Linear guide rail, also known as line rail, slide rail, linear guide rail, linear slide rail, is used in the situation of linear reciprocating motion, and can bear certain torque, and can achieve high-precision linear motion under high load. It is called linear guideway in mainland China, linear guideway in Taiwan.

As one of the core parts of the equipment, guide rail and linear axis play a guiding and supporting role. In order to ensure the high machining accuracy of the machine, it is required that its guide rail and straight line have high guiding accuracy and good movement stability.

During the operation of the equipment, a large number of corrosive dust and smoke will be produced during the processing of the processed parts. Based on the large amount of smoke and dust deposited on the surface of the guide rail and the linear axis for a long time, it has a great impact on the processing accuracy of the equipment, and will form corrosion points on the surface of the linear axis of the guide rail and shorten the service life of the equipment.

In order to ensure the normal and stable operation of the machine and the processing quality of the products, the daily maintenance of the guide rail and the linear shaft should be done well.

Note: please prepare dry cotton cloth and lubricating oil for cleaning guide rail. The guide rail of engraving machine is divided into linear guide rail and roller guide rail. Cleaning of linear guide: first, move the laser head to the rightmost (or left side), find the linear guide, wipe it with dry cotton cloth until it is bright and dust-free, add a little lubricating oil (sewing oil can be used instead of engine oil), slowly push the laser head left and right several times to make the lubricating oil evenly distributed.

Cleaning of roller guide rail: move the crossbeam to the inside, open the end covers on both sides of the machine, find the rail clamp, wipe the contact area between the two sides of the guide rail and the roller with dry cotton cloth, and then move the crossbeam to clean the rest.
