Cleaning methods for linear guides
Cleaning methods for linear guides. The purpose of using linear guides on machine tools is to provide guidance and support. This role can be said to be very important in production, not only improving production efficiency, but also ensuring the quality of products. It can be said that using linear guides can ensure the accuracy of machine tool processing.
And in order to ensure such precision, the linear guide rail needs to have good guidance during use, and smooth operation is also a necessary condition for machine tool processing. However, during the operation of such equipment, the presence of a large amount of dust or smoke in the air can cause problems with the use of linear guides. The main reason is that there is a lot of dust on the surface of the wire spool of the linear guide. Therefore, only by promptly removing this dust can the good operation of the linear guide be ensured.
To ensure the good working condition of the linear guide and the quality of the processed workpiece, daily maintenance of the linear guide is necessary. When cleaning, be sure to use a cloth, a dry cloth with good softness, and after cleaning with a dry cloth, apply lubricating oil in a timely manner.
The correct way to clean the linear guide is to move the laser head to the right or left before cleaning. At this point, the linear guide rail will appear in front of us. At this point, we need to repeatedly wipe it with a clean cloth to guide the guide rail to a shiny level. At this point, the prepared lubricant can be evenly applied on the linear guide.
