LUBE-S ensures long-lasting, reliable operation of MINIRAIL miniature guideways. Its integrated, replaceable lubricant reservoir extends maintenance-free periods and reduces costs.

It applies the lubricant externally in all orientations directly to the ball recirculation tracks by means of the capillary effect. LUBE-S is integrated into the inside of the carriage and lubricates all ball bearings that are directly under load. LUBE-S ensures lubrication even during short-stroke applications.


The external dimensions of the carriages remain the same. The maximum stroke is therefore not affected.
The LUBE-S oil reservoir contacts the ball bearings at a single point. The pushforces of the carriages are therefore not affected and the smoothness ofthe MINIRAIL system is maintained at a high level.

offers the highest level of reliability for accelerations of up to 300 m/s2 and speeds of up to 5 m/s
Lifetime lubrication refers to a one-time filling of lubricant at the friction points, which does not need to be renewed or replaced throughout the product's lifespan. SCHNEEBERGER has developed and patented the innovative LUBE-S system for this purpose.
LUBE-S provides maintenance-free operation for up to 20,000 km under normal conditions. The lubricant is directly applied to the balls in the load zone without affecting the carriage length or maximum stroke. This significantly reduces maintenance costs and lowers lubricant consumption, making it more environmentally friendly.
LUBE-S is a sophisticated lubricant reservoir that, via capillary action, dispenses lubricant to the balls located in the load zone. The system is fully integrated into the carriage and ensures reliable lubrication even in applications with short strokes.
LUBE-S can be used in almost all applications, but special applications such as vacuum and cleanroom environments are not suitable for the LUBE-S system.
MINIRAIL guideways excel in high precision and durability. Their design ensures high process reliability and allows for speeds of up to 5 m/s and accelerations of up to 300 m/s².
MINIRAIL rails come in standard widths of 7, 9, 12, and 15, as well as wide sizes of 14, 18, 24, and 42. The carriages are available in four lengths: MNNS (short), MNN (standard), MNNL (long), and MNNXL (extra-long).
Yes, MINIRAIL carriages are designed to be fully interchangeable with one another at any time. This unit carriage system simplifies inventory management and significantly reduces maintenance effort.
