Structure and Features

Caged Ball LM Guide Actuator model SKR is a compact actuator that has a inner block consisting of
LM blocks and a ball screw nut integrated inside a U-shaped outer rail.
In addition, this model achieves high speed operation, lower noise and longer-term maintenance-
free operation by using ball cages in the LM Guide units and the Ball Screw unit. (A ball cage is
used only for the LM guide section of models SKR20 and SKR26 and the ball screws are fitted with
QZ lubricators.)
[4-way Equal Load]

Each row of balls is arranged at a contact angle
of 45 so that the rated load on the inner block
is uniform under loads applied to the inner block
45° 45°
in the four directions (radial, reverse radial and
lateral directions). As a result, model SKR can
be used in any mounting orientation.

[High Accuracy]
Since the linear guide section consists of 4 Center of ball rotation
rows of circular-arc grooves that enable balls to
smoothly move even under a preload, a highly
rigid guide with no clearance is achieved. Addi-
tionally, variation in frictional resistance caused
by load fluctuation is minimized, allowing the
system to follow highly accurate feed.
Fig.4 Contact Structure of SKR
[Space Saving]
Due to an integral structure where LM Guide units are placed on both side faces of the inner block
and a Ball Screw unit is placed in the center of the inner block, a highly rigid and highly accurate ac-
tuator with a minimal space is achieved.

Caged Ball Technology
[High Speed]
Model SKR supports a latest high-rotation servomotor (6,000 min-1) by using a ball cage and is ca-
pable of operating at higher speed than the full-ball type model KR.
Models SKR33/55/65 are available in more leads variations to achieve higher speed operation and
high leads are available which was not feasible with the model KR.

[High Lubricity]
Model SKR uses ball cages to eliminate friction between balls and significantly improve torque char-
acteristics. As a result, the torque fluctuation is reduced and superb lubricity is achieved.

[Low Noise, Acceptable Running Sound]

In model SKR, the use of a ball cage in the LM Guide section and Ball Screw section (excluding
models SKR20/26) has eliminated collision noise between the balls. As a result, low noise and ac-
ceptable running sound are achieved.

[Long-term Maintenance-free Operation]

With model SKR, the ball cage effect helps increase grease retention and achieve long-term mainte-
nance-free operation.
[Long service life—3 times]

With model SKR, both the LM Guide unit and the Ball Screw unit have larger basic dynamic load
ratings than the full-ball type model KR, and therefore a longer service lives are achieved.
The rated service life is calculated from the following equation.
LM guide unit Ball screw unit
L=(C/P)3×50 L=(Ca/Fa)3×106
L : Nominal life (km) L : Nominal life (rev)
C : Basic dynamic load rating (N) Ca : Basic dynamic load rating (N)
P : Applied load (N) Fa : Applied axial load (N)
As indicated in the equation above, the greater the basic dynamic load rating, the longer the service
life of both the LM Guide unit and the Ball Screw unit.

 LM Guide Unit
Model SKR is capable of receiving loads in four directions (radial, reverse radial and lateral direc-
tions). Its basic load ratings are equal in all four directions (radial, reverse radial and lateral direc-
tions), and their values are indicated in Table4.
 Ball Screw Unit

Since the inner block is incorporated with a ball screw nut, model SKR is capable of receiving an
axial load. The basic load rating value is indicated in Table4.
 Bearing Unit (Fixed Side)

Since housing A contains an angular bearing, model SKR is capable of receiving an axial load. The
basic load rating value is indicated in Table4.
[Equivalent Load (LM Guide Unit)]

The equivalent load when the LM Guide unit of model SKR simultaneously receives loads in all directions is
obtained from the following equation.
PE = PR (PL) + PT
PE : Equivalent load (N)
: Radial direction
: Reverse radial direction
: Lateral directions
PR : Radial load (N)
PL : Reverse radial load (N)

Static Safety Factor

Caged Ball LM Guide Actuator Model SKR consists of an LM Guide, a Ball Screw and a support
bearing. The static safety factor and the service life of each component can be obtained from the
basic load rating indicated in “Rated load of model SKR” (see Table4A2-12).
[Calculating the Static Safety Factor]

 LM Guide Unit
To calculate a load applied to the LM Guide of model SKR, the average load required for calculating
LM Guide Actuator
the service life and the maximum load needed for calculating the static safety factor must be ob-
tained first. In particular, if the system starts and stops frequently, or if a large moment caused by an
overhung load is applied to the system, it may receive an unexpectedly large load.
When selecting a model number, make sure that the desired model is capable of receiving the re-
quired maximum load (whether stationary or in motion).
C0
fs =
Pmax
fS : Static safety factor
C0 : Basic static load rating (N)
Pmax : Maximum applied load (N)
*The basic static load rating is a static load with a constant direction and magnitude whereby the sum of the permanent de-
formation of the rolling element and that of the raceway on the contact area under the maximum stress is 0.0001 times the
rolling element diameter.
 Ball Screw Unit/Bearing Unit(Fixed Side)

If an unexpected external force is applied in the axial direction as a result of an inertia caused by an
impact or start and stop while model SKR is stationary or operating, it is necessary to take into ac-
count the static safety factor.

Service Life
[LM Guide Unit]

 Nominal Life
The nominal life (L) means the total travel distance that 90% of a group of units of the same LM
Guide model can achieve without flaking (scale-like pieces on the metal surface) after individually
running under the same conditions.
The nominal life of the LM Guide is obtained using the following equation.
fC•C 3
L= 50
fW•PC
L : Nominal life (km) fW : Load factor (see Table8 on A2-21)
C : Basic dynamic load rating (N) fC : Contact factor (see Table9 on A2-22)
PC : Calculated applied load (N)
● If a moment is applied, calculate the equivalent load by multiplying the applied moment by the
equivalent factor indicated in Table10 on A2-22.
Pm = K•M
Pm : Equivalent load (per inner block) (N)
K : Equivalent moment factor
M : Applied moment (N-mm)
(If planning to use the product with a wide inner block span, contact THK.)
If moment Mc is applied to model SKR-B/D
KC•MC
Pm =
2
● If a radial load (P) and a moment are simultaneously applied to model SKR
PE = P m + P
PE : Overall equivalent radial load (N)
Perform a nominal life calculation using the above data.
 Service Life Time

When the nominal life (L) has been obtained, the service life time is obtained using the following
equation (if the stroke length and the number of reciprocations per minute are constant).

L 10
Lh =
2 • ℓS • n1 60

[Ball Screw Unit/Bearing Unit(Fixed Side)]

 Nominal Life
The nominal life (L) means the total travel distance that 90% of a group of units of the same Ball

fC: Contact Factor

If two inner blocks are used in close contact Table9 Contact Factor (fC)
with each other with model SKR-B/D, multiply Block type Contact factor fC
the basic load rating by the corresponding con- Model SKR-B

tact factor indicated in Table9.
fW: Load Factor

In general, machines in reciprocal motion are likely to cause vibration and impact during operation,
and it is particularly difficult to accurately determine each of vibration generated during high-speed
operation, impact applied during repeated starting and stopping in normal use, etc. Therefore, where
the effect of speed vibration is estimated to be significant, divide the basic load rating (C) by an em-
pirically obtained load factor.

Accuracy Standards
The accuracy standard of model SKR is defined in positioning repeatability, positioning accuracy,
running parallelism (vertical direction) and backlash.
[Positioning Repeatability] t1
Command the position to a given arbitrary point.
Measure the position and repeat seven times

duct the same test at three points: the middle of
the stroke, and at both the approximate maxi-
mum and minimum positions of travel. Express
the maximum difference value of the three mea- Fig.8 Positioning Repeatability

Fig.9 Positioning Accuracy
[Running of Parallelism (Vertical direction)]

Place a straightedge on the surface table Straightedge
where model SKR is mounted, measure almost
throughout the travel distance of the inner block
using a test indicator. Use the maximum differ-
ence among the readings within the travel dis-
tance as the running parallelism measurement.

[Backlash] Return
Feed and slightly move the inner block and read Backlash
the measurement on the test indicator as the Feed screw feed
reference value. Subsequently, apply a load to

the inner block from the same direction (table Load
(including elastic displacement)
feed direction), and then release the inner block
from the load. Use the difference between the
reference value and the return as the backlash Fig.11 Backlash
measurement.
Perform this measurement in the center and
near both ends, and use the maximum value as
the measurement value.

Because of its integral-structure inner block consisting of a highly rigid outer rail with a U-shaped
cross section, LM Guide units on both side faces and a Ball Screw unit in the center, LM Guide Ac-
tuator model KR achieves a highly rigid and highly accurate actuator in a minimal space.
In addition, since the housings A and B also serve as support units and the inner block as a table,
this model allows significant reduction of man-hours required for design and assembly, thus contrib-
uting to total cost cutting.

load load
 LM Guide Unit
Model KR is capable of receiving loads in four directions (radial, reverse radial and lateral direc-
tions). Its basic load ratings are equal in all four directions (radial, reverse radial and lateral direc-
tions), and their values are indicated in Table3 on A2-80 and A2-81.
 Ball Screw Unit

Since the inner block is incorporated with a ball screw nut, model KR is capable of receiving an axial
load. The basic load rating value is indicated in Table3 on A2-80 and A2-81.

Since housing A contains an angular bearing, model KR is capable of receiving an axial load.
The basic load rating value is indicated in Table3 on A2-80 and A2-81.
[Equivalent Load (LM Guide Unit)]

The equivalent load when the LM Guide unit of model KR simultaneously receives loads in all direc-
tions is obtained from the following equation.
PE = PR (PL) + PT
PE : Equivalent load (N)
: Radial direction
: Reverse radial direction
: Lateral direction
PR : Radial load (N)
PL : Reverse radial load (N)
PT : Lateral load (N)

KR

LM Guide Actuator Model KR consists of an LM Guide, a Ball Screw and a support bearing. The
static safety factor and the service life of each component can be obtained from the basic load rating
indicated in “Rated load of model KR” (see Table3 on A2-80).

 LM Guide Unit
To calculate a load applied to the LM Guide of model KR, the average load required for calculating

the service life and the maximum load needed for calculating the static safety factor must be ob-
tained first. In particular, if the system starts and stops frequently, or if a large moment caused by an
overhung load is applied to the system, it may receive an unexpectedly large load.

Accuracy Standards
The accuracy standard of model KR is defined in positioning repeatability, positioning accuracy, run-
ning parallelism (vertical direction) and backlash.
[Positioning Repeatability] t1
Command the position to a given arbitrary point.
Measure the position and repeat seven times
from the same direction. Record the difference t2
LM Guide Actuator
between the largest and smallest values. Con-
duct the same test at three points: the middle of t3
the stroke, and at both the approximate maxi-
mum and minimum positions of travel. Express
the maximum difference value of the three mea- Fig.6 Positioning Repeatability
surements divided by 2 with a “” sign.
[Positioning Accuracy] （＋）

Using the maximum stroke as the reference △A
length, express the maximum error between (Error)
the actual distance traveled from the reference A Command value

point and the command value in an absolute A Travel distance
value as positioning accuracy.
A=｜Actual distance traveled - travel distance of
the command value｜
（ー）
Fig.7 Positioning Accuracy
[Running of Parallelism (Vertical direction)]

Place a straightedge on the surface table where Straightedge
model KR is mounted, measure almost through-
out the travel distance of the inner block using
a test indicator. Use the maximum difference
among the readings within the travel distance
as the running parallelism measurement.

the measurement on the test indicator as the
reference value. Subsequently, apply a load to Feed screw feed
the inner block from the same direction (table Load displacement
feed direction), and then release the inner block Load
(including elastic displacement)
from the load. Use the difference between the
reference value and the return as the backlash
measurement.
Perform this measurement in the center and Fig.9 Backlash
near both ends, and use the maximum value as
the measurement value.

Note1) The symbols in the table indicate the housing A and intermediate flange.
Note2) For motor coupling, contact THK.
Note3) Model KR15 has a limit in input torque. The permissible input torque for model KR1501 is 0.051 N-m at a maximum
and that for model KR1502 is 0.103 N-m at a maximum. If the maximum torque of the motor mounted to model KR15
exceeds the permissible input torque, take a safety measure such as setting a torque limit.

Precautions on Use LM Guide Actuator
[Handling]
(1) Do not disassemble the parts. This will result in loss of functionality.
(2) Take care not to drop or strike the parts. Doing so may cause injury or damage. Giving an impact
to it could also cause damage to its function even if the product looks intact.
(3) When handling the product, wear protective gloves, safety shoes, etc., as necessary to ensure
safety.
[Precautions on Use]
(1) Prevent foreign material, such as cutting chips or coolant, from entering the product. Failure to
do so may cause damage.
(2) If the product is used in an environment where cutting chips, coolant, corrosive solvents, water,
etc., may enter the product, use bellows, covers, etc., to prevent them from entering the product.
(3) If foreign material such as cutting chips adheres to the product, replenish the lubricant after
cleaning the product.
(4) The service temperature range of this product is 0 to 40℃ (no freezing or condensation). If you
consider using this product outside the service temperature range, contact THK.
(5) Exceeding the dangerous speed may lead the components to be damaged or cause an accident.
Be sure to use the product within the specification range designated by THK.
(6) Micro-strokes tend to obstruct oil film to form on the raceway in contact with the rolling element,
and may lead to fretting corrosion. Take consideration using grease offering excellent fretting
prevention. It is also recommended that a stroke movement corresponding to the length of the
nut block be made on a regular basis to make sure oil film is formed between the raceway and
rolling element.
(7) Do not use undue force when fitting parts (pin, key, etc.) to the product. This may generate per-
manent deformation on the raceway, leading to loss of functionality.
(8) If the product is operating or in the ready state, never touch a moving part. In addition, do not
enter the operating area of the actuator.
(9) If two or more people are involved in the operation, confirm the procedures such as a sequence,
signs and anomalies in advance, and appoint another person for monitoring the operation.
(10) Insufficient rigidity or accuracy of mounting members causes the bearing load to concentrate on
one point and the bearing performance will drop significantly. Accordingly, give sufficient consid-
eration to the rigidity/accuracy of the housing and base and strength of the fixing bolts.
A2-166
509-1E
Precautions on Use
[Lubrication]
(1) Thoroughly wipe off the anti-rust oil before using the product.
(2) Lubrication is needed to let the models KR/SKR demonstrate their functions fully. Using the
product without sufficient lubrication may increase wear of the rolling elements or shorten the
service life. Note the standard grease used in the product as follows.
Model KR15 THK AFF Grease
Models SKR20, SKR26, KR20, KR26 THK AFA Grease
Models SKR33, SKR46, SKR55, SKR65,
LM Guide Actuator
THK AFB-LF Grease
KR30H, KR33, KR45H, KR46, KR55, KR65
(3) Do not mix different lubricants. Mixing greases using the same type of thickening agent may still
cause adverse interaction between the two greases if they use different additives, etc.
(4) When using the product in locations exposed to constant vibrations or in special environments
such as clean rooms, vacuum and low/high temperature, use the grease appropriate for the
specification/environment.
(5) When adopting oil lubrication method, contact THK.
(6) Because the intervals between greasing vary depending on the conditions of product use, it is
recommended that the greasing interval be determined through an initial inspection. Although
the lubrication interval may vary according to use conditions and the service environment, lubri-
cation should be performed approximately every 100 km in travel distance (three to six months).
Set the final lubrication interval/amount based on the actual machine.
(7) The consistency of grease changes according to the temperature. Take note that the slide resis-
tance of the models KR/SKR also changes as the consistency of grease changes.
(8) After lubrication, the slide resistance of the models KR/SKR may increase due to the agitation
resistance of grease. Be sure to perform a break-in to let the grease spread fully, before operat-
ing the machine.
(9) Excess grease may scatter immediately after lubrication, so wipe off scattered grease as neces-
sary.
(10) The properties of grease deteriorate and its lubrication performance drops over time, so grease
must be checked and added properly according to the use frequency of the machine.
[Storage]
When storing the models KR/SKR, enclose them in a package designated by THK and store them in
a room in a horizontal orientation while avoiding high temperature, low temperature and high humid-
ity.
After the product has been in storage for an extended period of time, lubricant inside may have de-
teriorated, so add new lubricant before use.
[Disposal]
Dispose of the product properly as industrial waste.

Fig.1 Structure of LM Guide Actuator Model KR

Because of its integral-structure inner block consisting of a highly rigid outer rail with a U-shaped
cross section, LM Guide units on both side faces and a Ball Screw unit in the center, the LM Guide
Actuator model SKR/KR achieves a highly rigid and highly accurate actuator in a minimal space.
In addition, since the housings A and B also serve as support units and the inner block as a table,
this model allows significant reduction of man-hours required for design and assembly, thus contrib-
uting to total cost cutting.
By using ball cages in the LM Guide unit and the Ball Screw unit, model SKR achieves higher speed
operation, lower noise, longer-term maintenance-free operation, etc. than the previous model KR (a
ball cage is used only for the LM Guide unit of models SKR20 and SKR26 and their Ball Screw units
are fitted with QZ Lubricator).

When the product travels under a moment, the distribution of load applied to the LM Guide is locally
large (see A1-40). In such cases, calculate the load by multiplying the moment value by the
corresponding moment equivalent factor indicated in A2-22Table10 and A2-90Table9.

Precautions on Use LM Guide Actuator
[Handling]
(1) Do not disassemble the parts. This will result in loss of functionality.
(2) Take care not to drop or strike the parts. Doing so may cause injury or damage. Giving an impact
to it could also cause damage to its function even if the product looks intact.
(3) When handling the product, wear protective gloves, safety shoes, etc., as necessary to ensure
safety.
[Precautions on Use]
(1) Prevent foreign material, such as cutting chips or coolant, from entering the product. Failure to
do so may cause damage.
(2) If the product is used in an environment where cutting chips, coolant, corrosive solvents, water,
etc., may enter the product, use bellows, covers, etc., to prevent them from entering the product.
(3) If foreign material such as cutting chips adheres to the product, replenish the lubricant after
cleaning the product.
(4) The service temperature range of this product is 0 to 40℃ (no freezing or condensation). If you
consider using this product outside the service temperature range, contact THK.
(5) Exceeding the dangerous speed may lead the components to be damaged or cause an accident.
Be sure to use the product within the specification range designated by THK.
(6) Micro-strokes tend to obstruct oil film to form on the raceway in contact with the rolling element,
and may lead to fretting corrosion. Take consideration using grease offering excellent fretting
prevention. It is also recommended that a stroke movement corresponding to the length of the
nut block be made on a regular basis to make sure oil film is formed between the raceway and
rolling element.
(7) Do not use undue force when fitting parts (pin, key, etc.) to the product. This may generate per-
manent deformation on the raceway, leading to loss of functionality.
(8) If the product is operating or in the ready state, never touch a moving part. In addition, do not
enter the operating area of the actuator.
(9) If two or more people are involved in the operation, confirm the procedures such as a sequence,
signs and anomalies in advance, and appoint another person for monitoring the operation.
(10) Insufficient rigidity or accuracy of mounting members causes the bearing load to concentrate on
one point and the bearing performance will drop significantly. Accordingly, give sufficient consid-
eration to the rigidity/accuracy of the housing and base and strength of the fixing bolts.
B2-26
509-1E
Precautions on Use
[Lubrication]
(1) Thoroughly wipe off the anti-rust oil before using the product.
(2) Lubrication is needed to let the models KR/SKR demonstrate their functions fully. Using the
product without sufficient lubrication may increase wear of the rolling elements or shorten the
service life. Note the standard grease used in the product as follows.
Model KR15 THK AFF Grease
Models SKR20, SKR26, KR20, KR26 THK AFA Grease
Models SKR33, SKR46, SKR55, SKR65,
LM Guide Actuator
THK AFB-LF Grease
KR30H, KR33, KR45H, KR46, KR55, KR65
(3) Do not mix different lubricants. Mixing greases using the same type of thickening agent may still
cause adverse interaction between the two greases if they use different additives, etc.
(4) When using the product in locations exposed to constant vibrations or in special environments
such as clean rooms, vacuum and low/high temperature, use the grease appropriate for the
specification/environment.
(5) When adopting oil lubrication method, contact THK.
(6) Because the intervals between greasing vary depending on the conditions of product use, it is
recommended that the greasing interval be determined through an initial inspection. Although
the lubrication interval may vary according to use conditions and the service environment, lubri-
cation should be performed approximately every 100 km in travel distance (three to six months).
Set the final lubrication interval/amount based on the actual machine.
(7) The consistency of grease changes according to the temperature. Take note that the slide resis-
tance of the models KR/SKR also changes as the consistency of grease changes.
(8) After lubrication, the slide resistance of the models KR/SKR may increase due to the agitation
resistance of grease. Be sure to perform a break-in to let the grease spread fully, before operat-
ing the machine.
(9) Excess grease may scatter immediately after lubrication, so wipe off scattered grease as neces-
sary.
(10) The properties of grease deteriorate and its lubrication performance drops over time, so grease
must be checked and added properly according to the use frequency of the machine.
[Storage]
When storing the models KR/SKR, enclose them in a package designated by THK and store them in
a room in a horizontal orientation while avoiding high temperature, low temperature and high humid-
ity.
After the product has been in storage for an extended period of time, lubricant inside may have de-
teriorated, so add new lubricant before use.
[Disposal]
Dispose of the product properly as industrial waste.
