Technical details and manufacturing context for Cross Slide
| Parameter | Typical range | Notes & selection driver |
|---|---|---|
| Slide Width | 200–600 mm | Determines load capacity and mounting compatibility. |
| Slide Length | 300–1200 mm | Affects travel range and stability. |
| Travel Stroke | 100–800 mm | Maximum horizontal movement distance. |
| Max Load Capacity | 500–5000 kg | Static load rating; dynamic loads reduce capacity. |
| Positioning Accuracy | ±0.01–±0.05 mm | Critical for precision machining applications.ISO 230-2 |
| Repeatability | ±0.005–±0.02 mm | Consistency of positioning over multiple cycles.ISO 230-2 |
| Max Speed | 10–60 m/min | Higher speeds may require lubrication and cooling. |
| Operating Temperature | -10–60 °C | Outside range may affect lubricant and seals. |
| Material Grade | HT250–QT500 | Ductile iron for higher strength and toughness.GB/T 1348 |
| Weight | 50–500 kg | Affects machine inertia and foundation requirements. |

CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
According to the directory, cross slides are commonly made from cast iron or steel alloy. Material grades may range from HT250 to QT500 as per GB/T 1348, but you should confirm the specific grade with the manufacturer.
The directory lists positioning accuracy in the range of ±0.01 to ±0.05 mm, referenced to ISO 230-2. Repeatability is typically ±0.005 to ±0.02 mm. These are reference ranges; actual values depend on the model and must be verified with the supplier.
Consider the required slide width (200–600 mm), length (300–1200 mm), travel stroke (100–800 mm), and maximum load capacity (500–5000 kg). Also evaluate accuracy, speed, and environmental conditions. Always confirm with the manufacturer for your specific application.
Regular lubrication of the screw and slideways is essential. Inspect for wear on the ways and gibs, and adjust as needed. Watch for signs of failure such as increased backlash, loss of accuracy, or unusual noise. Follow the manufacturer's maintenance guidelines.
