Misumi extends range of precision linear shafts

A Misumi product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Mar 12, 2009

Misumi USA, a subsidiary of Misumi Corporation, part of the Misumi Group, has expanded its line of precision linear shafts.

These shafts are components that are frequently utilised in machine building and in the design of industrial automation machinery and systems.

The new line is featured in Misumi's 2009 Catalogue of Mechanical Components for Assembly Automation.

The precision linear shafts are available in a variety of design options.

These include a radial wrench hole drilled at one or both ends (as a low-cost alternative to the wrench flat option now available for many styles) and a precision option with an improved perpendicularity tolerance of 0.03mm for many of the existing offerings.

Further options include: a high-precision piloted shaft with a pilot concentricity tolerance of 0.02mm; both ends stepped and tapped with wrench flat; and both ends tapped and one end stepped with wrench flat.

All of Misumi's induction-hardened standard and precision linear shafts are precision formed, ground and machined to tight concentricity and straightness dimensional tolerances.

The shafts come in standard and configurable sizes and lengths, as well as in a selection of materials/grades (including bearing steel, stainless steel and carbon steel) and surface treatments (such as chrome plating and LTBC plating), depending on the user's specifications and application requirements.

Users can also configure the dimensions of more than 90 different machined end variations.
