This page explains how Guide System is classified within Basic Metal Manufacturing. Technical values and manufacturer relationships are research references; confirm the current specification and supplier evidence for each order.
A mechanical system within a continuous casting mold oscillator that precisely guides and stabilizes the mold's oscillatory motion along predetermined paths.
Technical details and manufacturing context for Guide System
| Parameter | Typical range | Notes & selection driver |
|---|---|---|
| Guide Roller Diameter | 80–200 mm | Determines load capacity and contact stress |
| Guide Roller Width | 40–120 mm | Affects stability and wear distribution |
| Radial Runout | ≤0.02 mm | Critical for oscillation precisionISO 1101 |
| Axial Clearance | 0.05–0.15 mm | Too small causes binding, too large causes play |
| Operating Temperature | 50–150 °C | Above 150°C requires special lubrication |
| Load Capacity | 50–200 kN | Must match mold weight and oscillation forces |
| Lubrication Pressure | 0.3–0.6 MPa | Below 0.3 MPa insufficient lubrication |
| Material Hardness | HRC 58–62 | Ensures wear resistanceASTM E18 |
| Surface Roughness | Ra 0.4–0.8 µm | Affects friction and wearISO 4287 |
| Weight | 150–500 kg | Impacts installation and handling |
Ranges are indicative industry figures for RFQ preparation, not a supplier commitment. Confirm every value and standard with the legal manufacturer before ordering.

CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The Guide System precisely guides and stabilizes the oscillatory motion of the mold in a continuous casting mold oscillator, preventing lateral drift, vibration, or misalignment.
Common materials include alloy steel, hardened steel, and bronze/Babbitt bearings, as listed in the reference data.
Key parameters include guide roller diameter, width, radial runout, axial clearance, operating temperature, load capacity, lubrication pressure, material hardness, surface roughness, and weight. These are reference ranges and must be confirmed for the specific model.
By maintaining consistent mold oscillation parameters, the Guide System ensures stable and precise movement, directly impacting the quality of the cast product.
