LM guide SHW also features THK's ball chain, which prevents the balls from coming
into direct contact with each other. This helps to significantly reduce noise,
lubrication requirements, wear and gives the carriage a smooth motion. Together
this gives the LM guide a verylong life.
The carriage types have a low profile design to improve installation in compact
designs and confined spaces. There are numerous lubrication and seal design
options available for the LM guide SSR.
