Technical Information

Features of LM Guide

  • Large permissible load and high rigidity
  • Accuracy averaging effect by absorbing mounting surface error
  • Ideal four raceway, circular-arc groove, two point contact structure
  • Superb error-absorbing capability with the DF design
  • Low friction coefficient
  • Wide array of options (QZ lubricator, Laminated contact scraper LaCS, etc.)

As a result, the following features are achieved:

  • Easy maintenance
  • Improved productivity of the machine
  • Substantial energy savings
  • Low total cost
  • Higher accuracy of the machine
  • Higher efficiency in machine design

Types of LM Guide

Caged Ball LM Guide Full-Ball LM Guide LM Guide Models for Special Environments
The ball cage eliminates mutual friction between the balls, resulting in low noise, long-term maintenance-free operation, and high-speed performance Suitable for various applications, from miniature to large types for machine tools, and from straight to curved guides. For using in special environments with high temperature or requiring high corrosion resistance.

Caged Roller LM Guide Full-Roller LM Guide LM Guide with Linear Encoder
An ultra-high rigidity roller guide that uses roller cages to allow low friction, smooth motion, and long-term maintenance-free operation The roller-type LM Guide is a highly rigid LM Guide because it uses rollers as the rolling elements. The global standard Model SHS and THK linear encoder are integrated into one compact unit.
