- What should you consider when mounting linear guides?Linear guides are designed for applications that require precise motion with high load bearing capacity.However,improper mounting can add unnecessary load,shorten service life,and destroy the inherent travel accuracy of a linear guide system.Understanding and following the three mounting specificatiBall Screw February 24, 2023
- How to avoid ball screw buckling?Determining the buckling load is an important step in ball screw selection.The buckling(compression)load can be easily calculated based on the root diameter of the screw,the overhead length and the end bearing configuration. Where:Fc=maximum compressive load(N)fb =end bearing factord1=root diameterBall Screw February 22, 2023
- What is the difference between plain and rolling linear guide?A linear guide(or linear bearing)is a mechanical element that allows for relative motion between two surfaces,with one surface supporting the other and with minimal friction between the two.There are two basic types of linear guides:plain and rolling element.While their general function is the same,Linear Guideway November 29, 2022
- What may make your ball screw failure?The ball screw must be mounted in such a way as to ensure proper alignment with the guidance system to avoid bending moments and binding during travel.Ball Screw February 20, 2023
- What factors should not be ignored when choosing a linear system?When choosing a linear system,the first application parameters that come to mind are likely to be travel,load and speed.In addition,detailed information on load placement,move profiles and duty cycles are needed to accurately calculate bearing life,which are typical criteria for evaluating a linearBall Screw February 17, 2023
- How to choose linear guide accuracy？When choosing a recirculating linear guide,several criteria need to be specified,including size,preload,and accuracy.Linear Guideway February 10, 2023
- When do you need ball screws?The ball screw contains a screw and a ballnut,the ballnut is fitted with recirculating ball bearings to carry the load.This design minimizes friction and provides high efficiency.The following are four common application standards that require ball screws(in most cases). Many of the advantages thatBall Screw December 16, 2022
- What you need to know about corrosion-resistant linear guideways？Recirculating ball and roller guides are the backbone of many automated processes and machinesLinear Guideway December 26, 2022
- What is cage creep in Cross roller slide?Cross roller guides are non-recirculating linear bearings,the rollers are oriented in a "criss-cross" mode(each roller rotates 90 degrees relative to the one next to it)and move between two parallel guides with V-shaped grooves.Ball Screw February 15, 2023
- How can lead screw backlash be reduced?The reverse clearance is an inherent characteristic of the lead screw assembly due to the sliding motion between the screw and nut.A degree of clearance or "clearance" may be tolerated for some applicationsLead Screw November 11, 2022
