Eliminating the Hidden Cost of Machine Design

May 5, 2023
In many applications, medium-precision guides are more cost-effective than the ever-popular profiled rail.

When machine designers need a linear guide, many automatically choose a profiled, high-precision guide based on familiarity. In doing so, they overlook a class of medium-precision linear guides with a host of benefits that can make them much more cost-effective than the high-precision guides they ordinarily specify. Medium-precision guides do not saddle machine builders with added burdens. That means quicker machine turnarounds so products get to market faster, and you can pass the savings on to your customers to gain a competitive advantage.
