Hydrostatic linear guides

May 1, 2010
HLE Series hydrostatic compact linear guidance systems combine hydrostatic damping with compact dimensions

HLE Series hydrostatic compact linear guidance systems combine hydrostatic damping with compact dimensions in a design that is more cost effective and easier to mount than old systems.

Features & benefits

  • Suitable where vibration damping is required — in high-speed machining, grinding, and applications subject to blade-contact shocks, tool wear, regenerative effects, and other disruptive forces

  • Fit inside same design space as typical rolling-element-based guidance systems

  • Size 45 (45-mm rail width) HLE guide damps more than 470,000 kg per second; operates at 100 bar nominal pressure with an oil viscosity class of ISO VG 46

  • Carriage made of steel saddle plate with pressure pockets and two end pieces; guides comply with ISO/DIN mounting dimensions; moves on a thin cushion of high-pressure fluid
