Linear Motion

High Rigidity Precision Linear Slide Units

Stainless steel ball-recirculating slide units sized for tight positional accuracy in inspection, metrology, and precision motion stages.

Compact precision in a sealed slide unit

BWU is a compact pre-engineered linear slide unit built for short, accurate travel in tight spaces. The all stainless steel construction resists corrosion and holds geometry, the non-recirculating ball train delivers smooth motion at low load, and carriage widths from 6 to 60 mm to allow stable accuracy and rigidity even in applications with fluctuating or complex loads.

  • Stable accuracy and rigidity. Limited linear motion guide structure with non-recirculating balls runs smoothly at low preload, holding repeatability across short strokes.
  • Stainless steel construction. Stainless rail, carriage, and ball train resist corrosion in cleanrooms, inspection rigs, and food or medical equipment.
  • High accuracy and smooth operation. Simultaneously grinding two-row track grooves minimizes error to maintain high accuracy and accurate component finish and ensures light and smooth operation.
