New Guides Products

Passive Light Guides feature software-optimized design.

Designed with ray-trace software to ensure minimal light loss and consistent performance, Light Pipes carry light from board-mounted SMT or leaded LEDs to desired location. LED can be mounted according to dictates of circuit board layout, while light itself can appear in location, size, and/or shape that best suits design of product. Light Pipes include 50+ devices in 4 general categories: Light...

Cable Guide enables dynamic cable reorientation.

RoundAbout(TM) cable directing device gives draw wire transducers flexibility for connecting displacement cable to applications. Two precision-positioned pulleys provide 2 dimensions of tracking, while third dimension is provided by bearing-mount housing with cable-actuated rotation mechanism. Product eliminates requirements for flexible mounting bases or re-location of position transducer. It...

Double Rail Motion Systems feature modular design.

Series ERL double rail guides consist of 2 precision ground, 12 mm steel shafts with support blocks set at increments of 100 mm. Series ERN consists of two 12 mm steel shafts supported uniformly throughout range of travel on anodized aluminum support profiles. Series ERW is spaced 100 mm apart for torsional stability. Extended travel ER slides feature 2 parallel, hardened and ground 12 mm...

Guideways meet various application challenges.

Special Linear Motion Components consist of guideways for special machines, modified standard guideways from single pieces to series volumes, replacement guideways for obsolete machines, and customized solutions. Single rail lengths area available up to 2,000 mm with max width of 150 mm and max height of 50 mm. Rails can be through-hardened and re-ground or inductive-hardened. Coating options for...

Digital Color Line Guide uses optoelectronic technologies.

Utilizing 4 ultra-high intensity LED light sources, AccuBeam-® II recognizes and guides any printed line or pattern regardless of color or surrounding graphics. To compensate for different reflective qualities of matte, glossy, or holographic webs, unit provides 3 projection ports. A 20 MHz microprocessor performs frame-by-frame analysis of captured images to optimum scanning accuracy. Up to 25...

LM Guides and Ball Screws utilize caged ball technology.

Measuring 976 x 540 x 300 mm, Type SNS300 LM Guide features 4-direction, equal load rating. Available in sizes up to 12025, Heavy Load Ball Screw Type HBN performs 100,000 cycles without problems when tested for durability under 118 kN load, 48 mm stroke, 3.8 m/min max conditions. Operation at higher ambient temperatures is identical at 20 and 80-

Ceramic Guides and Ball Spline suit medical applications.

Ceramic LM Guide Type RCR, Ceramic LM Guide Type RSR, Ceramic LM Guide HCR, and Ceramic Ball Spline LT use ceramic rails, blocks, and, in most cases, ceramic balls. This contributes to non-magnetic characteristics, increasing application potential. Products are suited for use in medical equipment and semi-conductor manufacturing equipment. They reduce weight of overall product and eliminate...

Square Rails reduce friction in linear guide system.

Designed for use in DryLin-® W modular linear guide system, DryLin-® WQ square rails reduce friction and ensure that loads are evenly distributed. In applications where rail does not travel across level plane, plastic liner, made with engineered polymer iglide-® J200, can be adapted to float and realign based on differentiating heights. Available in 20 and 6 mm sizes, products are suited for...

Linear-Motion Guide comes in maintenance-free, wide type.

Offering rail widths from 70-150 mm, Type SRW Caged Roller LM Guide uses highly rigid rollers with L/D of 1.5 or more. Caged Technology employs synthetic resin cage with curvature that cradles each roller and separates it from the next. Cage keeps rollers uniformly aligned so that skewing is prevented when entering load region of block. Spaces between rolling elements retain grease and act as...

Miniature Guide is available with 7mm rail width.

Caged Ball LM Guide versions SRS7M and the SRS7WM utilize THK Caged Technology, which employs synthetic resin cage with curvature that cradles each ball and separates it from next. Features include stainless steel bearing construction and design where each row of balls is arranged at 45-
