General info about Hepco Motion Linear systems
Brd. Klee is the official Danish importer and distributor of Hepco Motion's large product range.
Hepco started in 1969 by producing linear rails with 70° edges on which V-bearings run. The revolutionary thing about this type of rail is that it continues to run regardless of dusty and harsh environments, as dust is pushed off the rail and thereby achieves a longer life cycle.
Today, Hepco offers a very broad, high-quality program that few other providers can match. If standard products cannot be used, Hepco offers special solutions.
What is a linaer system?
A linear system is a system that consists of carriages and rails that can be configured to fit the desired application.
Where are linear systemes used?
The products are used where reliable linear propulsion is desired, e.g. in food and pharmaceutical production.
See the various Hepco Motion linear systems below.
Hepco Simple Select
Hepco Simple Select is the easy and safe choice when you want reliable linear propulsion. Hepco Simple Select is offered in four sizes. Supplied complete with carriage and rail - ready for installation. A broad program with many options.
Hepco GV3
Hepco GV3 is Hepco's 3rd generation of the well-known V rail profile and V-bearing program which ensures good and reliable linear propulsion. The design of the V-bearings minimizes stuck dirt and debris in the rail systems and thus minimizes downtime.
Hepco SL2
Hepco SL2 is the stainless counterpart to GV3 rail systems. SL2 can be used where stainless solutions are recommended and where an FDA approved solution is required.
Hepco DualVee
Hepco DualVee is a flexible system consisting of rails, wheels and bushings (eccentric and concentric). Rails are supplied in lengths up to 6096 mm. Carts are customized by the user. Offered in four different sizes in stainless/stainless steel or hardened steel.
Hepco LoPro
Hepco BSP
Hepco BSP are threaded spindles/ball spindles with DIN nuts in three basic types: Fast - standard - small. Lengths up to 3000 mm. Produced according to drawing. Also spindles and nuts in steel and stainless materials.
Hepco SH
Hepco SH are linear vibration dampers and end stops suitable for Hepco linear systems. Prevents damage from moving objects.
Hepco HDS2
Hepco HDS2 are Heavy Duty rail systems - also option for stainless steel. 2 rail sizes with V guides.
With bearings Ø64 to Ø150 mm. V-bearings are very suitable for aggressive environments. Capacity up to 68 kN.
Hepco UtiliTrak
Hepco UtiliTrak is a cost-effective rail system that is easy to mount/install and requires minimal maintenance.
Hepco HLG and MLG
Hepco HLG is a range of recirculating ball guides brings a new dimension to linear motion by offering smooth low friction movement, high rigidity and an excellent load capacity. The range is available in standard sizes and offers the unique bleed lubrication system that enables blocks to be re-greased through the rail, making it easy to set up an automatic lubrication facility.
Blocks have a highly effective sealing arrangement at both ends and along the sides. This prevents serious dirt ingress and enables grease to be retained, where it matters, to lubricate the internal tracks.
For manual applications there is the option of a fitted brake that enables blocks to be firmly locked in position.
The HLG range also includes a miniature series, Hepco MLG that are stainless miniature linear ball guides which work by having the carriage contact the rail via a four-point 45° angle ball contact. It has two return ball races per carriage, which provides very easy movement with low friction over the entire stroke of the carriage. This results in an extremely good carrying capacity in places where space is tight.
Hepco bearings
Hepco's range of extreme temperature and vacuum bearings are suitable for the most challenging environments.
• Suitable for vacuum tasks in industry.
• Works at temperatures between -50 °C and +210 °C.
• Special grease in the bearings for optimal performance during operation in extreme environments.
• Bearing sizes from 18 to 54 mm in diameter.
• All components are made of stainless steel.
• Can be used with Hepco stainless linear products such as Hepco SL2 stainless rails and bearings Hepco PRT2 circular systems.
Hepco MHD
Hepco MHD Track Rollers are specially designed to transport heavy automation equipment, e.g. for moving large robots.
• MHD has an extremely heavy load capacity compared to other linear systems.
• Suitable for automation and robotics where high offset loads are required.
• Designed for long life and durability.
• Gears allow for high power transmission.
• Unlimited length.
• Carriage plates can be used for mounting gearboxes, engines and the like.
• Maintenance free in most applications.
