LINEAR MOTION TECHNOLOGY Technical Information Operating temperature range Load capacity and life The Linear Guide Series have a permissible operating temperature between -40 °C Equivalent load and Velocity When the load and velocity are not constant, all actual loads and velocities must be considered, and it will impact the service life. Friction The linear guides have stable and constant running friction and slight start-up friction, which brings out the properties of the For each segment of each block, when the load changes, the equivalent load is calculated according to formula (9).
