Product Description
HG series guideways can be classified into non-interchangeable and interchangeable types. The sizes are
identical. The only difference between the two types is that the interchangeable type of blocks and rails can be
freely exchanged, and their accuracy can reach up to P class. The model number of HG series contains the size, type, accuracy class, preload class, etc..
Feature of the HG Series Linear Guideway
[1] Self-aligning capability
By design, the circular-arc groove has contact points at 45 degrees. HG series can absorb most installation errors due
to surface irregularities and provide smooth linear motion through the elastic deformation of rolling elements and
the shift of contact points. Self-aligning capability, high accuracy and smooth operation can be obtained with an easy
installation.
(2] Interchangeability
Because of precision dimensional control, the dimensional tolerance of HG series can be kept in a reasonable range,
which means that any blocks and any rails in a specific series can be used together while maintaining dimensional tolerance. And a retainer is added to prevent the balls from falling out when the blocks are removed from the rail.
(3) High rigidity in all four directions
Because of the four-row design, the HG series linear guideway has equal load ratings in the radial, reverse radial
and lateral directions. Furthermore, the circular-arc groove provides a wide-contact width between the balls and the
groove raceway allowing large permissible loads and high rigidity.
