RGH-CA/HA Series Roller Guide Rails |
HGH-CA/HA Series Ball-Type Guide Rails |
Core Values |
| Core Positioning |
Ultimate rigidity, ultimate load capacity, ultimate stability – designed for the most demanding operating conditions. |
High performance, high precision and high versatility, meeting the vast majority of industrial requirements. |
Overcomes the performance limitations of ball-type guideways when they reach their limits in terms of load capacity and rigidity. |
| Rolling Elements and Contact |
Cylindrical rollers, line contact. Large contact area, uniform stress distribution, and high resistance to flattening. |
Steel balls, point contact. Concentration of contact stress. |
Delivers a significant leap in load capacity and rigidity, with improved service life calculations. |
| Rated Load |
Extremely high. For the same specifications, the rated dynamic and static load capacities are typically 2–4 times higher than those of ball-type guides, or even higher. |
High. |
Enables equipment to withstand enormous loads or significantly extends service life under heavy loads. |
| Rigidity |
Extremely high. The roller system exhibits minimal elastic deformation, providing near-‘absolute’ rigidity with virtually no displacement compromise under heavy loads. |
High. |
Ensures the absolute stability of the motion platform during heavy-duty cutting and high acceleration/deceleration, thereby enhancing machining accuracy and surface finish. |
| Shock and Vibration Resistance |
Excellent. The line-contact structure offers exceptional shock load dispersion, effectively absorbing and cushioning vibrations. |
Good. |
Suitable for processes involving severe impact, such as forging and stamping, protecting other components of the system. |
| Smooth Operation |
Extremely smooth and quiet. The rollers provide superior damping, eliminating the ‘chatter’ associated with ball bearings, making them particularly suitable for low-speed precision motion. |
Smooth and seamless. |
Provides the mechanical foundation for achieving mirror-finish machining and nanometre-level positioning. |
