Used for these applications
![Unique motion Use of example](/motion-design-tech/images/unique/unique.gif)
Ideal for large-size machines such as in food processing or printing.
It enables a flap to move parallel to a body and decreases the space needed to open the door.
By using this mechanism, an open door will not obstruct narrow corridors in a factory where several machines are operating. The wide opening makes it easier to take something in and out.
