Thepayload isoftenonlyasmall part of themoving loadbecause cable chains, guides,workpiece carriersand
motorsalsohave tobemoved. Reducing themoving loads cansignificantly influenceenergy consumption.

The3DgantryEXCH, in contrast
to conventional gantries, is

directions. Thisgreatly reduces
themoving loadand leads to
