Cross Roller Guide

Confirm model, dimensions, drawing, accuracy or precision requirement, mounting style, application, load direction, quantity, and timing before RFQ review.

Guide Fit Review

Crossed roller guide requests need more than a category name; rail length, travel, mounting, accuracy, and load context matter.

Model

Guide model or old marking

Use photos, old labels, or drawings to avoid routing the wrong guide type.

Travel

Stroke and rail length

Guide-style motion depends on travel, rail length, and table interface.

Mounting

Mounting face and hole pattern

Seating face and hole pattern can change replacement or quote direction.

Application

Load and accuracy need

Linear motion, compact stages, and inspection axes need operating context.

Model or Series Inquiry Parameters

A guide request should show how the rail, table, stroke, and load path work together.

01

Guide evidence

Send model, marking, drawing, or photos of both rails and moving table.

02

Stroke details

Include rail length, travel, table dimensions, and any end-stop or cage notes.

03

Mounting details

Show hole pattern, mounting face, orientation, and adjacent machine interface.

04

Accuracy target

Clarify rigidity, repeatability, preload, and load direction before quote.

Product Family Matrix

Use this page for guide-style linear motion; route rotary, slide, supplier, or custom drawing needs to the right page.

Cross roller bearings Use for compact rotary support with combined loads.
Crossed roller guides Use for guide-style linear travel where rail length and stroke matter.
Cross roller slides Use for compact slide or positioning table requests.
Custom review Use drawing review when a standard guide path cannot be confirmed.

Guide Selection Requirements for RFQ

Crossed roller guide review depends on rail length, travel, mounting face, preload, load direction, rigidity, and repeatability. TFL Bearings needs guide evidence before quotation.

Travel

Rail length, stroke, table size, and cage condition

Separates guide review from rotary bearing or slide review before RFQ.

Preload

Clearance, light preload, or defined preload condition

Changes stiffness, starting torque, heat, and service life before quotation.

Rigidity

Moment load, radial / axial support, and deflection limit

May change series choice, precision level, replacement path, or custom route.

Mounting

Shaft fit, housing support, bolt pattern, and seating face

Mounting distortion can change runout and rotation or linear accuracy.

Speed and lubrication

RPM, duty cycle, lubricant, heat condition, and environment

Can change feasibility before RFQ and should be validated with application context.

Decision table

Guide Application Fit and Operating Limits

Guide requests should describe linear motion behavior, load direction, and mounting sensitivity before TFL Bearings reviews the quote path.

Precision stage Requires travel, repeatability, preload, table size, and mounting face control. Send rail length, stroke, table drawing, and accuracy requirement.
Automation axis Depends on load direction, duty cycle, environment, and installation access. Send machine context, load notes, and guide photos.
Maintenance replacement Old guide codes can be incomplete or hard to read. Send marking photos, measured rail length, stroke, and mounting holes.
Review workflow

Crossed Roller Guide RFQ Review Workflow

TFL Bearings validates guide evidence, travel, mounting, and application conditions before quote preparation.

01

Evidence intake

TFL Bearings checks model evidence, drawing, dimensions, photo, application, and quantity before selecting the review route.

02

Engineering validation

Load direction, preload, rigidity, mounting, accuracy, speed, heat, and environment are reviewed before quote preparation.

03

Quotation decision

Price, lead time, and confirmation notes are prepared only after the candidate route is validated.

RFQ evidence

Guide RFQ Evidence Checklist

Send the guide model, rail length, travel, mounting drawing or photo, load direction, accuracy or preload notes, quantity, and timing.

Send RFQ for Validation
  • Model code, partial code, or bearing marking photo.
  • Bore, OD, width, mounting holes, flange, ring structure, rail length, or stroke as applicable.
  • Drawing, installation photo, CAD reference, sample photo, or measured sketch.
  • Application, load direction, speed, duty cycle, and environment.
  • Preload, torque behavior, rigidity, repeatability, or accuracy requirement.
  • Quantity, timing, destination, inspection need, and contact details.

FAQ

Yes. TFL can review the request when model evidence, dimensions, mounting interface, load direction, application, and quantity are provided before RFQ.

Final RFQ step

Send TFL the guide model, rail length, travel, drawing or photo, application, load direction, quantity, and timing.
