Sugatsune America’s multi-roller linear guide rail MLGX25-1200S is engineered to work with Sugatsune’s MLGX-25-C-8 roller carriage in industrial systems that require smooth, consistent linear motion, whether mounted horizontally or vertically. The MLGX25-1200S measures 1,200 mm in length and is made from 304-grade stainless steel, making it ideal for applications such as analytical devices, kiosks, and medical equipment.

Each guide rail is 1” (25mm) wide and is ⅜” (9.7 mm) tall, with the MLGX25-1200S measuring 47-¼” (1200 mm) in length. Engineers evaluating alternative sizes and system components can review the complete MLGX Multi-Roller Linear Guide series.

The MLGX25 system incorporates Sugatsune’s Dual-X design. By arranging rollers in this specialized layout, this linear guide delivers over 100 km of durability with loads up to 120 N (27 lb.) in vertical or horizontal directions. It also maintains consistent movement under moment loading, making it ideal for use with motor drives.

The MLGX linear guide delivers medium precision, making it a great value play for applications that don’t require the highest level of precision, such as specialty manufacturing or robotics. Tested for 500,000 cycles, the MLGX-25-C carriage features a preloaded design to eliminate rattle and a Dual-X design that ensures smooth contact throughout the entire run, regardless of the direction the rail is mounted. Multiple guide blocks can be used on a single rail, which are precise enough to run parallel rails for many applications without worrying about binding.

2D and 3D CAD resources are accessible directly from Sugatsune's online library.

FAQs

What operating load can the MLGX25 system support?

The Dual-X design supports operating loads up to 120 N, or approximately 27 lb., in either horizontal or vertical orientations. It also maintains smooth roller translation under offset moment conditions.

Does the MLGX25-1200S include the guide block?

No. The MLGX25-1200S is the 1,200 mm guide rail, while the compatible MLGX-25C-8 guide block is ordered separately.  Can the MLGX25-1200S rail be used with other carriages or guide blocks?

No, the MLGX25-400S rails are hexagonal and designed to accept the wheel designs of the MLGX25-C specifically.
