Trolleys and wheels for V-SLOT profiles

Trolleys for V-SLOT profiles are used in machines that use linear motion, such as 3D printers and CNC milling machines. They move by means of rollers placed in grooves of V-SLOT profiles. The plates of the carriages are equipped with special holes allowing the installation of a toothed belt responsible for the drive. Pre-punched holes in the surface of the plate reduce the weight of the carriage and enable installation of the components to be set in motion.

Wheels for V-SLOT profiles are an indispensable element in systems based on aluminium profiles where movement is required, particularly in 3D printers and CNC milling machines. The shape of the rollers is adapted to the shape of the groove type V, V-SLOT. The inside of the roller is usually equipped with a bearing which is to ensure the lowest possible resistance in linear motion.
