Compact Guides for Precise Linear Motion

Compact Guides for Precise Linear Motion Linear bearings type RSD from Micromech are compact guides for precise linear motion that provide high accuracy with an outstanding reliability. Depending on the load requirements they can be fitted with ball or roller cages . Depending on customer requirements the linear bearing can be fitted with ball or roller cages with alternately crossed rollers.The construction consists of two pair's linear bearings where one pair consists of two similar 90deg V-groove guideways. Cages fitted with balls are used in applications which require less capacity, low friction resistance or where dust and dirt are likely to penetrate into the guideways. This is because the balls are affected less by dust or dirt, due to a self-cleaning effect of the balls.The RSD linear bearings can have roller sizes from 1.5 to 24 mm and lengths from 20 to 1400mm.The guideways are machined with countersunk-bored attachment holes to a standard pitch configuration and there are threaded holes in the ends for fixing end-pieces and wipers.This compact bearing has been designed for high quality but is sensibly priced.The RSD is expected to quickly become the first choice for many in the scientific, pharmaceutical, research establishments and also in manufacturing where higher performance is the driver.
