Models

Model HSR

 
A global standard size LM Guide in which each row of balls is placed at a contact angle of 45° so that the rated loads applied to the LM block are uniform in the four directions (radial, reverse radial and lateral directions), enabling the LM Guide to be used in all orientations. Dimensional Table (1,949KB)  

Model SR

 
Since it is a compactly designed model that has a low sectional height and a ball contact structure capable of receiving a large load in the radial direction, this LM Guide is optimal for horizontal guide units. Dimensional Table (698KB)  
Model NR This model is an ultra-heavy type of LM Guide that achieves a deep grooved raceway with its diameter more approximate to the ball diameter than the conventional type and has high rigidity, vibration and shock resistance, and damping characteristics, which are required for machine tools. As a result, it is optimal for receiving a radial load in particular. Dimensional Table (1,149KB)  
Model NRS This model is an ultra-heavy type of LM Guide that achieves a deep grooved raceway with its diameter more approximate to the ball diameter than the conventional type and has high rigidity, vibration and shock resistance, and damping characteristics, which are required for machine tools. Dimensional Table (1,149KB)  
Model HRW Due to a low center-of-gravity structure with a large rail width and a low overall height, this LM Guide model can be used in places where space saving is required or high rigidity against a moment is required even with a single rail. Dimensional Table (492KB)  
Model RSR These models are Miniature LM Guides capable of receiving loads in all directions, and adequately operating under a small moment load despite being single-rail guides. Dimensional Table (667KB)  
Model RSR-Z This model is a Miniature LM Guide that achieves weight-saving and a low cost by using a resin material in part of the LM block. Dimensional Table (475KB)  
Model RSH This model is a Miniature LM Guide equipped with a ball retainer in the LM block. Dimensional Table (319KB)  
Model RSH-Z   Dimensional Table (532KB)  
Model HR An LM Guide that is capable of receiving the identical load in the 4 directions with parallel installation of 2 rails, has a low sectional height and allows the clearance to be adjusted. Dimensional Table (319KB)  
Model GSR Since this LM Guide model has a large self-adjustment capability, it is optimal for locations where it is difficult to secure mounting accuracy and for general industrial machines and the likes. Dimensional Table (376KB)  
Model GSR-R Since the thrust load on the pinion shaft can be kept low due to rack-pinion meshing, it is easy to design systems with pinion shaft bearings and tables that are not so rigid. Dimensional Table (375KB)  
Model CSR This model is an integral type of LM Guide that squares an internal structure similar to model HSR, which has a proven track record and is highly reliable, with another and uses two LM rails in combination. Dimensional Table (406KB)  
Model MX An integral type of Miniature LM Guide that allows an orthogonal LM system with an extremely low height to be established. Dimensional Table (305KB)  
Model JR Since its LM rail has a sectional shape with high flexural rigidity, this LM Guide can be used as a structural member. Dimensional Table (355KB)  
Model HCR An LM Guide capable of performing larger circular motion than rotary bearings. Dimensional Table (289KB)  
Model HMG This model is a new straight-curved guide that allows the same type of LM blocks to continuously move on straight and curved rails by combining the technologies of the LM Guide HSR and the R Guide HCR. Dimensional Table (490KB)  
Model NSR-TBC Since this LM Guide is highly capable of self adjustment and self alignment, it can be used even with rough installation. Dimensional Table (303KB)  
High Temperature A highly corrosion resistant LM Guide that achieves a maximum service temperature of 150℃. Dimensional Table (667KB)  
High Corrosion Resistance This model is an LM Guide that demonstrates superb corrosion resistance by using highly corrosion resistant stainless steel for the LM rail and the LM block and stainless steel for other metallic parts. Dimensional Table (667KB)
