Here are a few general comments that may be helpful:
- HIWIN is a very respected manufacturer of a broad range of motion products. Its world headquarters is in Taiwan and USA operations are centered in the Chicago area with additional regional sales offices. HIWIN products are distributed worldwide and are found in countless OEM applications.
The AG and LG products we offer here are what are sometimes referred to as HIWIN's "Legacy" line. A few years back, HIWIN superseded the AG and LG with new products (EG and HG). The AG and LG are WORKHORSE products that are precise and durable.
- In early 2008, Automation Overstock purchased the entire remaining USA factory inventory of AG and LG products. It took five tractor trailer loads to move it to our warehouse.
- Unless noted otherwise, all of the HIWIN material we have for sale is NEW OLD STOCK (NOS). It is first-quality and in original factory packaging.
- There are basically TWO PRODUCT lines for you to consider...with a great variety within in each. These two lines are the AG (medium duty) line and the LG (heavy duty) line. Information and links shown above should prove helpful. For the ultimate guide, download the entire linear guideway technical catalog (PDF, 79 pgs., 1.37mb).
- Cross-reference HIWIN to other manufacturers' products.
