Linear guide manufacturers teach you how to maintain linear guides
First of all, linear guide maintenance is divided into maintenance before and after installation of linear guide rails. However, in actual applications, many users of linear guide rails do not know how to maintain linear guide rails. Steel balls often fall out and end caps explode. Phenomenon.
Users of linear guides usually install the linear guide directly on the equipment. The linear guide slider is like a human face. If it is not taken care of in time, it will become rough. If the linear guide slider is not filled with oil, it will become dry. Movement on the guide rail will increase the friction and make it not smooth. Over time, it will be prone to damage.
The linear guide manufacturer teaches you the solution, which is to refuel the linear guide slider before installation. The method of refueling the linear guide slider is very simple:
After the linear guide rail is installed, use an oil gun to inject it through the oil nozzle at least three times. After the first injection, push the linear guide slider away for a while and then inject the second time, and so on. When refueling the linear guide slider, follow the instructions. Choose different greases for different usage situations. Including linear guide oil, linear guide dual-purpose oil and linear guide grease.
In some machines with harsh operating environments, the linear guide rails are larger and have a simple structure. They are designed to use linear guide rail grease. Most of them use manual grease gun squeeze-type oiling. Generally, oiling is required once every 500 kilometers.
