Linear Bushing model LM is a linear motion system designed to operate with a cylindrical LM shaft to provide continuous straight motion. In the loaded area of the nut, the balls contact the LM shaft at a point, enabling straight movement with minimal resistance. Benefits - Very low friction for smooth, accurate straight travel - High positioning accuracy even with small permissible load - Reliable guidance when paired with a cylindrical LM shaft Key attributes - Compatibility: designed to work with cylindrical LM shafts - Size and materials: defined by the LM model and datasheet; refer to product specifications for exact details - Compact design suitable for tight spaces Performance - Point-contact geometry reduces friction and promotes precise, smooth motion along the shaft Use scenarios - Precision CNC axes for accurate linear travel in milling, routing, or drilling - Automated assembly lines and robotics requiring reliable straight-line guidance - Laboratory instrumentation, optical benches, or precision test rigs needing smooth, low-friction motion along a shaft Note - Size varies by LM model; consult the datasheet for exact dimensions and material details
