FE simulations of such linear guide system were not reportedbefore in the literature. Beside the full FE model three equivalent contactmodels are presented.

Advantages and disadvantages of the equivalent models arediscussed using as reference a slice of the full model and simulation resultsof static stiffness. The validation of the numerical models is also done usingthe general analytical solution of Hertz.
