Significant cost reductions have been achieved through the simplification of the structure.
The Straight-Curve Guide HMG type is a new straight-curve guide that enables continuous operation of straight and curved sections using a single type of LM block by combining the technologies of the straight LM Guide HSR type and the curved R Guide HCR type. This results in significant cost reductions through improved work efficiency in assembly and transport lines, inspection equipment, and simplification of structures by reducing lift and turn tables.

basic information
● Free Design It is possible to freely combine straight lines and curves. Smooth transitions between straight and curved sections allow for flexible combinations such as O, U, L, and S shapes. Additionally, the straight and curved guide HMG type enables the installation of large tables and the transportation of heavy objects through combinations of single-axis multiple LM blocks and two or more LM rails, allowing for a highly flexible design. ● Reduction of Transport Time Unlike the shuttle method, using the HMG type in a circulation method allows for the setup of workpieces during inspection and assembly operations, significantly improving the takt time of the work. Increasing the number of tables can further reduce the takt time. ● Cost Reduction through Simplification of Mechanisms By combining straight and curved rails, the lift and turn tables traditionally used for changing direction in transport and manufacturing lines become unnecessary, simplifying the mechanism and significantly reducing the number of parts, which leads to cost reduction. Additionally, it allows for a reduction in design man-hours.
