Ball bushings with plastic housing

pb,

Higher load rating, longer life

Bosch Rexroth continues to drive forward the development of durable linear technology. Thanks to an optimized manufacturing process, the segmented ball bushings with plastic cages used in a wide range of industries achieve a load rating that is up to 20 percent higher and a service life that is up to 70 percent longer.

The ball bushings are part of a Rexroth circular guide with associated shaft. The particularly light and short elements enable long working spaces and offer additional sealing options.

Many different application possibilities

Available in sizes 12 to 40, the segmented ball bushings with plastic housings have proven themselves in a wide variety of application scenarios thanks to their high quality, variance and availability. The spectrum ranges from factory automation to the production and packaging of consumer goods and semiconductor manufacturing. Other areas of application include simple handling tasks or feeding systems in machine tools.

In many cases, the increase in the load rating enables a smaller size while maintaining the same requirements. Downsizing reduces system costs, saves installation space and reduces weight.

Other strengths of the ball bushing guideways include their smooth running, low susceptibility to dirt and easy cleaning. In addition, numerous applications benefit from the high degree of freedom in the circumferential direction. Thanks to the self-supporting design, the ball bushing does not have to rest on a surface and can therefore also be used as a column guide, for example.

Easy selection, fast ordering and delivery

The segmented ball bushings with plastic housing are also available as linear sets. Bosch Rexroth ships these components within three working days at the latest, in some cases within 24 hours.

The free Linear Motion Designer (LMD) design tool makes it quick and easy to select the right ball bushing guide. The calculation program guides you intuitively through the design and, if required, transfers the result directly to the online configurator for selecting and ordering the right precision steel shaft. The eTool chain digitally maps the entire engineering process through to ordering - including automatic generation of the production order and provision of the CAD data.
