FAQ Linear guides
-
- Question: Do you have user manual?
- Answer: No.
Please see more details in General information for design and selection of Linear Guides - Question: What is allowable load?
- Answer: Allowable load consists of Basic dynamic load rating, Basic static load rating, and Static moment rating.
- Question: What is Basic dynamic load rating?
- Answer: Basic dynamic load rating is defined as: a load applied in a constant direction and ran under equal condition on a group of linear guide specimen where 90% of specimen will reach 50×10³m
This parameter also used for calculating the life span of Linear Guides in case of receiving load while moving. - Question: What is Basic static load rating?
- Answer: Basic static load rating is defined as: a load applied on non-moving linear guides where a sum of rolling element plastic deformation amount and rolling surface plastic deformation amount becomes equal to 0.0001 times that of the diameter of the rolling element.
This parameter also used for calculating the Static Safety Factor for load receiving. - Question: What is Static moment rating?
- Answer: Allowable static moment is a critical static moment load defined by permanent deformation value where a sum of rolling element plastic deformation amount and rolling surface plastic deformation amount becomes equal to 0.0001 times that of the diameter of the rolling element.
For Linear Guides, moment can be separated in 3 directions: MA MB and MC
- Question: What is Static Safety Factor?
- Answer: Static safety factors are given in Table-1. When a linear system is still or moving at low speed, basic static load rating Co must be divided by fs in accordance with the conditions of use.
Safety factors should be considered and provided for safety design. Please see the table below for reference:
Static Safety Factor(Lower Limit of fs)Condition of Use Lower Limit of fs Under Normal Operating Conditions 1∼2 When Smooth Travel is Required 2∼4 When Subjected to Vibrations, Impacts 3∼5 - Question: What is life span?
- Answer: Life span is measured in terms of the total travel distance covered by the system up until initial flaking occurs because of rotation fatigue.
- Question: What is Rated life span?
- Answer: Rated life span is the total travel distance that each linear system of the same series can endure under the same conditions, without the occurrence of flaking in 90% of the system.
Safety design should consider and provide for these factors. - Question: What is Flaking?
- Answer: Flaking is a type of failure caused by movement fatigue on the rotating surface or rolling element from tension force, cracking will be occurred on surface which looked similar to fish skin.
- Question: What is Correction factors?
- Answer: Correction factors are coefficient of safety when considering to several factors that applied to Linear Guides (change of moment of inertia or timing of load applied due to the hardness of rail, operating temperature, application, etc.)
Correction factors consists of Hardness factors, Temperature factors, Contact factors, Load factors. - Question: What is Hardness factors?
- Answer: Hardness factors is used for correction the rated life from hardness. Linear Guides required for Sufficient hardness for ball contact shafts. Insufficient hardness causes less allowable load, resulting in shorter life span.
- Question: What is Temperature factors?
- Answer: Temperature factors is used for correction the rated life from operating temperature. When using at high temperature, hardness of Linear Guide and shaft decreases, resulting in less allowable load and shorter life span than used at a room temperature.
- Question: What is Contact Factor?
- Answer: Contact Factor is used for correction the rated life from contact during operation.
For actual applications, more than 2 blocks are generally used per shaft. In this case, load applied to each block varies depending on machining precision but is not uniformly distributed. As a result, per-block allowable load varies depending on per-shaft Linear Guide quantity which also effect to safety and shorter life span. - Question: What is Load Factor?
- Answer: Load Factor is used for correction the rated life from load applied.
In generally, it is difficult to attain accurate calculations due to potential vibration and impacts. So, we have to determine this factor to simplify the calculation of load and life span. - Question: What is Precision?
- Answer: It is tolerance and fits between rail and blocks, consists of Running Parallelism, Pair Variation of Height, Pair Variation of Width, etc.
Theses accuracy and precision classes also one of the criteria for selection of tools and position in machining process. - Question: What is Precision classes?
- Answer: Precision classes are Precision Grade, High Grade, Standard Grade (High Precision or Ct5 Ct7 in some manufacturers) etc.
Precision classes also one of the criteria for selection of manufacturer.
Theses precision classes also one of the criteria for selection of tools and position in machining process. - Question: What is Preload?
- Answer: Clearance between Rolling element and Rotation surface. In generally, preload (minus clearance) will reduce flexibility deform and increase the rigidity.
In addition, preload should be determined with vibration and impacts from movement in order to reduce negative effect to life span and accuracy. - Question: What is Running Parallelism Pair Variation of Height Pair Variation of Width?
- Answer: Running Parallelism is a relative variation measured as the block run from end to end on the rail while the rail is bolted firmly to a standard reference.
Pair Variation of Height is difference between the min. / max. values of Height (H) Dimension for a number of blocks combined on one rail.
Pair Variation of Width is difference between the min. / max. values of Width (W) Dimension for a number of blocks combined on one rail. - Question: What is friction force?
- Answer: Friction force varies depending on load, speed, lubricant property etc. during Linear Guides moving.
Especially when moment load applied, Preload Type friction force increases. - Question: What is Rolling element?
- Answer: Balls or rollers between rail and blocks.
- Question: What is Rotation surface?
- Answer: It is rotating surface of Rolling element. This surface was finishing with high precision process.
Surface hardness must be HRC58∼64 or higher. If not, it is necessary to correct life span by Hardness factors. - Question: What is applied load?
- Answer: Actual load that applied to Linear Guides.
- Question: What is Average of Fluctuating Loads?
- Answer: In general, load applied to Linear Guides varies depending on their applications. For example, there are cases at the start and stop of reciprocating motion, during constant motion or transfer with/without a workpiece. Therefore, it requires average load under which the life equals to the one under these fluctuating loads.
- Question: What is Equivalent load?
- Answer: When many load applied in various direction, load must be projected into radial load or reverse radial load in order to calculate the life span and Safety Factor.
Equivalent load is the resultant of load after projected. - Question: Does the accuracy of MISUMI Linear Guides similar to Linear Guides of other manufacturers.
- Answer: If they are classified in the same Precision Class, accuracy will be equally or higher. However, MISUMI does not offer product in Super Precision class.
- Question: How can I calculate the friction force (required thrust force) of Linear Guides?
- Answer: Friction force is obtained by the following formula.
Ｆ=μ・W+ｆ
F : Friction (N)
µ : Dynamic Friction Coefficient Miniature Linear guides 0.004∼0.006
Linear Guides for Medium and Heavy load 0.002∼0.003
W : Applied Load
f : Seal Resistance (2N ∼ 5N)
-
- Question: Do you have recommended specification of screw for rail mounting?
- Answer: Please use common hexagonal socket head cap screw.
CB Series (Socket Head Cap Screws)

-
- Question: Is it possible to use your Linear Guides on the wall, ceiling, or lift up?
- Answer: Yes,
MISUMI Linear Guide have the same load rating at all 4-mounting direction (radial, reverse radial, horizontal) Therefore, mounting direction has no effect to load rating. - Question: I found oil leak out from blocks when using in vertical direction.
Does it effect to performance? - Answer: No effect to performance.
MISUMI Linear Guides were not closed system, so oil can be leaked out. Anyway, it is recommended to shorten the interval of re-lubrication when using in vertical direction. - Question: I want to reduce the friction as much as possible, should I remove the side seal?
- Answer: Removing the side seal may lead to bad movement, so we do not recommend removing side seal.
Please check on other product that has lower friction than Linear Guides (Ball slide guide, Cross roller table type) - Question: Can I use Linear Guides by connecting of 2 rails?
- Answer: It is not recommended to connect 2 rails.
Because the end face of them may not fit enough, it may result in bad movement at connecting area. - Question: Can blocks be added or changed?
- Answer: Blocks can be added or replaced only Linear Guides for medium load and light preload type. Other type cannot be added or replaced block. (All Miniature Linear guides cannot be added or replaced block)
＜Linear Guides with light preload＞
