Gluing device for large LCD glass substrate	Glass substrate cutting operation	Coating device for various small parts	Spraying mobile device
A set of high-speed gluing device for LCD glass substrate is composed of two simultaneous X-axis electric slides, one Y-axis slide and z-axis.	Two X-axis electric slides moving together with one Y-axis slide are combined to form a set of simple glass plate cutting mechanism.	Three single axis electric slides are combined into X-Y-Z mechanism, which can perform point gluing. The operation cost is much cheaper than one gluing machine, and can also be used in gluing operation on the production line.	Use X-Y-Z 3 axis for cleaning or spraying.

What is a Multi-Axis Linear Module?

A Multi-Axis Linear Module is an electromechanical actuator designed to provide linear motion along multiple axes, usually three or more. It is composed of several linear actuators arranged in a specific configuration and connected to a central drive unit. The drive unit provides the power and guidance to the actuators, enabling them to move in various combinations to produce linear motion along several axes. The benefit of this design is that it offers higher load capacity, higher stiffness, and higher precision than traditional linear actuators.

The Advantages of Multi-Axis Linear Modules

Multi-Axis Linear Modules/Multi Axis Linear Manipulators – The Future

Multi Axis Linear Modules are becoming increasingly popular in a variety of applications. As technology continues to improve and costs continue to come down, these modules will become even more widely used in robotic, aerospace, and automotive engineering applications. Additionally, Multi Axis Linear Modules will continue to evolve as manufacturers develop new ways to utilize them more efficiently and effectively.

Linear modules(Multi Axis Linear Manipulators) can be used in a single axis, also can be combined into a rectangular coordinate manipulator in the form of XYZ, and can be combined into different combination forms such as two axes, three axes and four axes. If there is a large load and stroke, gear rack transmission will be selected under normal circumstances.

Multi Axis Linear Manipulators can complete the linear and curvilinear motion of the load through the combination of various units, and the motion control of point and multipoint. It is more sensitive and accurate for the automation of light load. Precise and firm, can be used for single shaft, and can be used for multi shaft combination; Modular application, simple structure, saving mechanical design space, with a variety of installation and connection modes and accessories for design selection, matching with a variety of motors and motor control regulators, multi-point positioning and multi-stage control, and selecting appropriate accessories can improve assembly efficiency, meet different accuracy requirements in design, save time and facilitate maintenance.

As a manipulator in the automation industry, Linear module has a wide range of uses and is suitable for various scenarios. In many cases, the desired automation effect cannot be achieved by moving only one slider. At this time, an extension arm function can be added to the slider, which can turn the linear module into a rectangular coordinate manipulator through the function of control program and motor, Realize the effect of one-step to multi-step motion.

Take single axis linear module as an example. If there are two sliding blocks on the linear module, the first rectangular coordinate manipulator uses the program to control the two sliding blocks to go in different directions. At the same time, install the motor on the sliding block, install the working components on the sliding block, and then the two sliding blocks can work respectively. The second method is to add another module on the slider, that is, the extension arm. The extended module can also move and work like an independent module. By analogy, the linear module can be extended many times for a wider range of automation.
