Food truck with drylin® N

Weatherproof and space-saving

A normal truck was converted into a food truck by Nomes srl. Various products can be offered there such as pizza, hamburgers, ice cream and much more. Sliding and hanging cabinets for selling goods are installed on the ceiling of the vehicle. The drylin N linear system allows the elements to be adjusted variably. Moving a cabinet element to the rear position ensures a perfect view of the rear-view mirror and side window for the driver of the vehicle. The adjustment in the front position, on the other hand, allows the coverage of the driving area during sales times and a significant increase in the display area for the products offered for sale.

Problem

The big challenge was to develop a food truck that can be used outdoors in any weather. It was also important that it was simple and easy to use for the storage and display of the goods for the customer. In order to save space and ensure easy handling, a simple attachment for the ceiling installation was necessary. This meant that the goods in the food truck can be stored in a space-saving manner and at the same time made easily accessible.

Solution

By using drylin® N low-profile guide systems and xiros® ball bearings from igus®, the problems of a food truck that is weatherproof and at the same time simple and easy to handle could be solved efficiently and reliably. The products offer high resistance to weathering effects, easy and smooth movement of the storage racks through ceiling installation, and a space-saving, easily accessible storage of goods. Installation is quick and easy and allows for flexible adaptation to individual needs. Thanks to different sizes and individual configuration options in the online configurator, drylin® N can be optimally adapted to the respective requirements and is completely lubrication-free. Overall, the drylin® N linear guide is characterised by its flat design, reliability and user-friendliness. It offers an efficient, cost-effective solution for the food truck. This makes it an optimal solution for selling food and drinks outdoors.
