Essentially, a guide wheel is a ball bearing that has a special shaped outer race. The inner and outer races of ball bearings are a framework with a groove for the balls to rest in. Burke explained ...

Design refinements boost performance of self-aligning ball bushing while maintaining their error-correcting nature.

Linear bearings are distinguished from radial bearings by their sliding rather than rotary motion. Linear bearings are used in machine tool applications such as sliding doors, 3D printers, and ...

Interactive configurators, real-time data access, RFQ automation, expert-guided product selection and error prevention are ...

The accuracy of motion systems used in precision automation applications is significantly dependent on top-tier positioning stages and motion controllers. When designing a next-generation machine or ...
