Roller Guide

A recirculating roller bearing guide is a (profiled) rail guide in which, in contrast to a recirculating ball bearing guide, rollers are used as rolling elements.

Due to the larger contact surface of a roller in contrast to a ball, even higher loads can be moved linearly. In addition, the deflection under load is lower, which makes the guide more rigid. Because of this, it can be used, for example, on high-performance machine tools for heavy-duty cutting.
