Most industrial applications’ performance depends on the linear guide as one of the most fundamental frameworks of several industrial applications. Engineers know the importance of superior and ...

Unlike conventional ball or roller-based linear guides, hydrostatic guidance systems eliminate all metal-to-metal contact. The guide carriages move on a thin cushion of high-pressure fluid, which ...

Low-friction, high-stiffness ball guides support on one rail (top) or two (bottom). The trade-offs for this performance are higher cost and more noise. The shortest path between two points is a ...

The Mini-Plane Rail linear guide system is claimed to be the industry's first miniature monorail to incorporate the self-lubricating bearing materials FrelonGOLD and FrelonJ. They are available in two ...

For fast cleaning, igus has developed a linear guide in hygienic design with an FDA-compliant and lubrication-free linear carriage. (Source: igus GmbH) A self-draining design, iglide high-performance ...

These guide systems are made for high speed and low cost. The Speed Demon OSG type and Speed Demon SG type systems run up to 10m per second (32.8 ft/sec), accelerate at up to 50 m/sec squared, and ...

Essentially, a guide wheel is a ball bearing that has a special shaped outer race. The inner and outer races of ball bearings are a framework with a groove for the balls to rest in. Burke explained ...

MOTION CONTROL: The word ‘hybrid’ is used in engineering to describe a system where two technologies are combined together. igus ® has now achieved this with a completely new type of cost-effective ...
