Utility Slide Advanced Wheel Guide Lineup Expanded with New Compact Model AWG18

The Advanced Wheel Guide is a utility slide composed of a U-shaped outer member with two grooves and a carriage with mounted wheels. Possessing the aligning function that THK has developed with the LM Guide, it can absorb error present in rough installations and provide long-term, smooth, and stable guiding motion. Additionally, thanks to superior contamination prevention provided by a proprietary scraper, it can even be used in adverse environments.

THK has now added the new Model AWG18 to its existing lineup that includes Models AWG28, 35, and 43. Anticipating demand for these products from the logistics industry, THK has expanded the number of options available to customers in order to meet a wider variety of their needs going forward.

THK will continue to use the technology and know-how it has cultivated as a top manufacturer of linear motion guides to provide optimal solutions for a wide variety of fields.
