Abstract

A rodless cylinder and an external yoke which slides thereover are mounted in a relatively rigid generally tubular support that has a guide rail mounted thereon with a bearing slide mounted for sliding movement over the guide rail and the bearing slide has a work performing tool mounted thereon. The bearing slide is coupled to the external yoke for movement therewith and substantially all torques generated by forces on the work performing tool are absorbed by the bearing slide, the guide rail and the relatively rigid generally tubular support.
