A hydrostatic guideway is a precision guiding device that utilizes external pressure oil to form a load-bearing oil film between moving and stationary parts. Its core advantages include zero or extremely low friction, extremely high motion accuracy and smoothness, high rigidity, long lifespan, high damping, and large and uniform load-bearing capacity. Hydrostatic guideways are typically used in applications requiring extremely high motion accuracy, smoothness, and rigidity, such as ultra-precision machine tools and large or heavy-duty precision machine tools.
A linear encoder is a high-precision measuring element. It achieves nanometer-level resolution and provides real-time, accurate position feedback for precise control. Linear encoders are typically used in CNC machine tools and semiconductor equipment such as lithography machines.
