Linear guide

INDUSTRY

MATERIALS

APPLICATION

Linear guides made from ceramic materials can be applied in high vacuum, so completely without the need for lubricants. Furthermore, the high stiffness is an added value for an accurate system. These guides are non-magnetic and well electrically insulating.

In positioning systems that operate in vacuum, ceramics are indispensable.

Ceramic linear guides can be integrated into ceramic parts. This gives you a stiffer and more precise system than if you would assemble separate components.

PROPERTIES

Runs without lubricant
Lightweight
Non-magnetic
Not electrically conducting

PRODUCTS

WATER of CHEMIE

WATER or CHEMISTRY

Ceramic product: Ceramic linear guide, ceramic raceways and balls, lubricated by water or other chemicals.
Advantage: The service life of a mildly loaded bearing will be very long - up to infinity.

MEDISCHE TOEPASSING

MEDICAL APPLICATION

Ceramic product: Ceramic linear guide, ceramic raceways, ceramic balls.
Advantages: Non-magnetic properties in MRI or special reflection in CT scanners can be beneficial. Can be sterilized.

ULTRAHOOG VACUUM

ULTRA-HIGH VACUUM

Ceramic product: Untirely ceramic linear guide, ceramic raceways, ceramic balls.
Advantage: No lubrication required in ultra-high vacuum.

MAGNETISCH GEVOELIGE OMGEVING

MAGNETICALLY SENSITIVE ENVIRONMENT

Ceramic product: Ceramic linear guide.
Advantage: Because in some applications the magnetic fields are so strong that no magnetic or conductive material may/can be used, we can still successfully use full ceramic linear guides.

HOGE VERSNELLINGEN

HIGH ACCELERATIONS

Ceramic product: Lightweight linear guides made entirely of ceramics.
Advantage: Linear guides made of ceramics can be 60% lighter in weight than metal guides of the same dimensions. This can be advantageous in fast running applications and in case of high accelerations or decelerations.

LAGE WRIJVING

LOW FRICTION

Ceramic product: Ceramic linear guide
Advantage: Because ceramic materials are harder and stiffer, they theoretically have a lower rolling resistance than metal linear guides, as less elastic deformation occurs.

Cost-effective profile or linear guide with high load capacity.

ADDED VALUE

The added value of ceramics can be:

Non-magnetic
Not electrically conducting
Low friction in ultra-high vacuum and other complex applications.
Cost-effective profile or linear guide with high load capacity and extremely high accuracy.
