I was wondering if anyone had used linear guides from Misumi for their CNC builds.

I currently have a 36"x52" machine that I built using V-bearings for linear motion. I am going to build a 4'x8' machine and will be using linear rails. I would like to source parts from as few different suppliers as possible and I am considering using Misumi linear guides:

Linear Guides - Heavy Load?MISUMI?Product Specifications

Has anyone used them?
Do they work well for a CNC application?

thanks for the help

I've used their other stuff - pulleys and belts, extrusions, nuts and bolts - and they are excellent quality. I'd contact them for more details, their engineering staff is great as well..

Thanks for the info. I'm glad to hear that their equipment is good quality.

I think I'll take your advice and contact their engineering department.
