摘要：With the development of rolling linear guide manufacturing, improvements of performance and reliability of rolling linear guide products have become the critical technical challenge. One of the key-points lies in the analysis of wear process, in which the crucial step depends on the computation of the wear coefficient. However, little attention has been devoted to the wear coefficient of rolling linear guide. Therefore, in this article, to reflect the actual working condition of rolling linear guide, a novel calculation model for the wear coefficient of rolling linear guide is established first through theoretical analysis. And then, based on a novel loading bench and a friction measuring device, the wear process and wear coefficients of a rolling linear guide (DA45CL) were obtained and analyzed. Further analysis shows that the wear coefficients obtained in this article, which are several orders of magnitude less than the previous empirical values, are more reasonable for the wear analysis of rolling linear guide. The current work provides a new theoretical and experimental method to investigate the wear coefficient for rolling linear guide, which is meaningful for the study of the wear process of rolling linear guide and other rolling components of computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools.
