Linear-Rail System Has Self-Adjusting Mechanism The SBI range from Jena Tec offers low noise and high rigidity, coupled with a smooth movement and self-adjusting mechanism. According to the company, an increase of load-carrying capacities of up to 40 per cent can be achieved compared to standard block and rail systems. Compared to conventional linear rail cross sections, the SBI range is approximately 10 per cent lower, with a wider through section of nearly 20 per cent, Jena said. Its improved lower cross-sectional centre point offers greater structural rigidity, improved straightness during manufacturing and straightness in application. Heat treated to HRC60, the SBI range is highly stable, while shorter cross-sectional areas mean grinding time and plastic deformation are reduced. Linear blocks are constructed from a hardened-steel rigid structure with the same lower cross-section centre as the rail and slightly longer block length meaning a greater number of balls with a smooth ...

Dimplex unveils the DTR70, the latest addition to the Daytona range of towel rails, incorporating Drytech technology to offer rapid warm-up. The patented Drytech construction allows the heat to be uniformly distributed over the whole of the towel rail's surface, eliminating heat stratification and cold spots. The DTR70 has an output of 70W, but Dimplex says this economical rating feels like more as the Drytech technology gives more heat, more quickly, and from a lower output than wet-filled competitors. The DTR70 is available in a choice of chrome or cool white finishes. The DTR70 is compatible with Dimplex radio frequency controllers and towel rail energy regulators for maximum efficiency. As the design weighs 2.4 kg, installation is straightforward anywhere with a power supply. There is no risk of leakage or rusting as the range is liquid-free. The towel rail is IPX4 rated as splashproof for bathroom use and features a thermal cutout. The DTR70 offers independent operation f...
