ABSTRACT:
A linear drive mechanism includes a cylindrical hollow housing within which a movable body is mounted for guided collinear movement by drive mechanism including a cable drum that is driven by a drive device having an output shaft, characterized by the provision of a slip clutch between the drive output shaft and the cable drum in order to avoid damage to the drive of the body in the event of a collision between the body and the workpiece in the direction of travel of the body. The drive mechanism may be used for the low-wear and play-free driving of, for example, the connecting head of a laser machining system for material processing.
