Rolling bearings feature especially low friction characteristics, making it possible to reduce bearing friction by half, and offering the construction machinery sector the opportunity to achieve significant carbon dioxide savings without imposing high development costs. Stefan Scharting Schaeffler KG Schweinfurt, Germany Rolling bearings with optimized friction and performance characteristics can have a significant influence when it comes to reducing the power […] The post Friction-re...| Motion Control Tips

Cam followers are critical components in modern automation systems. These specialized rolling elements convert rotary motion into smooth linear or oscillating movement, enabling precision control across a wide variety of automated equipment. As factories and industrial systems become more automated and demand higher throughput, cam followers must perform with greater reliability, minimal maintenance, and superior […] The post The Role of Cam Follower Bearings in Modern Automation Systems ...| IBT Industrial Solutions
Bearings in high-vibration machinery need durability, precision fits, and advanced lubrication systems.| Mechanical Power Inc.
Corrosive environments are some of the harshest operating conditions for industrial equipment. Whether it’s constant washdowns in a car wash, heavy washdowns in meat processing facilities, or chemical vapors in wastewater plants, these settings rapidly degrade standard bearing components. Without the right protection, the result is frequent bearing failure, costly downtime, and safety risks. Fortunately, […] The post Taking on Corrosive Environments: Sealed Bearings Built for Water, Chemi...| IBT Industrial Solutions

Well, the cheap-o linear bearings work! However, they are quite noisy (not unexpected). Unfortunately, I have to print a new set of parts that incorporate the LM8UU holder design to get them to work well with the machine.| Cyrozap's Tech Projects
Today, I bought some linear bearings (against Spacexula's recommendation). I got the 12 el-cheapo LM8UU bearings on ebay for $18 because I figured they might work better than brass bushings. If they don't, $18 isn't a huge loss. I heard there are some small issues with the cheap bearings, but I think I'll be fine. While I wait for the bearings to arrive, I will be cutting the threaded rods down to size and I'll begin assembling the machine.| Cyrozap's Tech Projects
