When is LS Link Compact the right solution? When cost-effectiveness matters.
In the past, cost-effectiveness and stable, reproducible automation processes in linear transfer systems seemed incompatible. With LS Link Compact, you can now have both.
LS Link Compact combines efficiency, reproducibility, and reliability. Discover the benefits in a personal consultation/meeting.
How does LS Link Compact reduce system complexity in linear transport systems?
- LS Link Compact operates quickly and efficiently: up to 60 cycles/min., movement times of less than 0.3 s with stroke lengths of up to 200 mm, and positioning accuracy of ± 0.1 mm.
- Each chain link of the LS Link Compact precision link conveyor system can absorb process forces of up to 50 N.
- Each chain link supports workpiece loads of up to 1.5 kg.
How easy is it to integrate the LS Link Compact precision link conveyor system?
- Plug & Produce: easy integration into assembly or packaging systems.
- Commissioning time is reduced through a control package for the customer’s PLC.
- A servo motor, precision cycloidal gearbox, and robust profile rail system ensure reliable operation.
How flexible is the modularly adaptable LS Link Compact precision link conveyor system?
- The precision chain link length is 100 mm with a maximum overall length of 8 m.
- LS Link Compact requires little installation space, features low system mass, and offers a scalable structure for flexible line concepts.
- Options such as a base frame, control cabinet, or other adaptations form an integrable subsystem.

Application example
From material flow to process logic. How does modular inline automation become scalable after injection molding?
It is not the material flow that determines the performance of a system, but the way processes are structured, timed, and linked together. The LS Link Compact precision link conveyor system takes on the structuring function within Lenkering GmbH’s modular automation solution, SGM EcoLine Plus.
What is the challenge in the market?
Material flow without structure.
Parts are automatically removed after injection molding, but they are not processed in a fully integrated way throughout the process. This creates a continuous material flow – but no clear, cycle-based process logic.
- Handling effort is high.
- Scalability is limited.
What is the key challenge?
From transfer point to process system.
The challenge in flexible injection molding automation does not lie in individual automated process steps, but in the consistent structuring of downstream processes.
- Simple conveyor technology is too inaccurate.
- Complex transfer systems are too expensive.
What contribution does WEISS make?
The enabler: LS Link Compact
The foundation of this approach is continuous, cycle-based part guidance. LS Link Compact does more than transport parts. It serves as the structural backbone of the automation system.
- Part positioning remains stable.
- Processes become reproducible.
What does the solution look like?
Modular platform instead of a stand-alone solution.
With SGM EcoLine Plus, Lenkering GmbH approaches injection molding automation in a modular way: as a flexible inline automation solution that can be used independently of individual products or injection molding machines.
- The solution is adaptable and scalable.
- Adjustments are possible without complex modifications.
What does this mean in day-to-day operations?LS Link Compact transforms a conveyor line into a scalable process platform.
- BENEFITS FOR MACHINE BUILDERS:
scalable, efficient, predictable - BENEFITS FOR PLANT OPERATORS:
stable, flexible, economical
It is not the material flow that matters, but the process structure.
