Linear Axes HM-S and HT-S
HMS_HTS-01-0-EN-1905-MA
Example lubrication of the linear guideway:
Move the carriage to an arbitrary position.
Apply the nozzle at right angles to a lube point on the side.
Press the nozzle manually against the grease nipple.
Discharge the required quantities of lubricant from the grease gun (see Table 7.1, Table 7.2, Table 7.3 and Table 7.4).
Repeat the process for all lube points on this carriage side.
The linear guideway has been lubricated.
Fig. 7.3
Example lubrication of a linear module HM-S (left) and a linear table (right)
Use only lubricants that are in accordance with DIN 51825, KP2K of the consistency class NGLI2!
NOTE
Ensure that only lubricants without solid lubricant particles (e.g. graphite or MoS
2
) are used!
NOTE
For vertical installation, the relubricant quantity is increased by approx. 50 %.
NOTE
Under special operating conditions (soiling, short stroke, installation type), the lubrication intervals must be
adjusted from case to case.
NOTE
In the linear modules HM-S each lube point features two grease nipples, one each on the left and right of the
carriage. Relubrication can then be introduced on the left or right side of the carriage.
NOTE
The HT-S linear tables have five grease nipples on the right side of the carriage, which are used to lubricate all
four carriages and the ballscrew.
NOTE
7.1.4 Lubrication procedure
7.1.5 HIWIN lubricants
The grease type G04 is recommended for the linear axis. HIWIN can also offer you a suitable grease gun with matching
adapter (see Section 12.15).
