SL2 Stainless Steel Based Slide System

Product catalog summary
Overview: The SL2 Stainless Steel Based Slide System by Bishop-Wisecarver Corporation is engineered for applications requiring smooth, precise, low friction movement with enhanced corrosion resistance, suitable for demanding environments like food processing and scientific equipment.
System Composition: The SL2 system comprises stainless steel bearing assemblies, flat and spacer slides, and aluminum carriage plates with corrosion-resistant coatings. It is interchangeable with GV3 components and approved for food processing machinery.
Key Features:
  • Hardened and ground slides for durability and smooth operation.
  • Available in lengths up to 4 meters to minimize assembly time.
  • Proven 'V' concept for low friction and rigidity.
  • Cap seals and lubricators for dirt prevention and lubrication.
  • Maintenance-free operation suitable for clean room applications.
Design Options: Offers various design options with three lengths of carriage plates and options for twin or double row bearing assemblies. Can operate dry without lubrication and is available as assembled units or components.
Applications: Used in industries such as cosmetics, food processing, and scientific testing, providing vertical and horizontal guidance, high-speed operation, and suitability for harsh environments.
Technical Data: Includes detailed technical specifications, life/load calculations, and installation guidelines, emphasizing proper alignment and offering customization options.
Conclusion: The SL2 system is a versatile and durable solution for guided motion applications, offering flexibility, ease of installation, and long service life in challenging conditions.
Specifications: Outlines dimensions and configurations for bearing assemblies and slides, specifying minimum spacing requirements for bearing assemblies with cap seals or lubricators. Two stud lengths are available for each bearing assembly size.
Component Compatibility: Emphasizes flexibility in mixing and matching components due to a common 70° angle across assemblies, with tables for standard combinations of bearing assemblies and slides.
Assembled Systems: Details options for assembled systems, including through-hole and blind-hole fixing bearing assemblies, highlighting conditions for each type.
Ordering Information: Provides a comprehensive table for ordering assembled systems, detailing part numbers, carriage lengths, and compatibility with cap seals, lubricators, and bearing options.
Notes and Recommendations: Includes notes on cap seals, reaming holes for bearing assembly mounting, polishing slides post-machining, and using dowel pins for slide straightness.
Data and Dimensions: Provides detailed tables with dimensions for various components, specifying metric fine thread forms and guidance on bearing assembly adjustment and installation.
Technical Specifications and Design Considerations:
Slide Beam Deflection: Considers deflection under load for slide beams as self-supporting structures, providing equations for calculation.
Material and Finish: Slideways made from martensitic stainless steel (AISI 420 series) with a hardness of 52 HRC; bearing assemblies use AISI 440C stainless steel with a hardness of 58-62 HRC.
Assembly and Adjustment: Components should be loosely assembled, adjusted for minimal pre-load, and then fully tightened. An alternative adjustment method is available.
Cap Seal Assembly: Cap seals should be fitted after bearing assembly adjustment, ensuring proper lubrication.
Frictional Resistance: Coefficient of friction without cap seals or lubricators is 0.02.
Maximum Linear Speeds: Lubricated systems can achieve speeds up to 5 meters per second.
Warranty and Support: Offers a three-year limited warranty on Swiss bearings and a one-year warranty on other products, with technical support and custom solutions available.
Product Range: Lists various products and systems offered by Bishop-Wisecarver, including DualVee® Guide Wheels and LoPro® Linear Motion System.
