Slidekamera X-Slider System

The X-Slider is equipped with a specially designed cart that carries the camera along the track with extreme precision. The cart was designed based on high-quality components. This guarantees excellent smoothness and stability of motion. Three bearing rollers move along a specially designed aluminum rail which allows a maximum payload up to 20kg (8kg when using the included Nitrotech N8). The slider cart is also equipped with a level and a standstill brake, as well as a seamlessly adjustable damping unit. The brake is removable to make way for other accessories instead, for example: the included HDN DC drive.Our X-Slider System includes following options:
