Agathon

Precision Parts for tool-, mold- and mechanical engineering

If you want more than just standard products in terms of standard parts, Agathon is the right
place for you. The name Agathon comes from ancient Greek and means «the good». This
promise results in exceptionally good products « made in Switzerland» of the best material
quality, high surface quality, extremely close tolerances and a long lifespan. When you choose
Agathon standard parts, you choose to be able to work with maximum productivity and efficiency.

Backlash-free, rolling guide and centering systems are at the heart of the product portfolio.
These systems enable highly innovative punching and forming tool concepts, for example for
variant production. This applies in particular to the Mini Fine Centering system, the latest
Agathon development that has conquered the market since 2018

The patented staking and the special shape of the pocket ensure the exact play and the perfect
hold of the rolling elements in the cages of Agathon guiding and centering systems.

If machine construction is your area of expertise, you will also benefit from our rolling pillar
guide and centering systems. With a precise preload, they are backlash-free and almost
indestructible. Due to the tribological advantages of rolling guides over sliding guides, the
efficiency of demanding applications can be significantly increased. Agathon also offers these
products as special designs up to approx. ⌀ 140 mm – including slide guides.
