Lubrication points

NTN-SNR Linear Axis has depending on the series a different
number of lubrication points in different positions.
AXC / AXF Series
The Linear Axis of the AXC and AXF series are equipped on
both sides with grease nipples to guarantee the best possible
access. This means that per lubrication interval, the amounts of the
lubricant indicated in Chaper 4.6 may be introduced only on one
side of the axis in the appropriate grease nipple. The lubrication
points (Figure 4.4) are marked with «F» for the linear or track roller
guide and «S» for the screw. As grease nipples are depending
on the size cup head or hydraulic type grease nipple mounted.
For the toothed belt axis the lubrication point «S» is omitted.
For Linear Axis of the AXF series with the guiding system P
and the drive version Z or GN are the guiding system and the
drive maintenance-free and does not have a mounted lubrication
connection.
AXDL Series
Linear Axis of AXDL series are equipped at both front sides of
the slider unit with grease nipples, to guarantee the best possible
access. This means that per lubrication interval, the amounts of
the lubricant indicated in Chaper 4.6 may be introduced only
on one front side of the axis in the appropriate grease nipple.
For Linear Axis with screw drive the lubrication points (Figure
4.5) are marked with "F" for the linear or track roller guide on this
side and with "S" for the screw drive and the linear or track roller
guide on the other side. The lubrication points for Linear Axis with
toothed belt drive have no marking. As grease nipples are cup
head grease nipples mounted.
AXBG Series
Linear Axis of the series AXBG have per carriage one grease nipple
(Figure 4.6). By this grease nipple, the guiding system is supplied
with lubricant. For lubrication of the ball screw with the lubricant
is applied directly to the ball screw. The amounts of the lubricant
are specified in Chaper 4.6. For the versions with one carriage, the
grease nipple is mounted as standard on the floating bearing side,
but can also be exchanged on the fixed bearing side. For versions
with two carriages the grease nipples are arranged respectively
on the bearing side. Depending on the size, ball type or hydraulic
type grease nipple can be mounted.
