Products

  • Linear Way (ball types) ML seriesProfile-rail linear guides featuring two rows of recirculating balls with four points of contact for high-rigidity motion in machine tools and industrial automation.
  • Crossed roller ways CRWBare rail crossed roller way. The widest CRW catalog, in carbon steel and stainless variants for general precision motion.
  • Linear ball splinesSplined shaft and outer cylinder assemblies that carry torque while allowing free axial travel.
  • Crossed roller bearingsCompact precision bearings that carry radial, axial, and moment loads on a single race for rotary tables, robot joints, and indexing drives.
  • Cam followersHeavy-duty rotary support for cam tracks, indexing mechanisms, and material-handling guides.
  • Linear motor tablesDirect-drive linear-motor stages for high-speed, high-accuracy positioning without ball-screw friction or wear.
  • Ball screw tablesBall-screw-driven positioning stages for high-thrust, high-load applications where rigidity and lifecycle matter more than peak speed.
