Features and Operation
Crossed rollers provide rigidity and accuracy in a finite-travel guide; the catalog specifies JIS B1506 G2 rollers.
Roller count, rail length, guide layout, load direction and preload must be selected together. Per-roller ratings are not a complete assembly dynamic rating.
External and Mounting Dimensions
Dimensions are in millimetres unless another unit is shown. Letter symbols follow the catalog drawing; do not substitute a drawing thread for a mounting screw.

Compatible Parts and Assembly
The matched replacement cage is LGC6R36. This set uses two cages with 36 rollers in each. A separately ordered cage is a replacement accessory; it is not the complete guide set.
Use LGC6 rails for the selected B arrangement and 450 mm rail length. Equal roller diameter alone does not establish compatibility with another guide family.
For a mixed-length rail assembly, use the shorter rail to select roller count and maximum stroke. This model specifies equal 450 mm nominal rails.
Installation, Lubrication and Use
The rollers alternate at right angles in a non-recirculating cage. Cage travel is one half of table travel; the maximum usable travel depends on the shortest rail and roller count.
Reserve travel below the catalog maximum stroke. High acceleration, unbalanced loading, vertical mounting and vibration can make a cage drift; periodically traverse the full intended stroke to re-centre it.
The factory adjusts the guide as a set. Interchanging rails or cages between sets does not guarantee the original accuracy; inspect and readjust clearance after replacement.
Remove storage anti-rust oil and apply a lubricant suitable for the environment. Do not mix incompatible lubricants; cycle the guide to distribute lubricant and remove excess.
Keep mounting surfaces clean and accurate. Secure the datum rails, insert cages and mating rails, temporarily assemble the table, centre the cages and measure travel before final tightening.
Adjust clearance only within the roller contact range, repeatedly checking the table with a gauge until the movement is stable. A pressure plate or wedge arrangement can increase mounting rigidity.
Lubrication and inspection intervals depend on the operating conditions. The catalog does not give one fixed replenishment interval or a continuous-use temperature rating for every LGC model.
Rail mounting screw: M5X0.8PX20L; recommended tightening torque 6.6 N·m. Clearance-adjusting screw: M5; recommended adjustment torque 0.2 N·m. These are separate operations and torques.
Load Selection and Service Life
For the catalog calculation, the guide static rating Ca0 = R × C0 = 91800 N and allowable load Fa0 = R × F0 = 29160 N. Apply the catalog guide layout and loading diagram; do not multiply these values again by the two cages.
The dynamic rating depends on vertical or lateral loading and the effective roller count. Use the catalog equations for the actual arrangement; a cage replacement does not establish a new assembly load rating.
Static safety factor fs = Ca0 / F: the catalog recommends 1–1.3 for normal operation and 2–3 where shock is present.
Nominal travel life L = [(fT / fw) × (Ca / F)]^(10/3) × 100 km. Life in hours = L × 10^6 / (2 × stroke in mm × cycles per minute × 60). Use the temperature factor fT and service factor fw for the actual conditions.
The service-factor examples are fw = 1–1.2 for very small vibration at speed up to 0.25 m/s and fw = 1.2–1.5 for small vibration above 0.25 and up to 1 m/s. The temperature-derating graph above 100°C is a calculation reference, not a continuous operating-temperature rating.
Weight Reference
Conservative metal-equivalent outer-envelope estimate for the rail set, density assumption 8 g/cm³; openings and running gaps are not deducted. Not an official material specification or measured net mass. Calculation: 2 × 31 × 15 × 450 mm³ × 0.008 g/mm³; rounded upward to 3348 g. Verify the packed weight if the shipment requires an exact transport mass.
