Identication Number and Specication


Example of an identication number
The specifications of ML(F) and LWL(F) series are indicated by the identification number. Indicate the identication number, consisting of a model code, dimensions, a part code, a material code, a preload symbol, a classification symbol, an interchangeable code, and a supplemental code for each specication to apply.
The aquamarine end plate is the symbol of maintenance free.

Ball retained type for easy operation


The slide unit of ball retained type incorporates the ball retaining band, which prevents the ball from dropping down when the slide unit is removed from the track rail. This safety structure brings you an easy operation to the machines / equipment.

The slide unit shape can be selected from two types, the standard type and the wide type suited for single-row track rail uses, and there are four types with different lengths of slide unit with same section. Furthermore, the track rail has the variation of standard type and tapped rail type with the screw thread implanted, allowing you to select an optimal product for the specications of your machine and device.

Stainless steel highly corrosion-resistant is used as the basic specication, so that the products are suitable for applications where rust prevention oil is not preferred, such as in cleanroom environment. High carbon steel products suited to general purposes are also provided.

Dust Protection
The slide unit of ML(F) series and LWL(F) series is dust protected by end seals included as standard. However, if large amount of contaminant or dust are oating, or if large particles of foreign substances such as chips or sand may adhere to the track rail, it is recommended to attach a protective cover to the linear motion mechanism. No end seal is provided for size 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6 series. For applications in the environment not clean enough, cover the entire unit with a protective case, etc. to prevent harmful foreign substances such as dust and particles from outside to enter.

The dimensions of the slide unit with C-Lube at both ends are indicated. 2. A typical identification number is indicated, but is applied to all LWL(F) series models of the same size.

Lithium-soap base grease (MULTEMP PS No.2 [KYODO YUSHI CO., LTD.]) is pre-packed in ML(F) and LWL(F) series. Additionally, ML(F) series has C-Lube placed in the recirculation part of balls, so that lubricant replenishment interval can be extended and maintenance man-hours such as grease job can be reduced signicantly. ML(F) series and LWL(F) series have grease nipple or oil hole as indicated in Table 14. Since the Size 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 series do not have an oil hole, apply grease directly to the raceway part of the track rail for re-greasing. Supply nozzles t to each shapes of grease nipple and dedicated supplying equipment (miniature greasers) fit to oil holes are also available. When these parts are desired, refer to Table 14 and Table 15.1 in -22 and Table 16 of page -23 to order.

Mounting screws for slide unit To mount a slide unit, tightly fasten the bolt against female thread of slide unit. The female thread is created through holes of the slide unit for size 1 series, and also through holes for the slide unit and track rail for size 2, 3, 4 and 6 series. When the xing thread depth of the mounting screw goes too deep, it can interfere with the track rail and impact the running accuracy or product life so that the fixing thread depth should be within the screwing depth specied in the dimension table. Also prepare the small screws dedicated to precision devices (head diameter 1.8 mm or smaller) for the mounting bolt of slide unit of size 1. Mounting screws for track rail In the size 2 and 3 series and tapped rail specifications, track rail mounting bolts are not appended. Prepare mounting bolts whose xing thread depth is less than H4 in dimension table. Shoulder height and corner radius of the reference

general mounting structure When mounting the ML(F) series and LWL(F) series, properly align the reference mounting surfaces B and D (D1 or D2)of the track rail and slide unit with the reference mounting surface of the table and bed before xing them. (See Fig. 2) Reference mounting surfaces B and D (D1 or D2) and mounting surfaces A and C are precisely ground. By machining the mounting surface of the mating member, such as machine or device, to high accuracy and mounting them properly, stable linear motion with high accuracy is obtained. Reference mounting surface of the slide unit of size 2 or mark. The track rail higher is the opposite side of the reference mounting surface is identified by locating the mark on the top surface of the track rail. It is the side surface above the mark (in the direction of the arrow). (See Fig. 5.2) Reference mounting surface of the slide unit of size 1 is located at both right and left sides (D1 and D2). (See Fig. 5.1) The track rail of LWL1Y has the mounting structure of lateral direction. Two types of mounting structure as shown in Fig. 3.1 and Fig. 3.2 are available.

Tightening torque for mounting bolts Typical tightening torques for mounting ML(F) series and LWL(F) series to the steel mating member material are indicated in Table 15. When vibration and shock of the machine or device are large, fluctuating load is large, or moment load is applied, x it by using the torque 1.2 to 1.5 times larger than the value indicated in the table as necessary. If the mating member material is cast iron or aluminum, reduce the tightening torque depending on the strength characteristic of the mating member material.

Notes1Track rail lengths L are shown in Table 3.1 on page -10 and Table 3.3 on page -12. 2The appended track rail mounting bolts are hexagon socket head bolts equivalent to JIS B 1176. For stainless steel model, stainless steel made bolts are appended. 3The direction of basic dynamic load rating (C), basic static load rating (C0), and static moment rating (T0, TX, TY) are shown in the sketches below. The upper values of TX and TY are for one slide unit and the lower values are for two slide units sticking. If hybrid C-Lube Linear Way specication (supplemental code "/HB") is selected in MLC15, ML15, MLG15, and MLL15, see Table 10 on page -17. 4The shapes of grease nipple vary by size. The specications are shown in Table 14 on page 18.

Notes

Track rail lengths L are shown in Table 3.2 on page -11. 2Size 4 and 6 are non-retained-ball type. No end seal is attached. 3Choose screws whose dimension allow xing thread depth into track rail R to be less than H4. 4The direction of basic dynamic load rating (C), basic static load rating (C0), and static moment rating (T0, TX, TY) are shown in the

sketches below. The upper values of TX and TY are for one slide unit and the lower values are for two slide units sticking. 5No oil hole is prepared for size 4 and 6. The specication of oil hole for size 10 is shown in Table 13 on page -18. Remark: The identication numbers with * are our semi-standard items.
