Note on the use of THK Linear Motion Guide.

• Prevent rust

When taking the THK Linear Motion Guide directly by hand, thoroughly wash away the sweat from your hands and apply high-quality mineral oil before proceeding.

• Keep the environment clean

Keep the THK Linear Motion Guide and its surroundings clean even if tiny dust invisible to the naked eye enters the guide, it will increase the wear, vibration, and noise of the guide.

Cleaning of THK Linear Motion Guide.

The guide rail and the straight axis are one of the core parts of the equipment, whose function is to guide and support. To ensure the high processing accuracy of the machine, the guide rails and straight lines are required to have high guiding accuracy and good movement stability. During the operation of the equipment, a large amount of corrosive dust and smoke will be generated due to the processing of the workpiece. These smoke and dust deposits in the guide rail and linear axis for a large number of a quite long time, which has a great impact on the machining accuracy of the equipment on the surface, and will form the guide of the linear axis on the surface of the pit railway, shortening the service life of the equipment. To make the machine work normally and stably and ensure the processing quality of the products, the daily maintenance of the guide rail and linear axis must be done carefully. Please prepare a dry cotton cloth and lubricating oil for cleaning THK Linear Motion Guide. First move the laser head to the far right (or left) to find the THK Linear Motion Guide, wipe it with a dry cotton cloth until it is bright and dust-free, and add a little lubricating oil (sewing machine oil can be used, not machine oil), and the laser head Slowly pushes it from left to right several times to distribute the lubricant evenly.
