How Linear Motion Rolling Guides Address Li-ion Battery Manufacturing Challenges




Linear guides are essential for ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments, such as Li-ion battery manufacturing. With the right selection, protection, and lubrication, IKO’s linear motion products are built for trouble-free operation.


IKO’s expertise and wide range of protective accessories enable us to create custom linear guides that meet specific application needs. Our Linear Way and Linear Roller Way motion guides and Crossed Roller Bearings, are available with stainless steel components—ideal for environments where dust-generating greases or rust-prevention oils cannot be used.


Here’s how IKO linear motion guides can be customized for Li-ion battery production:


  • Low-Dust Generation Greases: Perfect for clean environments, these greases combine synthetic oils with a special thickener to minimize dust generation while offering superior rust prevention.

  • Rust-Preventing Surface Treatments: Our black chrome surface treatment on track rails and slide units protects against rust, and a fluorinated resin option further prevents foreign substances from sticking to components.

  • Maintenance-Free Operation: Many of IKO’s linear motion guides feature C-Lube, a self-lubricating system that provides long-lasting, maintenance-free performance, reducing downtime and costs.


Optimize Your Linear Guides for Clean, Safe Battery Manufacturing

In automated Li-ion battery manufacturing for EVs, linear motion components like linear guides must prioritize cleanliness and safety. IKO’s linear roller guides provide precise linear motion, while stainless steel options and protective accessories safeguard sensitive battery elements from the challenges of automated production.
