Bearings
Rolling bearings
Rolling bearings support and guide rotating or oscillating machine elements – such as shafts, axles or wheels – and transfer loads between machine components. They provide high precision and low friction and therefore enable high rotational speeds while reducing noise, heat, energy consumption and wear. The two most common types of rolling bearings are ball bearings and roller bearings.
Mounted bearings and housings
The mounted bearings and housings with rolling bearings support a rotating shaft by compensating for misalignment or transmitting loads to surrounding machine structure. They can be bolted on a machine frame or any other substructure.
Slewing bearings
Slewing bearings consist of an inner and outer ring, where one of the two rings generally incorporates a gear. Together with attachment holes in both rings, they enable a quick connection between adjacent machine components.
Super-precision bearings
Super-precision bearings are ideal for machine tools or precision applications where high running accuracy, high-speed performance and high system rigidity are needed. This makes them suitable for a number of different industries.
Plain bearings
Plain bearings with spherical sliding surfaces can accommodate alignment, tilting and/or slewing movements. To meet a wide range of industry and application needs, rod ends, bushings, thrust washers and strips are included in the assortment.
Magnetic bearings
Magnetic bearings and systems are ideal for applications demanding high speeds and low vibration. With no physical contact, there’s no need for lubrication and practically no friction.
Thin section bearings
Thin section bearings are designed to save weight, use less space, reduce friction, increase design flexibility, and provide high running accuracy. They can meet highly demanding and specific requirements making them suitable for several industries.
