Linear Guides
Linear guide solutions
When we need solutions forlinearmotion, you are probably familiar with some products, but we may not be aware of all the solutions available to us.
First, we must understandballscrews, which, as we can deduce, arelinearactuatorsresponsiblefor converting circular or rotational motion into linear motion, always with minimal friction loss. It is like a screw, which comes in various sizes and diameters and has multiple applications, whether in presses, clamps, milling machines, or hydraulic gates.
Another solution we found for linear motion islinearguides, devices that are widely used in industry, but there are surely many details that we don't know about or overlook.
Firstly, we should know thatlinearguides are availableinvery short lengths, as well as very long ones, exceeding 2 meters, which shows that they can cover a very wide range of movement, depending on our specific needs.
The main feature oflinearguides is that they help us achieve translation between parts, always with minimal friction loss, and they are also capable of withstanding forces acting perpendicular to their placement.
Another aspect we should be aware of is that there are different linear guidance systems available, depending on how the movement between parts is carried out, which can be divided into three main groups.
First, there arelinearcontactguides, in which the contact between these guides and the other body is direct, although there may be some type of coating between them to further minimize friction.
Secondly, there arelinearguideswithbearings, which are all those that use rollers, also calledballs,rollers,orwheels, which are located between the two solid bodies and are responsible for reducing friction between them.
Finally, there arehydrostaticlinearguides, in which instead of a solid component between the two bodies, there is some type of pressurized fluid, such as air or oil. This fluid prevents the two bodies from coming into contact, thereby reducing friction.

Different types of linear guides
When it comes tolinearguides, we must first mentionrollerlinearguides, whetherflat,Gothicarch, orV-type. All of them are widely used to carry out all types of guidance that require resistance, with simple and economical installation and easy maintenance.
We should also mentionballrecirculationguides, which are very easy to install and are one of the most popular solutions in the industry.
Anotherwidelyusedlinearguide is therollerrecirculation guide, among which we differentiatebetweentheprismaticguidewithslideandthecrossrollerguide. Both are widely used in sectors where heavy machinery is used.
Frictionguidesarenext on the list, and it should be noted that they are the oldest type used in engineering, being very popular in mechanisms that involve few movements.
We also findlinearairbearingguides, which feature a simple mechanism and offer excellent movement precision.
Finally, we will discusshydrostaticguides, which are widely used in machine tool applications. These guides operate by filling the space between the guide and the slide with a film of oil, creating friction but without physical contact between the parts.
