Effective Strategies

Use the right bearing type for your application (high speed, high load, etc.).

Select the appropriate shaft material and diameter for strength and stiffness.

Ensure proper alignment and lubrication to enhance longevity.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Using undersized bearings for excessive loads.

Inadequate shaft support, leading to deflection and vibration.

Insufficient lubrication, resulting in premature wear and failure.

Getting Started with Linear Bearings and Shafts

Determine the required motion parameters (speed, load, accuracy).

Select the appropriate bearing and shaft type based on those parameters.

Calculate the appropriate shaft diameter and bearing spacing.

Install the bearings and shaft according to the manufacturer's specifications.

Advanced Features

Sealed bearings protect against contaminants and extend lifespan.

Pre-lubricated bearings reduce maintenance requirements.

Anti-backlash bearings eliminate unwanted movement in one direction.
