A linear guide is a machine element that utilizes bearings, which were developed for rotary motion, in order to move heavy objects easily in a straight line. It is referred to as a “recirculating linear ball bearing” by ISO and JIS, and “linear guideway” by the Japan Machine Tool Builders’ Association.
The LM Guide (Linear Motion Guide) is our main product, incorporating a part with a linear rolling motion into practical usage for the first time in the world. It realizes the development of high-precision, high-rigidity, energy-saving, high-speed machines with long service lives.
