Kyle Thompson, Global Product Line Manager, Systems at Thomson, explains in the video: "The M75 Movopart belt-driven, prism guided linear unit is ideally suited to applications where shock loads, low noise, wash-down or caustic environment requirements are present. Thomson prism guides can work in multiple wash-down applications like food and beverage, packaging and material handling."

Prism guides offer a cost-efficient, smooth and reliable guiding system. Kyle explains: "Both belt-drives and prism guides can help save costs by requiring minimal maintenance." Thomson prism guides have a self-aligning guide system with shaped polymer bushings running directly on the anodised profile surface.
