The challenge that machine tool builders face when designing spindles for milling machines and lathes is selecting bearings with the optimal balance of speed, load-carrying capacity, stiffness, and ...

The Automation series is designed for applications requiring straight-line movement and now includes linear bearings in chrome, ceramic-hybrid, and full-ceramic ZrO2 options. The broadened ...

Tapered roller bearings are designed to handle both radial and axial loads. They have a tapered inner raceway (called the cone), a tapered outer raceway (called the cup), and conically shaped tapered ...

Whilst the basic design of a needle roller bearing hasn’t changed a great deal in the last 60 years, continuous developments have resulted in new cage designs that provide five times the service life ...

Properly sized ball and roller bearings are well suited to heavy loads and high speeds. There’s little or no need to be concerned about temperature rises on bearings, at least not under “normal” ...
