Abstract

A production method produces a precision rail having a raceway region. The material for producing at least one part of the raceway region is deposited onto a component by laser beam build-up welding and/or electron beam build-up welding. The methods results in short processing times being achieved when the precision rails concerned are produced.

Claims (23)

1 . A method for producing a precision rail, which comprises the steps of:

providing a component; and

forming a raceway region, material for producing at least one part of the raceway region being deposited onto the component by laser beam build-up welding and/or electron beam build-up welding.

2 . The method for producing the precision rail according to claim 1 , wherein the material is deposited in one layer or in multiple layers.

3 . The method for producing the precision rail according to claim 1 , wherein the material contains rolling-bearing steel and/or tool steel and/or high-speed steel and/or at least one high-alloy steel and/or 100Cr6 and/or 100CrMnSi6-4 and/or 100CrMo7-3 and/or 100CrMnMo8 and/or 110MnCrTi8 and/or 80MoCrV42-16 and/or X30CrMoN15-1 and/or X2CrNiMol 7-12-2 and/or X45CrSi9-3.

4 . The method for producing the precision rail according to claim 1 , wherein the component is formed at least partially of structural steel, heat-treatable steel and/or cast iron and/or a steel S185 and/or a steel S235 and/or a steel S275 and/or a steel S295 and/or a steel S355 and/or a steel S460 and/or steel C22 and/or nodular cast iron and/or austenitic-ferritic spheroidal-graphite cast iron.

5 . The method for producing the precision rail according to claim 1 , wherein the component is a main body of the precision rail.

6 . The method for producing the precision rail according to claim 1 , wherein the material forms a layer which has a thickness of less than 3 mm.

7 . The method for producing the precision rail according to claim 1 , wherein the material is provided as a wire and/or a strip and/or a powder.

8 . The method for producing the precision rail according to claim 1 , wherein various materials including the material are deposited in one layer or in multiple layers.

9 . The method for producing the precision rail according to claim 1 , wherein the material forms a layer which has a thickness of less than 2 mm.

10 . The method for producing the precision rail according to claim 1 , wherein the component and the raceway region form the precision rail being at least one rail of a precision rail guide.

11 . A method for producing a precision rail guide, which comprises the steps of:

producing a precision rail by the sub-steps of:

providing a component; and

forming a raceway region, material for producing at least one part of the raceway region being deposited onto the component by laser beam build-up welding and/or electron beam build-up welding.

12 . A precision rail for a precision rail guide, the precision rail comprising:

at least one part of a raceway region being formed by a layer; and

a region disposed directly adjacent to said layer, said layer having a higher metallurgical grade than a material of said region disposed directly adjacent to said layer.

13 . A precision rail guide, comprising:

a precision rail, containing:

at least one part of a raceway region being formed by a layer; and

a region disposed directly adjacent to said layer, said layer having a higher metallurgical grade than a material of said region disposed directly adjacent to said layer.
