Now Accepting Orders for the Utility Slide Advanced Wheel Guide: A Smooth Slide Mechanism That Uses Wheels for the Rolling Elements

 THK has begun accepting orders for the Advanced Wheel Guide utility slide, which uses wheels for its rolling components, for the railway and logistics industries.

 The Advanced Wheel Guide is a utility slide composed of an outer member and a carriage with mounted wheels.

 Possessing the aligning function that THK has developed with the LM Guide, it can absorb error present in rough installations and provide long-term, smooth, and stable guiding motion. Additionally, thanks to superior contamination prevention provided by a proprietary scraper, it can even be used in adverse environments.

 While conventional slide rails have seen wide application as sliding elements for medical and office devices, the Advanced Wheel Guide is targeted at the railway and logistics industries. It is projected to see demand for use in rail car doors, automated warehouse racks at distribution centers, and the opening and closing elements of machine tool doors.

 THK will continue to use the technology and expertise it has cultivated as a top machine component manufacturer to provide optimal solutions to the challenges faced by customers in a wide range of fields, including those in the railway and logistics industries.
