The effect of carrier locking position on the dynamic characteristics of gapless miniature linear guideway

Abstract

Abstract The analysis of the load position of the miniature linear guideway is very important for the dynamic friction characteristics of the linear motion equipment. In this paper, a miniature guideway dynamic friction coefficient tester will be designed. And the effect of load position, movement speed, and load on the friction force of linear guideway will be investigated according to the gapless. The experimental results show that the friction force will be dependent on the load position, load, and movement speed. Among them, the lowest frictional load position can be obtained at any speed of movement and load condition, which occurs at the central load position. The main reason for this is that the effect of the moment is minimum. On the same load position and movement speed, then load is proportional to friction. In the case of fixed load and load position, the effect of velocity on friction is positively correlated in the longitudinal offset position. The frictional force is aggravated by the unevenly distributed pressure on the inner ball due to the moment generated by the slider. At the same time, by observing the loading and the inclination angle of the carrier in the experiment with the laser displacement meter, it can be found that the inclination angle also tends to increase when the load increases.
