Steel Ball Chain Belt Heavy-Duty SME Series

Compared to conventional standard linear guides, the SME series steel ball chain belt-type linear guide features a patented design that incorporates a steel ball chain belt, enabling smoother and more stable operation. It is particularly well-suited for equipment that demands high speed and high precision.

Product Features

Compared to conventional standard linear guides, the SME series steel ball chain belt-type linear guide features a patented design that incorporates a steel ball chain belt, enabling smoother and more stable operation. It is particularly well-suited for equipment that demands high speed and high precision.

Four-way equal-load design

Through structural stress analysis, the optimized four-row ball bearing with a 45° arc contact angle and a high-rigidity cross-section design not only provides excellent load-carrying capacity in all four directions—radial, reverse-radial, and lateral—but also allows for increased rigidity through preload adjustment, making it particularly well-suited for a variety of installation configurations.

Has automatic self-aligning capability

The arc-shaped groove design of the positive combination (DF combination) gives it automatic self-aligning capability. Even when preloaded, it can absorb installation errors and maintain smooth, stable, and highly precise linear motion.

Steel bead chain belt design for smooth and effortless walking.

The simple and smooth ball-return path design features impact-resistant, reinforced synthetic resin ball-retention components. Combined with a ball-chain belt design, this system prevents friction between the balls themselves, ensuring smoother ball circulation as they move in and out of loaded and unloaded areas. Moreover, it keeps the balls aligned in a straight line during operation, significantly enhancing the smoothness of their movement.
