"Moving slider" installation
In a "moving slider" installation, the stator is fixed and the slider is the moving part.
The load, borne by a linear guide, is attached directly to the end of the slider. In order to compensate for
misalignment, spherical axial bearings consisting of spherical washers and conical seats (see the section
Slider mounting kits) are used to connect to the load. The mounting kit of slider and an oversized hole for the
screw make it possible to adjust a radial and angle offset.

"Moving stator" installation
In "moving stator" applications, the slider is fixed and the stator is the moving part.
The load is attached to the stator, which is mounted on a linear guide. In order to avoid an overconstrained
bearing mount and compensate for alignment errors, the slider may be mounted on one end in a fixed
bearing with a spherical axial bearing. On the opposite end, the slider is mounted in a floating bearing.
Mounting kits are available for mounting the slider (see the section Slider mounting kits).
