The part number can be found on the side one of the UniSlide assembly.
For troubleshooting guides visit the Troubleshooting Page and select your product from the dropdown.
Velmex XY Tables are made of two identical Velmex world renown UniSlide® linear stages mounted in XY. The pre-configured Tables also have a much larger payload plate and base plate.
Yes. Velmex Manually-operated XY Tables are standard with the W1 lead screw. Other lead screws are available as an option. Motorized XY Tables are available with most of Velmex’s standard and precision accuracy lead screws.
All of Velmex UniSlide®, BiSlide® and XSlide™ linear stages can be combined to make different size XY Tables to fit most any requirement. Thousands of different combinations are possible.
Lubrication is important for motion systems or wherever you want maximum life and the lowest friction. UniSlide Assemblies can be lubricated with Velmex Lubriplate Aero®. Only a few drops are required to keep your slide running smoothly. The load and hours of use effect the amount and frequency of lubrication. See the user guide that came with your UniSlide for recommendations.
