Abstract: A linear guide device has a guide rail, a guide carriage having a rolling element recirculating channel, at least one endless row of rolling elements circulating in the rolling element recirculating channel and guiding the guide carriage on and along the rail, wherein the rolling element recirculating channel includes a load-bearing channel section and turnaround channel sections which connect the load-bearing channel section and a return channel section with each other, wherein the guide carriage includes substantially in a longitudinal region in the load-bearing channel section and the return channel section, a carriage body, end piece units provided on axially opposed ends of the carriage body, intermediate piece units located between the carriage body and the endpiece units, a groove element provided in the return channel section, which encloses rolling elements located in the return channel section around at least a portion of their circumference, and wherein the groove element is integrally formed in at

Abstract: A linear unit has a substantially rigid housing unit having an engagement slot, a rotor that is received in said housing unit so as to be movable back and forth in a travel direction, the rotor having at least one engagement device which engages the engagement slot in said housing unit in an engagement direction extending substantially orthogonally to the travel direction, the at least one engagement device including not only a contact unit associated with the rotor, but also a strip unit, and means for compensating a position of the strip units relative to the contact unit.

Abstract: A linear motion device has a rod, a traveler which is movably supported with at least one roller body circuit, the traveler including an electrically conductive carrier body; roller bodies braced on the electrically conductive carrier body in a load-transmitting fashion; and at least one electrically non conductive guidance component for the roller bodies, the guidance component being provided with an RFID tag, the RFID tag being accessible from outside.

Abstract: A material measure for a distance measuring system has a base body, a first tape measure with the center line and perforations and secured to the base body, at least one further tape measure substantially identical to the first tape measure and located parallel to the first tape measure, wherein the perforations of the tape measures are located congruently one above the other.
