Rails and carriers (19mm)
Description
Our 19mm wide rails are precision-machined in aluminium for greater straightness and accuracy than extruded sections. They can be screwed down to breadboards, optical tables or any flat surface using M6 screws as listed. Fixing slots allow rails to be fixed at an angle to the rows of holes on breadboards etc.
Each rail (except 75mm) has an M4 tapped hole in one end and a clearance hole and slot for an M4 screw (included) at the other, allowing rails to be joined together to make greater lengths. (75mm rails have tapped holes in both ends.) These holes can also be used to attach rails endwise to other surfaces for more complex arrangements.

Direct-mount carriers give a stable and compact system, suitable for production as well as prototyping. This is feasible because of our standardised axis heights - see below: Standard axis heights |


Our direct mount carrier has a loose M6 screw for fixing component holders direct to the top surface, a very compact arrangement particularly useful for holders with standard axis heights (see technical tab). An adaptor kit (screw and washer) is listed for holders with M4 thread. This carrier also has M2 holes to mount our 25 x 25mm translation stages.
Postholder carriers accept post-mounted component holders, allowing greater flexibility in component axis heights.
The narrow carrier can be butted against another carrier to mark its position, allowing it to be removed and replaced in exactly the same position. It accepts component holders via a direct-mount base such as 04 BH 06.
