick-and-place machines, PCB board dispensing and bonding, etc. These scenarios are
usually space-constrained and have stringent requirements for precision and speed.
Semiconductor and LCD Panel Manufacturing: Ultra-high precision and long-stroke stable motion con
trol are required in wafer handling, photolithography, and glass substrate processing.
New Energy and Precision Machining: In fields such as lithium batteries, photovoltaics, laser cutting, and
marking, the high speed and high precision of the module can significantly improve production efficien
cy. Other demanding fields, including automotive manufacturing, experimental equipment, and packag
ing and transportation, are also increasingly using these modules to enhance equipment performance.
In summary, narrow-width, long-stroke modules, with their high precision, high speed, compact structu
re, long stroke, and high stability, have become key components in modern high-end manufacturing
equipment, particularly suitable for scenarios with limited space but requiring precise, high-speed, and
long-distance linear motion.
