Product Overview
Hiwin EGW Series linear guides are engineered for industrial applications requiring superior load capacity and exceptional moment resistance. Featuring a wide rail design and optimized rolling elements, these linear guides deliver unmatched stability and precision in heavy-duty automation, CNC machinery, and large gantry systems. The enhanced structural design ensures reliable performance under extreme conditions, making EGW series the ideal choice for demanding industrial environments.
Key Features & Benefits
The EGW series is designed for applications where a low profile, high stiffness, and high moment load capacity are critical. They are a type of "edge rail" or "side rail" guide, meaning the rail is mounted on its edge, which fundamentally changes its performance characteristics compared to a standard flat rail guide.
Application
The Hiwin EGW series is built for heavy-duty industrial applications requiring maximum stability and load capacity:
Heavy-Cutting Machine Tools:
Large machining centers, boring mills, and milling machines.
Large Gantry Systems:
Gantry-type CNC routers, plasma cutters, and material handling gantries.
Automation & Robotics:
High-load industrial robots, palletizers, and automated transfer lines.
Precision Equipment:
Semiconductor manufacturing equipment, large coordinate measuring machines (CMM).
Material Handling:
Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), high-capacity sliding doors.
