Trapezoidal Profile
A velocity vs time profile that is characterized by total move time spit evenly for acceleration, deceleration and velocity.

Tube Deflection
Due to the nature of loads and aluminum extrusions tube deflection will occur if cylinder (linear slide) is supported only on the ends without tube supports at recommended intervals along length of cylinder.
