MRS Sigma: The Next Generation Miniature Linear Guide
Rockford, IL – January 14, 2009
PBC Linear has expanded the Mini-Rail™ product line by adding the MRS Sigma miniature linear
guides. Providing smooth and quiet operation, the self lubricating sigma shaped Simplicity® polymer
inserts provide years of trouble free service without the need of seals and wipers.
Hostile environments, clean rooms, and
wash-down resistance make MRS Sigma an
ideal solution for medical, packaging and
semiconductor applications. The
LazerStraight™ sigma shaped ceramic
coated aluminum alloy rail is available to 5 meters and the die-cast streamlined carriage provide a low
cost, simple, green alternative to conventional ball and roller type linear guides and bearings. The flat
bottomed rail and a keyed carriage—available in three colors—help to make installation simple while
the sigma shape improves accuracy and prevents carriage/rail drift; providing extra stability.
MRS Sigma is another example of PBC Linear applying innovative thinking to develop low cost
solutions to a multitude of different linear motion applications. For more information on MRS Sigma
