Festo Linear Guide ELFC-KF-32-400, ELFC

Festo ELFC Series Linear Guide, 400mm Rail Length, 32mm Rail Width - ELFC-KF-32-400, Numeric Part Number: 8062799

This linear guide provides guided linear motion for precision positioning and load transfer in automated assemblies. Designed for industrial environments, it combines a robust steel rail with a Compact profile to support linear actuation and sliding carriage systems used in electrical, electronic and mechanical equipment.

Features & Benefits

• 32mm rail width gives stable lateral load handling
  Steel construction improves wear resistance for long service
  400mm rail length supports extended stroke arrangements
  Precision rail geometry enhances repeatable motion accuracy

**Applications**

• Suitable for pick-and-place modules in automation cells
  Ideal for gantry and XY table slide systems
  Used with actuator assemblies in electrical testing rigs
  Can be used for linear positioning in PCB handling equipment

What material properties affect durability in corrosive production zones?

The rail is manufactured from steel which provides mechanical strength
surface treatments and environmental controls are advised for corrosion-prone sites.

How does rail width influence system stiffness and alignment?

A 32mm cross-section increases lateral stiffness and reduces deflection under side loads, aiding accurate alignment of sliding carriages.

What mounting considerations should be observed for integration?

Ensure flat, rigid mounting surfaces and use appropriate fastener spacing along the 400mm length to maintain parallelism and minimise induced stresses.

How does environmental regulation status impact installation in regulated facilities?

The product meets RoHS requirements, meaning it limits specified restricted substances and aligns with facility policies that mandate reduced hazardous material content.
