Linear Bearing Block
1. Profile Rail Linear Guides (Square Type)
These blocks are designed to run on profiled "square" rails. They utilize multiple rows of recirculating balls to provide high rigidity and load capacity in all directions.
- Key Features: High positional accuracy and high load-carrying capacity; available in standard, long, and slim versions.
- Applications: CNC machinery, industrial robotics, and high-precision measuring equipment.
- Benefit: Provides exceptional smoothness and minimal friction, even under heavy Moment Loads.
2. Round Shaft Linear Bushing Blocks (SBR/SC Series)
These consist of a standard linear ball bushing housed in an aluminum block. They are designed for use with precision round shafts.
- Key Features: Available in Closed Type (for end-supported shafts) and Open Type (SBR series, for continuously supported rails to prevent shaft deflection).
- Applications: 3D printers, DIY automation, and simple sliding mechanisms in textile machinery.
- Benefit: Economical and easy to mount thanks to the pre-drilled aluminum housing.
3. Miniature Linear Guides
Engineered for applications where space is extremely limited but high precision is still required.
- Key Features: Compact, lightweight design usually made from stainless steel for corrosion resistance.
- Applications: Semiconductor manufacturing, medical devices, and laboratory automation.
- Benefit: Offers high-speed performance and high durability in a small footprint.
4. Self-Lubricating Linear Plain Blocks
Instead of recirculating balls, these blocks use high-performance polymer liners (like PTFE or Frelon).
- Key Features: No moving parts; capable of operating without external oil or grease.
- Applications: Food processing, pharmaceutical packaging, and environments with high dust or debris.
- Benefit: Maintenance-free and highly resistant to contamination and shock loads.
