Linear Slide Configurations by Guide and Drive

Every Haozhi slide pairs one guide family with one drive type.

Drives:

Drive Best for
Undriven Setup, adjustment and fixture axes
Precision ball screw High-thrust feed axes in a simple package
Flat linear motor Direct-drive axes where speed and fast response matter

An undriven slide works as a manual linear slide: the operator positions the carriage by hand and locks it, which suits fixture and setup axes that move only between jobs. A ball screw turns the slide into a driven axis. A servo motor rotates the screw and the nut moves the carriage, so one package delivers thrust and positioning. A flat linear motor acts as a direct-drive linear slide actuator. Force goes straight to the carriage with no screw, coupling or backlash, so the axis responds quickly. The DLMF-03W is a 2,000 N flat linear motor, and the DLMF-04W is a water-cooled, higher-thrust option.

Guides (linear slide rail):

Heavy-duty ball

HAR heavy-duty ball linear guides, for machine-tool feed axes that carry moment loads.

Heavy-duty roller

HBR roller linear guideways, for axes where rigidity comes first.

Wide miniature

HVW wide miniature guideways, for compact automation axes with limited space.

Heavy-Duty Linear Slides

Move to a heavy-duty ball or roller guide when the carriage sees large overhung loads, tilting moments or interrupted cutting forces. Light-duty slides lose rigidity first under those conditions. Start with HAR on machine-tool axes, and choose HBR when stiffness outranks every other requirement. Send us the load direction and offset, and we confirm the guide.

Specifications to Define Before You Order

Rail widths, dynamic load ratings, accuracy classes and preload classes are listed per model in each guide's datasheet. We send the datasheet for the model you are evaluating. Ball screw lead and accuracy grade, and linear motor peak and continuous force and maximum speed, are matched to your feed rate and positioning target and stated at quotation.

Parameter What to tell us
Travel Stroke required, plus overtravel margin
Load Mass, direction, and the offset that creates moment loads
Accuracy Positioning and repeatability targets, and whether you use a linear encoder
Speed and acceleration Maximum feed rate and duty cycle
Mounting Orientation (horizontal, vertical, wall) and interface to your frame
Environment Coolant, chips, dust, washdown or cleanroom conditions
Drive and motor Undriven, ball screw or linear motor; motor and encoder interface
Quantity Prototype, small batch or annual OEM volume

Linear slide price depends on travel, guide family, drive, accuracy requirement and quantity. We quote against your specification and do not publish a fixed price list.

Where These Slides Fit

Machine-tool axes

Auxiliary and feed axes on CNC machines, alongside our spindles and rotary tables.

Automated production lines

Transfer, loading and positioning axes.

Robotics and gantry axes

Multi-axis builds that pair slides with servo motors and servo drives.

Semiconductor and PCB equipment

Compact, controlled-motion axes.

We supply components and axis modules for your equipment. We do not build complete machines.

Customization, Lead Times and Sealing

Customization

Customization covers interface and encoder options, plus application-specific design for CNC machines, robotics, automated lines and semiconductor equipment. A typical request is a gantry axis with HAR guides and a flat linear motor, rail length cut to your stroke, and the encoder interface matched to your servo drive.

Lead times

Lead time depends on the slide configuration. Rail length, drive type, encoder and sealing all affect the schedule, so we confirm a delivery date for your slide at quotation. For repeat OEM volumes, deliveries are scheduled against your yearly forecast.

Sealing

For coolant and chip exposure, tell us whether you need double-lip end seals, scrapers or bellows covers, and we confirm what fits your chosen guide.

Why Source the Axis from Haozhi

One supplier covers the guide, the drive and the motor side of an axis, so fewer interfaces fall between vendors.

Management systems

ISO 9001 quality and ISO 14001 environmental management.

In-house core parts

Motors, rotors, stators and encoders are developed and made in-house.

Inspection

Three-stage inspection (initial, specialized and cross) with traceability, and metrology that includes Zeiss CMM and Taylor Hobson roundness measurement. See quality control.

Engineering depth

400+ R&D engineers, plus servo drive and motor capability through Infranor.

Request a Quote or Technical Consultation

Send your travel, load, accuracy target, environment and quantity, and an engineer replies with a recommended configuration.

Linear Slide FAQ

How long does a linear slide take to deliver?

It depends on the configuration and quantity. A catalog slide and an engineered-to-order axis follow different schedules. Send your travel, drive and encoder requirements, and we confirm the delivery date in your quotation.

What is the minimum order quantity?

Minimum order quantity is set per configuration and stated in the quotation. Give us your volume, whether prototype, small batch or annual OEM, so the quote reflects it.

Should I choose a ball or roller guide?

Choose HAR ball guides for machine-tool feed axes with moment loads. Choose HBR roller guideways when rigidity is the priority. Load direction, offset and accuracy target decide between them.

How are slides sealed against coolant?

Sealing is specified per axis. Tell us the coolant type, how directly it reaches the rail and the chip load. If you need double-lip end seals, scrapers or bellows covers, we confirm the option for your guide at quotation.
