2D gantries are ideal for automation tasks in which a tool uses the item Automation System to help it travel to various points in a single plane. These two-axis solutions are used to print or inspect surfaces, for example. This often means tools such as (push-)buttons and sensors need to be moved over large distances. The particularly long Synchroniser Shafts from the item Automation System and the rigid support profiles ensure 2D gantries can have a very wide working area.
