This series features low-cost carriages for curved rails, injection-moulded from regranulated high-performance plastic, offering a sustainable and cost-effective solution for adjustment and positioning tasks.

Designed for simplicity and efficiency, the Drylin econ series addresses the need for economical solutions in a variety of applications, such as adjusting displays in retail environments or fine-tuning grippers in vending machines. Unlike traditional steel or aluminium alternatives, the new polymer carriages cost less than 20 per cent of their milled counterparts, resulting in substantial cost savings for design engineers.
