Configuration and Features:

Configuration

Cylindrical ball building consists of linear motion ball bearing, rail shaft, ball bearing supporting base, shaft supporting base, other parts, and so on. There are two types: closed type and open type. They are both classified according to product structure. The former has two types: clearance-adjustable and clearance-nonadjustable; the latter has only one:clearance-adjustable type. See Fig. 1 GTA type, Fig. 2 GTB type, and Fig.3 GTC type. Therefore GTC, type linear motion bushing is another model of open-type linear motion bushing. The difference of GTC and GTA is different mounting way.It is more flexible than GTA. It can not only save mounting space but also keep relevant accuracy. When necessary, two more supporting bases for the rail shaft may be fitted with GTA (general series)and GTAt(special series)open type. It is to eliminate the influence caused by deadweight of rail shaft on total height(H)of ball bearing supporting base and motion parallelism. This configuration is especially suitable for specifications of large travel distances, so higher motion accuracy could be achieved.Two or more supporting bases could not be fitted with these types of ball bushing, such as GTB(general series), GTBt(special series), GTB-t clearance-adjustable(available series), and GTBt-t clearance-nonadjustable(special series). Therefore, the deadweight of the rail shaft will inevitably influence the total height(H) of the bearing supporting base and motion parallelism. Thus, these types are generally used in short travel distances or low motion accuracy occasions.

Characters and Features:

The friction coefficient value is minimal, only 0.001~0.004.Power consumptionFlexible, accurate motion performance in trace amount; no slow crawling.Self-adjustable structure, so the lower accuracy of supplementary parts could be used.Lubrication is easy, and maintenance is convenient. Replacing parts can be done promptly.Motion speed and positioning accuracy are very high, and long travel distances are available.The rail shaft is made of good-quality alloy steel after quenching HRC58-63, capable of standing wear, stability performance, and accuracy-keeping function.

Accuracy Grade

Accuracy grades are classified into three precision grades (grade J) and common grades (including two kinds: grade P and grade P1)according to the manufacturing accuracy of ball bearings. Permission tolerance values of each grade are shown in Tab 1. A mate of the rail shaft with an inscribed circle of ball bearing is g6/H7, the same for mounting the external circle with the inner bore of the supporting base.Different types for different useClearance- nonajustable type:GTB, GTBtClearance-adjustable type: GTA GTAt GTB-t GTBt-t and GTCIf special requirements are required, please consult with us.When both are fitted in parallelism on the same surface, if each size H is requested in coherence with the others, please notify your contact.

Code Rules and Connotations:

Code exampleGTAt25-2/3 x 1000-P shows that it belongs to an open type, special series. The diameter of the rail shaft is 25mm; one set ball bushing is fitted with two bearing carriers(including bearing)and three supporting bases for the shaft; its total length is 1000mm, and the accuracy grade is P.GTB40-2x1500-J shows that it belongs to the close type,non-clearance-rectifying type. The diameter of the inscribed circle of the ball bearing and rail shaft is 400mm; a ball bushing is fitted with two sets of linear motion ball bearings, and its total length is 1500mm, and the accuracy grade is J.

Calculation Example

Mounting and Adjustment of Linear Balls Bearing:

Lubrication grease should be smeared in the uncontaminated inside of the bearing.Proper tooling are used to press on housing washer surface,when press bearing in fit supporting base. As shown in Fig.4, be sure not to knock at the bearing directly to avoid deformation.Insert rail shaft into bearing gently; centering line should be ensured. Deflecting plugging will likely deform the container and make balls drop. see Fig.5

There is no permission to rotate the bearing when plugging it into the supporting base; forcing rotation will damage the bearing. See Fig.6.

Do not fix the adjusting screw with the housing washer of the bearing directly to avoid deformation. See Fig.7.

Clearance-adjustable(close type)type and the open type, and the clearance-adjustable type should be mounted as shown in Fig.8 and Fig.9; then, tighten the clearance with a screw and pay attention that preload pressure should not be too enormous.

For mounting methods of ball-bearing supporting bases, see Fig.19 and Fig.11.

For standard methods of fixing ball bearings, see Fig.12, Fig.13, and Fig.14.
