Linear motion axis characteristics of metal linear bearings

Jun 17, 2024

Metal linear bearings are a linear motion system produced at low cost and used in conjunction with cylindrical shafts for unlimited strokes.
They are widely used in sliding parts of industrial machinery such as precision machine tools, textile machinery, food packaging machinery, and printing machinery. Linear bearings are a linear motion system used in conjunction with cylindrical shafts for linear strokes.
Since the load-bearing ball is in point contact with the bearing outer sleeve, the steel ball rolls with very little friction resistance, so the linear bearing has low friction and is relatively stable. It does not change with the bearing speed, and can obtain smooth linear motion with high sensitivity and high precision.
Linear bearing consumption also has its limitations. The main one is that the bearing has poor impact load capacity and poor load-bearing capacity. Secondly, linear bearings have large vibration and noise when moving at high speeds.
Linear bearings are widely used in sliding parts of industrial machinery such as precision machine tools, textile machinery, food packaging machinery, and printing machinery. Since the load-bearing ball is in point contact with the bearing, the load is small. The steel ball rotates with very little friction resistance, so that high-precision smooth motion can be obtained.
