Traditional locking slides (e.g. HGH-HA) |
Core Values |
| Core Positioning |
An innovative solution that overcomes the challenges of top-mounted installation, enabling the ultimate in compact and integrated equipment design. |
A universal, standard installation method suitable for most applications. |
Overcomes the design limitations imposed by traditional installation methods. |
| Installation Method |
Locking from the side or bottom. As the mounting screws do not penetrate the top of the slide block, the load platform can be mounted directly against the upper surface of the slide block. |
Secured from the top. Installation screws must be screwed in from the bottom of the load platform, or the load platform must be fitted with clearance holes. |
Allows the load platform to act as a ‘cover plate’ that directly encloses the slide block, simplifying the structure and reducing overall height. |
| Compact Design |
Excellent. By eliminating the need for top clearance for mounting screws, the overall height of the moving parts can be minimised, resulting in a simpler structure. |
Requires space for a spanner or sufficient clearance height. |
Enables the design of ultra-slim equipment modules and built-in slide rails. |
| Rigid Connection |
High. The screws are tightened diagonally from the lower side, generating a downward pulling force that firmly ‘presses’ the load platform against the slide’s reference surface, ensuring a large contact area and a secure connection. |
High. Screws are tightened vertically, ensuring a reliable connection. |
Offers connection rigidity equivalent to, or even superior to, traditional methods. |
| Sealing and Dust Protection |
Superior. As the top of the slide can be completely covered by the load platform, this fundamentally eliminates the risk of dust, chip accumulation and liquid dripping onto the top, providing better protection. |
Screw holes or gaps at the top may act as entry points for contamination. |
Particularly suitable for harsh environments such as cleanrooms, as well as those with high levels of dust and oil contamination. |
| Ease of Maintenance |
Note: When installing or removing the load platform, it may be necessary to operate from the side of the equipment, which imposes certain space requirements. |
Direct operation from above is generally more intuitive and convenient. |
In specific configurations, maintenance accessibility can be addressed through design. |
