The Pods are attached to a Pod elevator that allows […]
Amacoil/Uhing Improves RS Linear Drives
Amacoil/Uhing model RS linear drives are now available with five linear pitch settings and adjustable axial thrust. This permits varying pitch/thrust combinations until optimum settings are achieved. Optimizing pitch and thrust settings results in very smooth linear movement making the drives ideal for metrology applications and other linear motion processes requiring backlash-free, smooth movement. Turning […]
Ultra-low Profile Roller Guides
The RB series of ultra-low profile roller guides from NSK Precision America are designed to meet the rigorous demands of the machine tool industry. Compared with NSK’s conventional RA series roller guides, the series offers a 26% reduction in overall height, which helps downscale equipment and lower the center of gravity of precision/positioning tables. Optimizing […]

Mini Polymer Bearing
The iglubal spherical bearing line includes a mini plain bearing. The self-aligning bearing is light and compact, requires no lubrication, is simple to install, and adapts to all angular misalignments. The housing and spherical ball liner absorb vibrations differently than steel: the rotational, swiveling and oscillating movements of the self supporting shaft take place within the spherical cap, which has a dampening effect. Its […]
