We recognize and appreciate the confidence our customers have placed in our company and we work hard to earn it. Despite its modest price , the BLT86 will provide years of trouble-free service, especially if the simple maintenance is performed. All BLT86s use double ball bearings on the jacking screws. The screws and bearings are lubricated with MoS 2 for low friction and long life.
All parts are field replaceable.
All translators are also available with long strokes, motor drives , linear encoders, tapped flanges and special heights. The BLT86 needs only minimal maintenance. The linear bearings are bronze, and the guide rods need only be kept lightly lubricated and free from dirt, dust and debris. The jacking screws and bearings do, however, need periodic lubrication. As delivered, the jacking screws are coated with baked-on molybdenum disulfide.
