Application decision table
| Linear module point | What to send | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Slide and guide rail | Rail size, carriage, mounting direction | Shows load support and space limits. |
| Ball screw drive | Diameter, lead, stroke, nut orientation | Controls speed, thrust, and repeatability. |
| Motor connection | Motor type, coupling, fixed side | Affects end machining and assembly. |
| Production rhythm | Cycle time, duty, quantity | Affects life expectation and batch quotation. |
RFQ checklist
- Linear module type, automation use, slide size, guide rail plan, and mounting direction.
- Stroke, load, speed, repeatability, cycle time, and life expectation.
- Ball screw model, nut type, support unit, motor connection, coupling, and end machining.
- Accuracy, backlash, lubrication, dust condition, inspection report, and photos if needed.
- Quantity, sample plan, batch forecast, packing, destination, and delivery target.
Send us the module layout
Send weimute the linear module layout, slide and guide rail information, motor connection, and target repeatability. Our manufacturing and sales team can check whether the ball screw choice matches the automation cycle time and assembly plan.
FAQ
Can I quote only the ball screw model? You can, but repeatability, cycle time, motor connection, and guide rail layout often change the correct quotation. For how to describe an automation application, see automation application parameters RFQ.
Should the slide and guide rail be included in the RFQ? Yes, because they show installation space, load path, and alignment requirements. For the full custom ball screw RFQ information list, see what information is needed for a custom ball screw RFQ.

When the specification direction is clear, send the details below together with quantity, lead time, and packing requirements.
Include these details
- Model, diameter, lead, accuracy grade, or target application.
- Load, speed, travel, mounting method, and matching rail or support-unit needs.
- Quantity, lead time, packing, and whether inspection records or shipment photos are needed.
