1、Friction: Both static friction and sliding friction can affect the motion accuracy of the guide. Static friction may cause stick-slip of the slider, while sliding friction can result in positional drift and therefore affect the positioning accuracy of the guide.
2、Deflection: The guide may experience deflection when subjected to loads, especially when the load is excessive or unevenly distributed. Excessive load can cause the guide to deflect, resulting in motion errors.
3、Temperature: The materials of the guide may undergo thermal expansion and contraction in high or low temperature environments, causing changes in the length and geometric shape of the guide, thus affecting its motion accuracy.
To reduce motion errors in high-precision linear guides, various measures can be taken, such as optimizing the design of the guide and slider, improving machining accuracy, adopting advanced lubrication technology and temperature control techniques. Additionally, regular maintenance and upkeep of the guide to ensure it is in good working condition are also important means of reducing motion errors.
With the continuous development of industrial automation technology, the application prospects of linear guides are very broad, and their application fields will become increasingly wide. Mechanical processing, precision parts, aerospace, marine exploration, robotics, and semiconductor manufacturing are among the important application areas for linear guides.
