Increase Robot Coverage with Linear Motion Systems

Learn how guide wheel-based Robot Transfer Units expand the working envelope of robots, improve flexibility, and support long-distance robotic motion in demanding industrial environments.
June 1, 2026

Robotic automation continues to reshape modern manufacturing, but fixed robot installations can limit flexibility, reach, and efficiency. LoPro® Robot Transfer Units (RTUs) address these challenges by adding a 7th axis of motion, enabling robots to travel long distances with precision and reliability. This expanded range of motion allows robots to handle larger workpieces, service multiple stations, and improve productivity across the factory floor.
