What are guideways explain its types?

Three basic types of guide ways can support linear motion between machine tool components: rolling-element, hydrostatic and plain sliding ways.

What is guideway in CNC?

A guideway is one of the important elements of the machine tool. The main function of the guideway is to make sure that the cutting tool or machine tool operative element moves along a predetermined path. while it is a straight line for lathe, drilling, boring machines, etc.

What are guideway requirements?

Requirements of guideways are : (a) Guideway should have high rigidity. (b) The surface of guideways must have greater accuracy and surface finish. (c) Guideways should have high accuracy of travel.

What is the guideway?

: a channel or track for controlling the line of motion of something.

What makes the HIWIN QE linear guideway so good?

The development of the Hiwin’s QE linear guideway is based on a four-row circular-arc contact. The QE series linear guideway with SynchMotion™ Technology offers smooth movement, superior lubrication, quieter operation and longer running life.

Which is the best series of linear guideways?

The RG series linear guideway offers high performance for high-precision manufacturing and can achieve a longer service life than traditional ball bearing linear guideways. The WE series features equal load ratings in the radial, reverse radial and the lateral direction with contact points at 45 degrees.

How does a HIWIN positioning guideway system work?

Hiwin’s positioning guideway system integrates a linear guideway with a magnetic encoder. This solution offers the high stiffness and rigidity of a guideway while obtaining high precision from the magnetic encoder.

What does synchmotion do to a linear guideway?

The QH series linear guideway with SynchMotion™ Technology offers smooth movement, superior lubrication, quieter operation and longer running life. Therefore the QH linear guideway has broad industrial applicability in the high-tech industry where high speed, low noise, and reduced dust generation is required.
