Acorn's Linear and Automation Services provide a wide range of benefits, from enhanced precision and efficiency to cost savings and improved safety. By partnering with Acorn, businesses can optimise their operations, reduce downtime, and achieve greater productivity and reliability. Whether you need custom solutions or expert support, Acorn is well-equipped to meet your linear and automation needs.
ACORN hold a core range of Linear guide Rails in standard and corrosion resistant options from several manufacturers which we can cut and supply to your specification within a very short leadtime. We also have the facility to end grind the rails for overlength applications that require butt jointed rails.
Linear bushings need to run on precision hardened and ground shafts for optimal life and system accuracy. ACORN hold stock lengths of precision shaft ready to cut down and supply within very short leadtimes.
Acorn can offer fully machined and tailored ballscrew and precision shaft assemblies to your specification
Linear guide and rail systems are often supplied as matched sets and here at ACORN we can select and supply the optimal items to kit and assemble together for your machine set or build requirement.
Old or worn Linear Actuators and ballscrews can be repaired saving the cost of a new unit as well as raw materials and energy. Ballscrews can have several ball tracks with only one being used at a time so re-fitting the nut to an unused track can return the screw to an “as new” condition.
ACORN can support the repair and refurbishment of current and old or obsolete units to ensure your products give maximum performance for as long as possible.
The right components are key to the optimal performance of your automation system but the layout, distribution of forces and orientation of the load bearing elements also play a huge part. Some small adjustments to the layout or position of loads may give you the opportunity to downsize resulting in cost and weight savings as well as keeping your system as compact as possible.
ACORN can offer a full Linear guide and Drive review to help you optimise your system and achieve the maximum performance with the most cost effective components in a compact arrangement.
A suitably specified and correctly installed Automation system will give you a long service life with high performance and reliability, modern automation components offer extended service intervals which when followed will maximise the system life reducing the chances of any unplanned downtime, production losses and emergency repair costs. For systems that have seen a failure ACORN’s experts can help diagnose the route cause and offer advise and suggestions on corrective actions to avoid any repeat problems.
