About ERO-Führungen
ERO-Führungen is a family-owned company in the Black Forest with over 60 years of experience in linear technology. At its headquarters in Unadingen, guide rails (cross-roller, sliding and needle-roller guides), profile rail guides, slide guides, linear axes, rotary tables, precision lift tables, adjustable slides, goniometer tables as well as mechanical and motorized assemblies are designed and manufactured – mechanically or motorized, linear or rotary. Thanks to a high depth of manufacturing at the site, customer-specific solutions such as special dimensions and individual drilling patterns can be implemented from a quantity of 1. Production is primarily in tool steel and grey cast iron EN-GJS-400-15; guide rails are ground as matched sets. The product range is combined into a wide variety of assemblies via the ERO modular system and is used, among other things, in machine tools, robotics, metrology, aerospace and the semiconductor industry.
