Custom Linear Guides Provide Freedom for Machine Designs

Most design engineers assume they are stuck with standard sized linear guides.


Most design engineers assume they are stuck with standard sized linear guides. But what if you really want guides that incorporate:

  • Gear racks
  • Linear tape encoders
  • Cable carriers
  • Wire ducts
  • Secondary machining like threaded end holes

Adding these features to your linear guides can reduce the complexity of your machine designs.

In this white paper, you’ll learn:

  • How hardened steel vee guide track can be incorporated into extruded profiles
  • Ideas for including useful features that can simplify an overall machine design
  • How extruded profile guiles can be supplied as complete sub-assemblies in small batch production quantities
