MINIRAIL Product Overview
7.1.8 Sophisticated Lubrication Concept
MINIRAIL are delivered unlubricated as standard, allowing you to decide on the
optimal lubrication for the respective application (see chapter 7.2.12 «Lubricating
MINIRAIL»).
Each wiper on the carriages features two lubrication holes so that the left and right
ball recirculation pathways can be lubricated with oil separately. This ensures that
the tracks of the carriage can be supplied with lubricant independent of their
installation orientation.
Also consider the long-term lubrication option LUBE-S in chapter 8.1.
7.1.9 Excellent Running Properties
The ball recirculation, transitions and run-ins on the carriages are designed for
consistent redirection of the ball bearings. They ensure optimal containment of the
enormous centrifugal forces involved with minimal friction.
7.1.10 Maximum Protection from Contamination
The ultra-precise manufacturing of the carriages and guideways ensures minimal
clearance between them. This prevents the migration of dirt particles into
carriages.
