Description
The optical shaft serves as a guide for sliding bearings, enabling linear motion products. It’s characterized by a simplistic design, robust performance, and cost-effective maintenance. The product is made from sturdy, durable materials, precisely machined to the right outer diameter dimensions, roundness, straightness, and surface treatment.
Categories
This product can be classified into five major categories:
- Standard Linear Optical Shaft (SF): This shaft requires a high surface hardness due to its point contact with linear bearings. Material selection and heat treatment methods are crucial for this type. The material is suj2 (equivalent to the national standard gcr15), with a hardness of hrc60±2, a hardened layer depth of 0.8-3mm, surface roughness of ra0.10m-ra0.35m, and a straightness of 70um/1000mm or less.
- Chrome-plated Linear Optical Shaft (SFC): Based on the standard optical shaft, this variant is coated with a layer of hard chrome. It is suitable for use in rust-prone or adverse environments and extensively used in industrial robots and automated sliding systems.
- Chrome-plated Flexible Shaft (RSFC): This chrome-plated shaft is versatile due to its thick chrome layer. It can be used for precision piston rods and paired with self-lubricating bearings. Its hardness and thickness make it applicable in various fields.
- Stainless Steel Shaft: Known for high corrosion resistance, strength, and wear resistance, this shaft maintains efficient performance even in oxidative environments, including water, chemicals, steam, and seawater.
- Chrome-plated Hollow Shaft: This shaft stands out due to its hollow structure, reducing weight and simplifying design. Its interior is suitable for inserting measuring wires, compressed air, or adding lubricating oil, making it ideal for robotic arms.
Material
The choice of material greatly influences the performance, durability, and application of the shaft. They range from suj2 (equivalent to the national standard gcr15) to 45# or 40cr or 2cr13, and even stainless steel (sus404c, sus304).
Applications
The ZLV Optical Shaft finds wide-ranging applications in industrial robots, various electronic devices, guide rods, transmission shafts, and pillars. It’s the best choice for industries such as electronics, packaging, chemical medicine, textile, printing, engineering, transport, steel, mining, hydraulic oil cylinders, cylinders, operating rods, adjustment rods, linear motion, automation devices, light industry, heavy industry, hydraulic and pneumatic, printing and packaging, textile printing and dyeing, die-casting machines, injection molding machines, and sliding devices.
In summary, the ZLV Soft Shaft Hard Shaft 6 Chrome-Plated Rod Optical Shaft is a robust and versatile product with customizable features to cater to a wide variety of industrial applications. Its well-engineered design and material selection ensure optimal performance, reliability, and durability, guaranteeing the best return on your investment.
