Caged Ball LM Guide Model SRS has two raceways incorporated into its compact structure, enabling the model to receive loads in all directions, and to be used as a single axis in locations where a moment is applied. In addition, use of ball cages eliminates friction between balls, thus achieving high speed, low noise, reduced running sound, long service life, and long-term maintenance-free operation.

Low Dust Generation


Use of ball cages eliminates friction between balls and retains lubricant, thus achieving low dust generation. In addition, the LM block and LM rail use stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion.

Compact


Because the LM rail has a low cross-sectional height and a compact structure with a single row of balls on either side, it can be installed in smaller areas.

Lightweight


Since part of the LM block (e.g., around the ball relief hole) is made of resin and formed through injection molding, SRS is a lightweight, low-inertia type of LM Guide.
