Hygienic linear motors
23 December 2014
Nutritious snacks provider, Graze, customises each customer's boxes based on their ratings and preferences and optimises the freshness of each ingredient used, necessitating the use of cutting-edge technology.

The solution came in the form of Dunkermotoren’s Hygienic XHA motor. Dunkermotoren’s engineers worked closely with Graze’s machine designers to produce an XXY gantry formation using three XHA38 series tubular linear motors.
By mounting the linear motors as actuators to utilise the integrated field-replaceable polymer lubrication free slide bearings, it was possible to push the dosing head through an infinite series of positions.
