Linear Slide Block

Specifications

1. Material

• Block Body: Often made from high-strength materials like hardened steel, stainless steel, or aluminum alloy.
• Balls: Usually made from bearing steel or ceramic to reduce friction and wear.
• Lubrication: Blocks may include lubrication channels or be pre-lubricated.

2. Load Capacity

• Dynamic load capacity varies depending on size; it can range from 10 kN to 50 kN for medium-duty applications.
• Static Load Capacity: Typically higher than dynamic, ranging from 20 kN to 70 kN depending on the type and size.

3. Accuracy Classes

• Standard Class (C): For general applications.
• High Class (H): Higher precision for demanding applications.
• Precision Class (P): Extremely tight tolerances for high-precision tasks.

4. Dimensions

• Height: Generally ranges from 20mm to 70mm depending on the series.
• Length: Length varies with the load rating, typically between 40mm to 200mm.
• Width: Between 20mm to 100mm, depending on the size and model.

5. Mounting Holes

• Typically threaded for easy installation.
• Hole Diameter: Common sizes are M3, M5, M6, or M8, depending on block size.
• Hole Spacing: Varies but generally spaced 20mm to 50mm apart.

6. Preload

• Options for no preload, light preload, or heavy preload depending on the application. Preloading helps in reducing clearance and increasing rigidity.

7. Lubrication Options

• Sealed or non-sealed options are available.
• Some blocks come with integrated lubrication systems.

8. Operating Temperature Range

• Typically operates between -10°C to 80°C but can be extended with specialized materials.

9. Linear Rail Compatibility

• Compatible with various types of rails (e.g., Hardened Rails, Precision Ground Rails), commonly square or round rails.

10. Applications

• Used in CNC machines, 3D printers, robotic systems, factory automation, and linear actuators.
