A linear guideway facilitates linear movement using ball bearings. Thanks to the use of ball bearings between the rail and the block, it is possible for a linear guideway to achieve extremely precise linear movement. In comparison with a conventional guide rail, the friction coefficient is only one fiftieth. Due to the restricted guidance of the block on the rail the linear guideway can carry loads in vertical and horizontal directions.
