Early on, Rollon started manufacturinglinear bearings based on the bearing-cage design. In 1979, the CompactRail self-aligning linear bearings joined the Telescopic Rail industrialdrawer slides and Easy Rail linear bearings and became the basisof the strong foundation on which the company is building upon today.Continuing optimization of these core products still remains one of themost important goals at Rollon. The development of the patented CompactRail linear bearing, which uses different proprietary rail profiles and highprecisionradial ball bearing sliders, enables the compensation of heightand angle mounting defects in applications, and is only one example ofthe continuing efforts to innovative the development of our existing productfamilies. In the same manner, we continually introduce innovativenew product familiesdisplaying our continuing product development andoptimization in the industry. These include:■ 1994 Light Rail - full and partial extension telescopic in lightweightdesign■ 1996 Uniline - belt driven linear actuators■ 2001 Ecoline - economical aluminum linear actuators■ 2002 X-Rail - inexpensive formed steel linear guides■ 2004 Curviline - curved monorail profile rail guide with roller carriages■ 2007 Monorail - miniature sizes and full sizedEach further innovation of our linear bearings is built upon the our extensiveknowledge of the nine product families in production today as well ason the current market demands. Rollon is the ultimate linear technologyfor any application needs.

1 Product explanationFixed bearing rails ( T-rails)Fixed bearing rails are used as the main load bearing in radial and axialforces.Fig. 2Fixed bearing rails ( TR-rails)The TR rail is also available as a custom design. The TR rail is ground onthe back of the rail and one side surface to allow for a closer mating ontothe surface.Fig. 3Floating bearing rails (U-rails)The floating bearing rails are used for load bearing of radial forces and, incombination with the fixed bearing rail or compensation rail, as a supportbearing for occurring moments.Fig. 4Compensation bearing rails (K-rails)The compensation bearing rails are used for the load bearing of radial andaxial forces. Tolerance compensation in two planes can be implementedin combination with the compensating rail.Fig. 5System (T+U-system)The combination of fixed bearing rail and floating bearing rail allows fordeviations in parallelism.Fig. 6System (K+U-system)The combination of compensation rail and floating bearing rail allows fordeviations in parallelism and height offset.Fig. 76 www.rollon.com

Technical data 2Configurations and behavior of the slider under yawing moment M zIndividual slider under load moment M zWhen an overhanging load in an application with a single slider per railcause an M zmoment in one direction, a 4 to 6 roller Compact Rail slideris available These sliders are available in both configuration A and B inregards to the roller arrangement to counter the acting M zmoment. Themoment capacity of these sliders in the Mz-direction varies significantlythrough spacing L 1und L 2in accordance with the direction of rotation of M z.Especially in the use of two parallel rails, for example with a T+U-system,it is extremely important to pay attention to the correct combination of theslider configuration A and B, in order to use the maximum load capacitiesof the slider.The diagrams below illustrate this concept of the A and B configurationfor sliders with 4 and 6 rollers. The maximum allowable M z-moment isidentical in both directions for all 3 and 5 roller sliders.Slider with 4 rollersConfiguration AM zdM zsFL 1L 2FFFFig. 15Slider with 4 rollersConfiguration BM zdFM zsL 1 L 2FFFFig. 16www.rollon.com9

2 Technical dataTwo sliders under load moment M zIf an overhanging load acts in an application with two sliders per rail andthus causes an M z-moment in one direction, there are differing supportreactions with the two sliders. For this reason, an optimal arrangement ofdifferent slider configurations to reach the maximum load capacities mustbe achieved for the application. In practice this means, when using NTE-,NUE- or CS-sliders with 3 or 5 rollers, both sliders are installed rotatedby 180° so that the slider is always loaded on the side with the mostrollers (with NKE-sliders this is not possible due to the different racewaygeometry). For an even number of rollers this has no effect. The CD-sliderwith installation option from above or below cannot be installed due to theposition of the rollers in reference to the installation side therefore they areavailable in the configurations A and B (see fig. 18).CS-slider under load moment M zFCS-slider with 5 rollersnormal installation directionP1P2CS-slider with 5 rollersinstallation direction rotated by 180°Fig. 17CD-slider under load moment M zFCDW43-120 P1Configuration AP1P2CDW43-120Configuration BFig. 1810 www.rollon.com

Technical data 2Representation of slider arrangement for various load casesArrangement DSThis is the recommended arrangement for use of two sliders under M z-moment when using one rail. Also see previous page: Two sliders underload moment M z.DSFig. 19Arrangement DDFor using pairs of guide rails with two sliders each under load moment M z,the second system should be designed in arrangement DD. This results inthe following combination: Guide rail 1 with two sliders in arrangement DSand guide rail 2 with 2 sliders in arrangement DD. This allows even loadand moment distribution between the two parallel rails.DDFig. 20Arrangement DAStandard arrangement if no other information is given. This arrangementis recommended if the load point is located within the two outside pointsof the sliders.DAFig. 21www.rollon.com11

5 Technical instructionsSupported sidesIf a higher system rigidity is required, a support of the rail sides is recommended,which can also be used as the reference surface (see fig. 55).The minimum required support depth can be taken from the adjacenttable (see tab. 25).Rail sizeA[mm]B[mm]18 5 428 8 435 11 543 14 563 18 5Tab. 25Fig. 55T+U-system tolerance compensationAxial deviations in parallelismThis problem occurs fundamentally by insufficient precision in the axialparallelism of the mounting surfaces, which results in an excessive loadon the slider and thus causes drastically reduced service life.The use of fixed bearing and compensating bearing rail ( T+U-system)solves the unique problem of aligning two track, parallel guide systems.By using a T+U-system, the T-rail takes over the motion of the track whilethe U-rail serves as a support bearing and takes only radial forces and M zmoments.Fig. 5642 www.rollon.com

Technical instructions 5T+U-system maximum offsetU-rails have flat parallel raceways that allow free lateral movement of thesliders. The maximum axial offset that can be compensated for in eachslider of the U-rail is made up of the combined values S 1and S 2listed intable 26. Considered from a nominal value B nomas the starting point, S 1indicates the maximum offset into the rail, while S 2represents the maximumoffset towards the outside of the rail.Bmin.-S1Bnom.Bmax.+S 2Fig. 57Slider type S 1[mm]S 2[mm]B min[mm]B nom[mm]B max[mm]NU18 0 1.1 16.5 16.5 17.6CS18 0.3 1.1 14.7 15 16.1NUE28NUE28LCS28CD280 1.3 24 24 25.30.6 1.3 23.3 23.9 25.2CS35 1.3 2.7 28.9 30.2 32.9CD35 1.3 2.7 28.8 30.1 32.8NUE43NUE43L0 2.5 37 37 39.5CS43 1.4 2.5 35.6 37 39.5CD43 1.4 2.5 35.9 37.3 39.8NUE63 0 3.5 50.5 50.5 54CS63 0.4 3.5 49.4 49.8 53.3Tab. 26www.rollon.com43

5 Technical instructionsThe application example in the adjacent drawing (see fig. 59) shows thatthe T+U-system implements a problem-free function of the slider evenwith an angled offset in the mounting surfaces.If the length of the guide rails is known, the maximum allowable angledeviation of the screwed surfaces can be determined using this formula(the slider in the U-rail moves here from the innermost position S 1to outermostposition S 2):αα = arctan S*LS* = Sum of S 1and S 2L = Length of railSFig. 58The following table (tab. 27) contains guidelines for this maximum angledeviation α, achievable with the longest guide rail from one piece.LSizeRail length[mm]Offset S[mm]Angle α[°]18 2000 1.4 0.04028 3200 1.9 0.03435 3600 4 0.063Fig. 5943 3600 3.9 0.06263 3600 3.9 0.062Tab. 27The T+U-system can be designed in different arrangements (see fig. 60).A T-rail accepts the vertical components of load P. A U-rail attached underneaththe component to be guided prevents the vertical panel fromswinging and is used as moment support. In addition a vertical offsetin the structure, as well as possible existing unevenness of the supportsurface, is compensated for.Fig. 6044 www.rollon.com

Technical instructions 5K+U-system tolerance compensationDeviations in parallelism in two planesThe K+U-system, like the T+U-system, can compensate for axial deviationsin parallelism. Additionally, the K+U system has the option of rotatingthe slider in the rail, which will compensate for other deviations inparallelism, e.g. height offset.The unique raceway contour of the K-rail allows the slider a certain rotationaround its longitudinal axis, with the same linear precision as witha T-rail. With the use of a K+U-system, the K-rail accounts for the mainloads and the motion of the track. The U-rail is used as a support bearingand takes only radial forces and M zmoments. The K-rail must always beinstalled so that the radial load of the slider is always supported by at least2 load bearing roller sliders, which lie on the V-shaped raceway (referenceline) of the rail.Fig. 61K-rails and sliders are available in both sizes 43 and 63.The custom NKE-slider may only be used in K-rails and cannot be exchangedwith other Rollon sliders. The maximum allowable rotation angleof the NKE- and NUE-sliders are shown in the following table 28 and figure62. α 1is the maximum rotation angle counterclockwise, α 2is clockwise.Slider type α 1[°]NKE43 and NUE43 2 2α 2[°]NKE63 and NUE63 1 1Tab. 28ααα 1α 1α2α2NKE43NUE43NKENKENKENKEFig. 62www.rollon.com45

5 Technical instructionsK+U-system maximum offsetIt must be noted that the slider in the U-rail will turn during the movementand rotation of the slider in the K-rail to allow an axial offset. During thecombined effect of these movements, you must not exceed the maximumvalues (see tab. 29). If a maximum rotated NUE- slider is observed (2°for size 43 and 1° for size 63), the maximum and minimum position ofthe slider in the U rail results from the values B 0maxand B 0min, which arealready considered by the additional rotation caused axial offset.

If the sameexample as with the T+U-system is observed (see pg. 44, fig. 60), thissolution, in addition to the prevention of vibrations and moments, alsoenables the compensation of larger deviations in parallelism in the verticaldirection, without negative consequences to the guide. This is particularlyimportant for longer strokes as it is more difficult to obtain a correct verticalparallelism.Fig. 65www.rollon.com47

5 Technical instructionsPreloadPreload classesThe factory installed systems, consisting of rails and sliders, are availablein two preload classes:Standard preload K1 means a rail-slider combination with minimum preloadwhich means the rollers are adjusted free of clearance for optimalrunning properties.Usually preload K2 is used for rail-slider systems for increasing the rigidity(see pg. 38ff). When using a system with K2 preload a reduction of theloading capacities and service life must be taken into consideration (seetab. 30).Preload classReduction yK1 -K2 0.1Tab. 30This coefficient y is used in the calculation formula for checking the staticload and lifetime (see pg. 52, fig. 75 and pg. 56, fig. 92).The excess is the difference between the contact lines of the rollers andthe raceways of the rail.Preload classExcess*[mm]Rail typeK1 0.01 allK20.03 T, U...180.04 T, U...280.05 T, U...350.06* Measured on the largest interior dimension between the racewaysT, U, K...43,T, U, K...63Tab. 3148 www.rollon.com

Technical instructions 5External preloadThe unique design of the Compact Rail product family enables applying apartial external preload on selected locations along the entire guide.An external preload can be applied by pressure along the side surfacesof the guide rail according to the drawing below (see fig. 66). This localpreload results in higher rigidity only at the locations where it is necessary(e.g. on reversing points with high dynamic auxiliary forces).This partial preload increases the service life of the linear guide by avoidinga continually increased preload over the entire length of the guide.Also the required drive force of the linear carriage in the non-preloadedareas is reduced.The amount of the externally applied preload is determined using two dialindicators by measuring the deformation of the rail sides. These are deformedby thrust blocks with pressure screws. The external preload must beapplied when the slider is not directly located in the pressure zone.SizeA[mm]18 4028 5535 7543 8063 120Tab. 32Dial indicator for determining the side deformationFig. 66The graph below indicates the value of the equivalent load as a functionof the total deformation of both rail sides.

5 Technical instructionsDrive forceFrictional resistanceThe drive force required for moving the slider is determined by the combinedresistance of the rollers, wipers and seals.The surface machining of the raceways and rollers have a minimal coefficientof friction, which remains almost the same in both the static anddynamic state. The wiper and longitudinal seals are designed for an optimumprotection of the system, without a significant negative influence onthe quality of motion. The overall friction of the Compact Rail also dependsfrom external factors such as lubrication, preload and additional forces.Table 33 below contains the coefficients of friction for each slider type (forCSW and CDW sliders no friction occurs to μ s).Fig. 68Size µ Roller friction µ wWiper friction µ sFriction of longitudinal sealsIn ( m · 1000 )*18 0.003 0.00150.98 · m · 100028 0.00335 0.00543 0.005In ( m · 1000 )*0.06 · m · 1000In ( m · 1000 )*0.15 · m · 100063 0.006* Kilograms must be used for load mTab. 33The values given in Table 33 apply to external loads, which, with sliderswith three rollers, are at least 10 % of the maximum load rating.

5 Technical instructionsService lifeThe dynamic load capacity C is a conventional variable used for calculatingthe service life. This load corresponds to a nominal service life of 100 km.For values of the individual slider see pg. 12ff Load capacities.

5 Technical instructionsLubricationRoller pin lubricationThe bearings inside the Rollers are lubricated for life. Custom lubricationof the roller sliders for use in high temperature environments or in the foodindustry is available upon request. For more information, please contactthe Rollon Application Engineering department.Lubrication of the racewaysProper lubrication during normal conditions:■ reduces friction■ reduces wear■ reduces the load of the contact surfaces through elastic deformations■ reduces running noise■ increases quiet runningTo reach the calculated service life (see pg. 56), a film of lubricant shouldalways be present between the raceway and roller, this also serves toprotect against corrosion of the ground raceways.N-slider lubricationLubrication when using N-slidersNTE-, NUE- and NKE-sliders (except for types NT/NU18) are equipped witha self-lubrication kit for periodic lubrication of the slider.This provides a progressive release of lubricant (see tab. 36) on the racewayduring operation of the slider. The expected service life is up to2 million cycles, depending on the type of application. The zerk fittings(see fig. 94) provide the lubrication.Lubricant Thickening agent Temperature range[°C]Dynamic viscosity[mPas]Mineral oil Lithium soap -30... to +120 < 1000Tab. 367 2,5M6 x 1SW 76,57Fig. 94Replacement of N-slider wiper headSliders NTE, NUE and NKE are equipped with a safety system made oflongitudinal sealing lips and rigid, spring-preloaded, and therefore selfadjusting,wipers on both sides of the head for automatic cleaning of theraceways.

6 Installation instructionsInstallation instructionsFixing holesV-holes with 90° bevelsThe selection of rails with 90° countersunk holes is based on the precisealignment of the threaded holes for installation. Here the complex alignmentof the rail to an external reference is omitted, since the rail alignsduring installation by the self-centering of the countersunk screws on theexisting hole pattern.Fig. 95C-holes with cylindrical counterboreThe cylindrical screw has, as shown, some play in the countersunk fixinghole, so that an optimum alignment of the rail can be achieved duringinstallation (see fig. 96).The area T is the diameter of the possible offset, in which the screw centerpoint can move during the precise alignment.Area TMinimum diameterof the rail holeScrew diameterRail typeArea T[mm]Fig. 96TLC18 - ULC18 ∅ 1.0TLC28 - ULC28 ∅ 1.0TLC35 - ULC35 ∅ 1.5TLC43 - ULC43 - KLC43 ∅ 2.0TLC63 - ULC63 - KLC63 ∅ 1.0Tab. 40The minimum chamfers on the fixing threads are listed on the table below.Example for fixing with Torx ® screws (custom design)SizeChamfer[mm]18 0.5 x 45°28 0.6 x 45°35 0.5 x 45°43 1 x 45°Chamfer63 0.5 x 45°60Tab. 41www.rollon.comFig. 97

Installation instructions 6Adjusting the slidersNormally the linear guides are delivered as a system consisting of rail andadjusted sliders.If rail and slider are delivered separately or if the slider is installed in anotherraceway, the preload must be set again.Setting the preload:(1) Check the cleanliness of the tracks.(2) Insert the slider in the rail (CSW and CDW sliders should be insertedwithout wipers). Slightly loosen the fixing screws of the roller pins (nomarking) to be adjusted.( 3 ) Position the slider on one end of the rail.(4) For the U rails there must be a thin support (e.g. set key) under theends of the slider body to ensure the horizontal alignment of the slider inthe flat raceways.(5) Insert the included special flat wrench from the side between the railand the slider and slip it onto the hexagon of the eccentric pin to beadjusted.(6) By turning the flat key clockwise, the roller to be adjusted is pressedagainst the upper track and the slider is then without play. Avoid a preloadthat is too high. It generates increased wear and reduces the service life.(7) While holding the correct position of the roller pin with the adjustmentkey, the fixing screw can be carefully tightened. The exact tightening torquewill be checked later (see fig. 98 and tab. 42).(8) Move the slider in the rail and check the preload over the entire lengthof the rail. It should move easily and the slider should not have play at anylocation of the rail.(9) For sliders with more than 3 rollers, repeat this process with eacheccentric roller pin. Always start with each roller pin to be adjusted. Makesure that all rollers have even contact to the tracks.(10) Now tighten the fixing screws with the specified tightening torquefrom the table while the flat key holds the angle adjustment of the pin. Aspecial thread in the roller pin secures the set position.(11) Now install the wiper of the CSW- and CDW-sliders and ensure aproper lubrication of the raceways.Slider sizeTighteningtorque [Nm]18 328 735 1243 1263 35Tab. 42Fig. 98www.rollon.com61

6 Installation instructionsInstalling the single railThe T- and K-rails can be installed in two positions relative to the externalforce. For axial loading of the slider (fig. 99. pos. 2), the load capacity isreduced because of the decline in contact area caused by the change inposition. Therefore, the rails should be installed in such a way that the loadon the rollers acts in the radial direction (fig. 99, pos. 1). The number offixing holes in the rail in combination with screws of property class 10.9is dimensioned in accordance with the load capacity values. For criticalapplications with vibrations or higher demand for rigidity, a support of therail (fig. 99, pos. 3) is advantageous.This reduces deformation of the sides and the load on the screws. Theinstallation of a rail with countersunk holes requires an external referencefor alignment. This reference can also be used simultaneously as rail supportif required. All information in this section on alignment of the rails,refers to rails with cylindrical countersunk holes. Rails with countersunkholes self-align using the specified fixing hole pattern (see pg. 60, fig. 95 ).1 2 3Fig. 9962 www.rollon.com

Installation instructions 6Rail installation with reference surface as support(1) Remove unevenness, burrs and dirt from the support surface.(2) Press the rail against the support surface and insert all screws withouttightening them.(3) Start tightening the fixing screws to the specified torque on one end ofthe rail while continuing to hold pressure on the rail against the supportsurface.Screw typeTighteningtorque [Nm]M4 (T..., U... 18) 3M5 (T..., U... 28) 9M6 (T..., U... 35) 12M8 (T..., U..., K... 43) 22M8 (T..., U..., K... 63) 35Tab. 43Fig. 100Fig. 101www.rollon.com63

Now position the slider in the center of the rail and setthe dial indicator to zero. Move the slider back and forth between eachtwo hole spacings and carefully align the rail. Fasten the three centerscrews of this area now with the the specified tightening torque, see pg.fig. 103(3) Now position the slider on one end of the rail and carefully alignthe rail to zero on the dial indicator.Fig. 103(4) Begin to tighten the screws as specified while moving the slider togetherwith the dial indicator. Make sure that it does not show any significantdeflection. Repeat this procedure from the other end of the rail.Fig. 10464 www.rollon.com

Installation instructions 6Parallel installation of two railsIf two T-rails or a T+U-system are installed, the height difference of the tworails must not exceed a certain value (obtainable from the table below) inorder to ensure proper guiding. These maximum values result from the maximumallowable twisting angle of the rollers in the raceways (see tab. 44).These values account for a load capacity reduction of 30% on the T-railand must absolutely be maintained in every case.αbaFig. 105Sizeα18 1 mrad (0.057°)28 2.5 mrad (0.143°)35 2.6 mrad (0.149°)43 3 mrad (0.171°)63 5 mrad (0.286°)Tab. 44Example:NTE43: if a = 500 mm; b= a*tanα = 1.5 mmWhen using two T-rails, the maximum parallelism deviation must not beexceeded (see tab. 45).

Installation instructions 6Installation of the T+U- or the K+U-systemWhen using a two-track parallel linear guide we recommend the use of afixed bearing / compensating bearing system: The combination of T+Urailsfor compensation of deviations in parallelism or the K+U-system tocompensate for deviations in parallelism in two planes.Installation steps(1) For a fixed bearing / compensating bearing system the fixed bearingrail is always installed first. This is then used as a reference for the compensatingbearing rail.Then proceed as described in the section on installation of a single rail(see pg. 62ff).(2) Install the compensating bearing rail and only tighten the fixing screwsslightly.(3) Insert the sliders in the rails and install the element to be moved,without tightening its screws.(4) Insert the element in the center of the rails and tighten it with thecorrect tightening torque (see pg. 61, tab. 42 ).Fig. 110(5) Tighten the center rail fixing screws to the specified torque(see fig. 111).Fig. 111(6) Move the element to one end of the rail and start tightening the rest ofthe screws in the direction away from the slider.Fig. 112www.rollon.com67

6 Installation instructionsInstallation of joined railsAfter the fixing holes for the rails are made in the load-bearing structure,the joined rails can be installed according to the following procedure:(1) Fix the individual rails on the mounting surface by tightening all screwsexcept for each last one on the rail joint.(2) Install the end fixing screws without tightening them (see fig. 115).AAAFig. 115(3) Place the alignment fixture on the rail joint and tighten both set screwsuniformly, until the raceways are aligned (see fig. 116).(4) After the previous step (3) it must be checked if both rail backs lieevenly on the mounting surface. If a gap has formed there, this must beshimmed.Fig. 116(5) The bottom of the rails should be supported in the area of the transition.Here a possible existing gap must be looked for, which must be closedif necessary for correct support of the rail ends by shims.Fig. 117(6) Insert the key through the holes in the alignment fixture and tighten thescrews on the rail ends.(7) For rails with 90° countersunk holes, tighten the remaining screwsstarting from the rail joint in the direction of the rail center.
