Linear Guides Application and Characteristics

Date:2024-04-02 

​​Linear guides can be divided into three types: roller linear guides, cylindrical linear guides, and ball linear guides. The former two are fast and have slightly lower accuracy, while the latter are slower and have higher accuracy. Linear guide rails, also known as linear rails, slide rails, linear guide rails, and linear slide rails, are used in linear reciprocating motion situations. They have a higher rated load than linear bearings. They can also bear a certain torque and can achieve high performance under high loads. Precision linear motion. In mainland China, it is called linear guide rail, while in Taiwan, it is generally called linear guide rail or linear slide rail.

Linear guides are used in linear reciprocating motion situations. They have a higher rated load than linear bearings. They can also bear a certain torque and can achieve high-precision linear motion under high loads. Linear guide is a kind of rolling guide. It uses steel balls to perform an infinite rolling cycle between the slider and the guide rail, allowing the load platform to easily move linearly with high precision along the guide rail. Its friction coefficient can be reduced to that of traditional sliding guides. 1/50, enabling it to easily achieve μm-level positioning accuracy. The final unit design between the slider and the guide rail allows the linear guide rail to simultaneously bear loads in all directions, including up, down, left and right. The patented return system and simplified structural design allow the linear guide rail to move more smoothly and with less noise.
When load or preload is applied, the steel balls are in two-point contact. Since the micro-slip is very small, the balls can run smoothly. Since the guide rail has a curvature radius of 52-53%, it can withstand large static loads. The structure of the guide rail is an ideal two-point contact, which can provide sufficient preload and therefore has high rigidity. The special sealing design prevents dust from entering and prevents oil leakage, extending the service life.
