Its stage base combines RGS-style screw supports and a <a href="https://www.freerunbearing.com/products/Ball-Bearing/79.html" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 112, 192); text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 112, 192);"><strong>ball bearing</strong></span></a> profile rail for a lower carriage ride (&lt;16 mm), higher speed capability and more efficient, stiffer load support than competitor products.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">In addition, the EGS provides a less complex and up to 50 percent smaller alternative to more traditional belt + gearbox designs. It offers the advantage of an easily integrated “bolt-in” design, which eliminates many facets of a multi-component design, like the need for additional engineering, managing multiple vendors, and integrating a precision assembly.</span></p><p><br/></p>
