Linear slides, also called linear-motion bearings or linear guides, enable frictionless and smooth movement along a single axis. Moving components straight along any three-dimensional axes is ...

When developing new processing machines, more and more manufacturers are turning to external procurement of complete assemblies that have already been optimised in terms of efficiency, precision and ...

Extrusion slides are made up of a stack of extrusions that extend by sliding along each other. There are two ways to make this happen: bushings or V-wheels. Bushing slides connect the two slides with ...

Hanover Park, Illinois – NB has a wide selection of miniature linear slide guides. The SEBS series perfectly replaces other standard brands. All-stainless models are ideal for high temperature ...

The Lintech 100 series linear positioning slides maximize performance while minimizing physical size and cost. These linear slides use a low friction, preloaded, recirculating linear ball bearing ...

Wondering what's new in the linear world? The editors of Motion System Design conducted a survey among industry experts to find out. Here are the responses we believe you’ll find most useful When ...

Precise movements are made with precision slides. Reciprocating linear bearing accuracy, the possible runout in any plane, is typically as low as 0.005 in./in. Because linear bearings are only as ...

When determining the proper linear transfer system there are some key factors that will help determine what is appropriate for your specific application. Here are some things that will affect accuracy ...

Engineers and manufacturers are increasingly turning to robots for increased productivity, and key to these engineering marvels are linear guides. Martin Ahner, head of norelem ACADEMY, discusses the ...

Telescopic slides are versatile and make a difference in industry, furniture and many other sectors. However, there are a few things to bear in mind when choosing the right slide, so that they can ...
