A rail guide consists of a rail and a carriage that together perform linear motion in your machine. Rail guides use either ball bearings or roller bearings to deliver high torque resistance, low friction, and excellent load capacity. We offer a wide range of rail guides that can be adapted to suit most applications. Common areas of use include machining centers, machine tools, measuring instruments, medical technology, and microelectronics.
Using ball bushings and steel shafts as linear guides is a proven technology within many mechanical systems and industrial applications. Bosch Rexroth's linear ball bushings and shafts can be assembled into over 1,000 different variants to meet user requirements and applications. These linear guides are designed to offer low friction and precise linear motion, making them ideal for a wide range of applications, from machine tools and automation to medical equipment and robotics.
