About Ball Spline For SLF OR SLT Type
Ball Spline for Slf or Slt Type
Ball Spline Unique 40* Angular Contact Design Which Enables the Ball Spline Delivers High Sensitivity and Extreme High Load Carrying Capacity. The Concept Is Optimal for the Application Involve With High Speed, Vibrates, Impacts of Loading and Precise Positioning Requirements. Also When the Ball Spline Is Used to Function as Linear Bushing, the Ball Spline Provides Ten Times Loading Capacity Than the Linear Bushing in the Like Dimensioned but With a Compact Profile. Namely, Durability and Reliablility Is the Reason for Choosing Tbi Ball Spline in Your Application.
Tbi Ballspline Two Different Designs
Slf (Flange Design) and Slt (Non-flange Design). Point of Contacts on the Spline Shaft Is Provided in Two Grooves (180*) (Slf/slt6-20) and Four Grooves (70*) (Slf/slt25-50) Base on the Diameter of the Spline Shaft. Also Tbi Provides Hollow Spline Shaft for Alternative.
- Flange Design Slf Type
- Non-flange Design Slt Type
- Solid Shaft (Standard Type)
- Solid Shaft (Special Type)
- Hollow Shaft H Type
Application
Industrial Machinery, Automation Machinery, Semi-conductor Industries.
Engineered for High-Precision Linear MotionBall Splines of SLF or SLT types offer advanced accuracy and smoothness for high-demand applications. With a precision grade meeting JIS C5/C7 standards, these splines ensure seamless linear and rotational motion, crucial for industries like automation, conveying systems, and robotics. The robust material composition and precision engineering significantly reduce play and vibration, supporting optimal machine performance.
Flexible Design and Application VersatilityChoose from various bore sizes (6 mm to 40 mm), outside diameters (12 mm to 62 mm), and customizable lengths up to 1500 mm. The Ball Spline accommodates direct flange or set screw mounting, fitting seamlessly into diverse machine assemblies. Interchangeable with standard SLF/SLT shafts and available with anti-rust coatings, it meets the demands of a wide range of environments and applications.
Reliable Performance and LongevityEach Ball Spline is pre-lubricated with lithium grease and features contact rubber seals for ingress protection, ensuring continuous, low-maintenance operation. The surface finish of Ra 0.4 m minimizes friction, while the hardened steel construction (HRC 6064) grants excellent durability and load capacity up to 9800 N. Suitable for operation at speeds of 4000 to 10000 rpm, they efficiently handle dynamic operational requirements.
FAQs of Ball Spline For SLF OR SLT Type:
Q: How do I select the correct Ball Spline size for my application?
A: Determine the optimal ball spline by considering your systems required load capacity, bore and outer diameter, and operational speed. Use the provided range (bore size: 640 mm, outside diameter: 1262 mm, load capacity up to 9800 N) and consult the product catalog to match the appropriate specification to your machinery.
Q: What are the primary benefits of using an SLF or SLT type Ball Spline?
A: SLF and SLT Ball Splines deliver high accuracy (JIS C5/C7), smooth linear motion, and excellent load handling due to hardened bearing steel and multi-row ball or roller construction. Additionally, they are pre-lubricated, corrosion resistant, and compatible with standard shafts, enabling versatility and long service life.
Q: When should I consider the anti-rust coating option?
A: The anti-rust coating is recommended when your equipment will be exposed to humid, corrosive, or outdoor environments. This feature significantly extends the splines operating life by protecting against rust and corrosion around the shaft and bearing surfaces.
Q: Where can I use these Ball Splines in an industrial setting?
A: These Ball Splines are ideal for integration into automation equipment, robotics, precision machinery, and conveying systems, where high-precision linear and rotational motion is crucial. They can be directly mounted by flange or set screw for quick installation.
Q: What process is recommended for installing the Ball Spline?
A: Installation is straightforward: align the spline with your applications shaft, use either direct flange mounting or set screws as needed, and ensure secure attachment. The pre-lubricated design reduces initial setup time, making integration fast and reliable.
Q: How is the product maintained during usage?
A: Routine maintenance is minimal, thanks to factory pre-lubrication with lithium grease and effective sealing. For extended heavy-duty operations, periodic inspection and relubrication as per manufacturer guidelines ensure persistent smooth movement.
Q: What is the advantage of the products custom length offering?
A: Custom lengths (up to 1500 mm) allow precise adaptation to different equipment designs, eliminating the need for secondary machining and ensuring the product fits your application perfectly.
