RK products are recognized throughout the industry for their outstanding quality and reliability. However, not every application requires the maximum premium performance of our proven RK MonoLine and RK DuoLine series. That’s exactly why we developed the RK EcoLine Z80: a cost-effective, robust, and practical solution for standard automation applications.
By intelligently focusing on key functional features, the RK EcoLine offers the quality you’ve come to expect from RK at a highly attractive price-performance ratio.
One key detail that keeps the assembly particularly compact: The tensioning mechanism is integrated directly into the guide profile. This allows for quick and easy retensioning of the timing belt directly on the profile, without unnecessarily increasing the size of the assembly on the guide carriage.
Brochure RK EcoLineA key advantage of the RK EcoLine Z 80 is its selectable guide system. Tailor the linear unit precisely to your requirements in terms of robustness, dynamics, and environmental conditions.

To ensure particularly efficient procurement, standard lengths of 500, 600, 800, 1,000, and 1,500 mm are available. These offer cost savings and faster delivery times compared to custom-configured lengths—a factor that is particularly important during project planning and the procurement process.
To ensure that your linear unit can be seamlessly integrated into your system right away, RK Rose+Krieger offers an exclusive service for proper motor sizing.
Based on your specific application data, such as:
• Load and mounting orientation
• Desired travel speed
• Acceleration values
...our experts will reliably determine the required torque, the optimal speed, and the external mass inertia for you.
