THK has added two new models to its proven range of high performance linear actuators. The latest versions of the SKR are now available in smaller sizes, of 20 and 26mm, and form part of a product family that is designed to combine exceptional levels of rigidity, accuracy and reliability in compact, virtually zero maintenance units. The new SKR linear actuators incorporate THK’s patented caged ball technology. Read more »
A new range of linear slides and guides has been launched by THK, the world’s largest dedicated developer and manufacturer of linear motion technology, for use in on- and off-road vehicles. Designed to help improve operating efficiencies and reduce the cost of ownership, while offering greater functionality, performance, and safety than existing devices, the new linear products have the potential to be used in a wide range of transport systems, ranging from tail lift and trailer mechanisms to earth moving plant and servicing and maintenance equipment. The new generation of products includes a range of robust thk ballscrews, for more rugged applications, and heavy-duty THK linear guides systems. Read more »
THK, the leading global designer, developer and manufacturer of linear motion solutions, has introduced a number of additions to its proven range of performance linear motion guides. Designed for use in heavy and ultraheavy load applications, the linear guides are particularly suitable for the machine tool industry where high speeds, ultrahigh levels of rigidity, extremely precise positioning and long-term maintenance free operation are required. The LM guides have been introduced to extend the SNR, radial type model, and SNS, four-way equal-load type model, product ranges and, in each case, incorporate THK’s patented Caged Ball technology.

Innovative THK linear motion guide products are making it possible to produce quieter and more compact operating mechanisms for sliding doors in elevators and general building applications. With noise levels reduced by up to 50% compared with conventional products, the new mechanisms minimize the disturbance created by a door opening and closing – a benefit which is particularly important in quiet environments, such as hospitals and libraries. The smaller size of the new mechanisms allows them to be accommodated in a slim enclosure which is, in most cases, mounted above the doors. Read more »
THK continues to push the boundaries of its proven Caged Ball technology, with the introduction of the system into a new range of miniature SRS LM guides. The benefits of caged ball technology, most notably silent movement, virtually maintenance-free operation and high speed, make the new miniature linear motion guides (including THK linear bearing components) particularly suitable for use in semiconductor, electronics manufacture, biotec, medical and precision automation and measurement applications. Available in 9, 12 and 15mm rail widths, the new miniature SRS LM guides maintain compact dimensions in all planes. Read more »
THK has launched two new models to extend still further its proven range of high performance THK linear motion guide systems. The latest versions of the SRW Caged roller guide are now available with extra-wide guide rails, of 130 and 150mm in width, to provide even greater load capacity, in terms of both weight and overall size, with excellent levels of rigidity, positional accuracy and repeatability. The new SRW LM guide incorporates THK’s patented Caged Roller technology, which is based on the proven operating techniques used in the company’s Caged Ball linear motion devices, with the steel ball arrangement being replaced with two sets of opposing caged rollers positioned at 45-degree contact angles between each side of the block and rail.

THK has added two new models to its proven range of high performance linear motion systems. The latest versions of the Super roller guide (SRG) are now available in larger sizes of 85 and 100mm, and form part of a product family that is designed to combine exceptional levels of rigidity, accuracy and reliability in compact, virtually zero maintenance units. The new THK LM Guide incorporates their patented Caged Roller technology. Read more »
By specifying THK’s innovative ballscrews, AddisonMcKee successfully reduced the size of its latest tube-bending machine, while increasing controllability and slashing energy consumption. Although some believe bigger is better, others consider smaller sizes more appealing. Mobile phone manufacturers, microchip producers and personal computer designers have all seen the extreme benefits of going small with compact automation components. Read more »
