Applications
ZOTIK-VB linear ball cages are suitable for precision linear guideways, measuring equipment, optical stages, automation systems, semiconductor equipment, and other high-precision motion applications.
Why Choose ZOTIK-VB Linear Ball Cage?
ZOTIK-VB linear ball cages are designed for applications where stable ball positioning, dimensional accuracy, and long service life are important. The stainless steel cage structure provides good rigidity and corrosion resistance, while the four-claw retention design helps keep each ball securely positioned during operation.
The use of Japanese SUJ2 bearing steel balls with HRC 62–65 hardness and SP-grade precision provides good wear resistance and consistent rolling performance. For equipment requiring longer cage lengths, selected models can be customized up to 1,200 mm.
Typical Applications
ZOTIK-VB stainless steel linear ball cages can be used in precision linear guideways, measuring instruments, optical stages, semiconductor equipment, automation mechanisms, inspection systems, and other machinery requiring smooth and accurate linear motion.
