LM Guide Actuators

Construction

Because of its integral-structure inner block consisting of a highly rigid outer rail with a U-shaped cross section, LM Guide units on both side faces and a Ball Screw unit in the center, LM Guide Actuator model KR achieves a highly rigid and highly accurate actuator in a minimal space. In addition, since the housings A and B also serve as support units and the inner block as a table, this model allows significant reduction of man-hours required for design and assembly, thus contributing to total cost cutting.

4-way Equal Load

Each row of balls is arranged at a contact angle of 45° so that the rated load on the inner block is uniform under loads applied to the inner block in the four directions (radial, reverse radial and lateral directions). As a result, model KR can be used in any mounting orientation.

Equal Load

High Rigidity

Use of an outer rail with a U-shaped cross section increases the rigidity against a moment and torsion.

High Rigidity

High Accuracy

Since the linear guide section consists of 4 rows of circular-arc grooves that enable balls to smoothly move even under a preload, a highly rigid guide with no clearance is achieved. Additionally, variation in frictional resistance caused by load fluctuation is minimized, allowing the system to follow highly accurate feed.

3 Types of Accuracy Grades Available:

Normal Grade: ±0.01 mm
High Accuracy Grade: ±0.005 mm
Precision Grade: ±0.003 mm

High Accuracy

Load Ratings

Model KR basic load ratings are equal in all four directions.

Seal

Model KR is equipped with end seals and side seals for dust prevention as standard.
