Rolling guides have a high precision and are able to work almost without clearance. Commonly used for progressive dies, they allow rapid flits without using any lubricants. Often, the film of oil lubricating sliding guides runs-out, transforming the fluid friction into dry friction. In case of short strokes, even forced lubrication may not be a guarantee, […]

Standard guides are built to ensure performance and reliability, thanks to the use of quality materials and controlled production processes. For pillars and bushes we use 20MnCr5 and 16MnCr5, case hardening steels which, properly heat treated and used in the right conditions, guarantee millions of closures to your molds. Sometimes, however, working conditions require different materials and tolerances to increase sliding speed […]
