Several conditions to be considered for the service life of linear guides? Swing type stroke when linear guide is running. When the rolling of the ball is repeated with a small stroke of less than half a circle, the premature wear phenomenon of wear and corrosion is caused by the lubricating oil being squeezed out of the contact between the ball and the ball surface. There is no complete solution to this kind of wear, but measures can be taken to slow down the wear.
At this time, it is recommended to use a lubricant for wear and corrosion. In addition, if you continue to use standard lubricants, you can make a normal stroke (the length of the slider is enough) after the ball has circulated thousands of times, which can significantly extend the life.
When bearing a torque load in the direction of vertical turning and yaw. When bearing the torque load in the direction of vertical turning and deflection, the load of the ball row in the slider is different, and it is generally mainly applied to the balls at both ends.
At this time, it is recommended to use a lubricant for heavy loads. In addition, the load on the balls can be reduced by adding a size to the product model.
However, for the usual configuration of two guide rails and four sliders, there is almost no torque load.
When a large load is applied during the stroke. When a large load is added to a certain position in the stroke, not only the average load needs to be calculated, but also the load in the stroke area.
In the case of a large load, such as a load in the tensile direction on the screw used for the installation of the guide rail and the slider, the strength of the screw must be considered.
When using at high speed. The maximum speed of the linear guide varies according to various conditions such as installation accuracy, operating temperature, external load conditions, etc. As a standard model under normal use conditions, the reference value of the maximum speed of the linear guide is 100 meters per minute.
When using at a speed higher than this, the end cap and other circulating parts need to be replaced with a high-speed model.
