PBC Linear Expands MTB Series Product Line With The MTB 105 High-Speed Belt-Driven Linear Actuator

Engineered with precision and versatility in mind, the MTB 105 is specifically designed to integrate into multi-axis medium- to large-sized Cartesian Gantry systems, providing robust support for medium to high payloads.

Roscoe, Illinois, USA - June 3, 2024 - PBC Linear, a Pacific Bearing Company and a global leader in linear motion solutions, is pleased to announce it has expanded its MTB Series of Belt-Driven Linear Actuators line with the MTB 105.


Engineered with precision and versatility in mind, the MTB 105 is specifically designed to integrate into multi-axis medium- to large-sized Cartesian Gantry systems, providing robust support for medium to high payloads. Its fully enclosed design ensures reliability even in contaminant-prone environments, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. Precision extrusions for each aluminum actuator body ensure all sides and bottom surfaces are flat and perpendicular giving accurate installations.

Key features of the MTB 105 High-Speed Belt-Driven Linear Actuator include:
• Fully enclosed actuator with stainless steel magnetically coupled band strip seal to assist in keeping actuator enclosed while carriage is in motion.
• High acceleration, speed, and rigidity.
• Long travel length.
• Low friction, noise, and vibration.
• Anodized aluminum corrosion-resistant body and carriage.
• Urethane steel corded reinforced belt to handle high loads.
• Adjustable belt tension.
• T-slots for mounting and sensor mounting.
• Various female and male input drive interface options are offered.
"We are excited to introduce the MTB 105 High-Speed Belt-Driven Linear Actuator as the latest addition to our MTB Series product line," said David Dieter, President at PBC Linear. "This actuator shows our commitment to pushing the boundaries of linear motion technology, enabling our customers to achieve new levels of efficiency and performance in their applications."

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
