Maintain cleanliness of the guide rail and its surrounding environment. Even microscopic dust that is invisible to the naked eye can increase wear, vibration, and noise on the guide rail.

During installation, the guide rail must be handled with care and precision. No forceful pressing is allowed, no direct hammering on the guide rail is permitted, and pressure should not be transferred through the rolling elements.

Three, use appropriate and accurate installation tools for the rail, and preferably use tools specifically designed for the application. Avoid using materials like cloth and short fibers.

To prevent rail rust, when handling the silver rail by hand, ensure to thoroughly wash off sweat from your hands and apply mineral oil before operating. Pay extra attention to rust prevention during the rainy and summer seasons.

When in use, a considerable degree of caution is required, as even the high-performance Hiwin linear guides can fail to achieve the expected performance if misused, and are prone to damage. However, under certain specific operating conditions, the guides can achieve a longer lifespan than traditionally calculated, particularly under light loads. These special operating conditions involve effectively separating and restricting surface damage caused by pollutants by an oil film on the rolling surfaces (rails and rolling elements).

Lubrication and Maintenance: Grease lubrication involves pre-filling grease into sealed guide rails and periodically replenishing or replacing the grease within the housing. Additionally, for machinery requiring lubrication at multiple guide rail locations, a centralized lubrication system connected via pipes to each lubrication point is adopted. Grease lubrication can last for extended periods without the need for frequent replenishment, and its sealing mechanism is relatively simple, making it widely used. Oil lubrication is relatively straightforward. Regular lubrication significantly enhances the lifespan of guide rails.
