Global Linear Guide Market Growth Is Driven By Increasing Its Use In Manufacturing Industries

The linear guide is one of the most important element in machine tools. It helps to move the machine tool or cutting tool along with its predetermined path. It provided smooth linear motion in the functioning of the machine tool. It offers high precision and accuracy. It bears the load and guides the linear motion simultaneously. Linear guides include ball side, balls, return guide, rail, grease fitting, end cap, and side seal. Balls or rollers present in linear guide used for guiding the linear motion. Linear motion bearing can be divided into two types namely ball type and roller type and both can be future categorized into recirculating type and non-recirculating type.

The linear guide has low friction force, that can result in low heat generation, energy saving, and high speed. It maintains higher accuracy for prolong time as it wears less than other alternatives. It is easy to maintain and has a low operating cost. The linear guide provides movement along the X and Y axis. Balls in the linear guide are highly corrosion resistive and have a low friction coefficient.

Increasing use of linear guide in various manufacturing industries is resulting in its high demand in the market. Growing semiconductor and electronics industry is another factor anticipated to fuel demand for the linear guide. Growing adoption of industrial automation and technologies such as robotics for various industrial application are expected to drive the growth of the linear guide market in the next ten years. Moreover, increasing investment for the adoption of automation technology as well as other technologically advanced equipment among end users is a factor anticipated to support growth of the linear guide market in the near future.

By region, the linear guide market is categorized into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and the Middle East and Africa. Growing automotive and other industries sectors in countries such as China and India is resulting in increasing demand for linear guide among end users in the Asia Pacific. Increasing construction and growing automotive industries in countries in the Middle East and Africa is resulting in growth in demand for a linear guide in this region. Brazil in Latin America is anticipated to register high revenue growth in the linear guide market. The market in North America and Europe are anticipated to register average revenue growth in the next ten years.

By type, the linear guide market is categorized into a ball guide, roller guide, and needle guide. By application, the linear guide market is categorized into Wire EDM machines, CNC machines, as well as general machinery, drive linear motion, CNC lathes, large CNC drilling and milling machines, composite machining c linear guide market enter, and suitable for the limited size of the machine guide rail.
