Way (machine tool element)
text:
A way is a type of linear bearing, specifically a linear plain bearing, in a machine tool. It facilitates precise linear motion along a given axis. A way is ground, scraped, or molded to be very flat, and ways often come in pairs to ensure a flat plane for the carriage or sliding element (slide) to move along smoothly. Ways are usually lubricated with way oil. Ways have been used since the 19th century and are a critical part of manufacturing processes, especially those requiring low tolerances
