■Travel Distance
The catalog drawing dimensions are based on a stroke of 0 mm. The distance moved to the left or right from this reference point is the travel distance.
■Load Capacity
Refers to the force that the slide table can withstand when the center of gravity of the workpiece is located at the center of the slide table, measured in N. If the load capacity is exceeded, the slide table may not operate smoothly or may become stuck. When installing the linear motion stage vertically or upside down, the accuracy may be lower than the values indicated in the product catalog. Please be aware.
■Straightness
The maximum deviation from the ideal movement axis (the straight line connecting the start and end points, shown as the red line in the diagram below. The black line represents the actual movement path.) when the slide table moves along its entire stroke. Inspection method: Place the dial indicator on the sliding table, position the pointer against the reference block, move the sliding table through its full stroke, and measure the maximum displacement, which is the straightness.

When installing the slide table onto the base, the slide table surface is generally moved for installation. Please refer to the diagram below.

The above image is for installation example demonstration only. Please refer to each product catalog or 3D data for detailed shape and specifications of the slide table.■ Mounting Orientation

| Installation Orientation | Horizontal | Invert | Side Horizontal | Side Vertical |
| Load Resistant Characteristics | ○ | ○ | △ | △ |
Selectable horizontal, inverted, side horizontal, or side vertical installation. Please pay attention to installations other than the above.
Different installation orientations will significantly affect load capacity and accuracy.
○: Same level load resistance.
△: The approximate standard for horizontal load resistance is about 1/3 of the vertical load resistance. If the product catalog lists the vertical load resistance, it takes precedence.■Vertical Use of X-Axis Slide Table
When using the X-axis slide table vertically, please pay attention to the feed direction and avoid aligning it with the direction of gravity.
When using the micrometer knob type stage, please note that the stage is reset by a tension spring. If a force greater than the spring load is applied, the slide table may drop. In such cases, additional processing can be used as a solution.
| Incorrect Usage | Correct Usage |
| (Normally) If a force exceeding the spring's tensile load is applied, the slide table may slip off due to insufficient load capacity. | After selecting the additional processing for changing the micrometer knob position, the stage surface will not drop even when used vertically. |

Please avoid applying a vertical load that exceeds the load-bearing capacity.Recommended environment: 10–50°C, 20–70% RH (no condensation)
Accuracy guaranteed environment: 22±5°C, 20–70% RH (no condensation)
■ Guiding Mechanism
This slide table uses a linear ball guide as the guiding mechanism
■ Clamping Mechanism
(1) The clamping mechanism of the slide table is fixed by the friction force generated by tightening screws. Therefore, if the external force applied exceeds the friction force of the clamping mechanism, the slide table will move. Please take appropriate measures during use to prevent the slide table surface from moving. If additional clamping is required, you can choose either disc clamping or opposed clamping.
(2) Holding force refers to the amount of force that keeps the slide table surface from moving while clamped. Since the maximum holding force varies with changes in tightening torque, please ensure a sufficiently large safety factor in your design.
■ Feed Mechanism
The shape of the stage equipped with a micrometer knob as shown below is generally referred to as the standard type. You can freely choose based on installation space, installation orientation, and operation method. However, due to the construction of the product, there are some models for which the installation position of the micrometer knob cannot be changed. For details, please refer to the "Additional Processing" section at the bottom of each product page.

■ Flatness of the mounting surface
The upper and lower slide tables may deform due to differences in the flatness of their mounting surfaces. Deformation of the slide table may cause gaps, inability to achieve the specified preload resulting in looseness, or excessive preload leading to poor sliding performance. Therefore, it is recommended to keep the flatness of the mounting surface at around 5 micrometers.

When installing the sliding table on the base, the method of moving the sliding table is basically adopted. See the image below.

| Description | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
| Installation Direction | basic | Ceiling Mount | Side mount | Vertical mounting |
| Load resistance characteristics | ○ | ○ | △ | △ |
Choose from horizontal, inverted, side horizontal or vertical side installation. Caution is required for other installations.
Load resistance and accuracy vary greatly depending on the mounting posture.
○: Same level of load resistance.
△: Approximately 1/3 of the horizontal load resistance is a rough guideline, and the vertical load resistance listed in the product catalog is recommended. ■Using the X-axis slide table vertically
When using the X-axis slide table vertically, be careful with the travel direction not in the same direction as gravity.
When using the micrometer handle type slide, the slide is returned by the tension spring. If a force exceeding the spring load is applied, the slide table may fall.
