Flexible arc guides: practice on the right track
Machine manufacturers are required to fulfil increasingly specialised requirements. Yet they are also under pressure in terms of costs.
The solution to this dilemma is multifunctional standard components that also prove themselves in specific applications, such as the HCR circular arc guide by THK.
Precision and repeat accuracy are the key factors by which machine are measured. But the price must also be right. Developers and constructors therefore face the question of how they should prioritise when evaluating components. This decision, which often requires a great deal of compromise, does not need to be made when it comes to circular arc guides, as the HCR circular arc guide by our technology partner THK is a standardised finished part that works with the highest level of accuracy and is versatile in use.
