Don’t risk choosing the wrong linear bearing for your designs

Linear motion component costs are modest compared to the substantial negative impact in time and overall project cost involved with the misapplication of these components. What if you could always get it right the first time? A new white paper examines the features and benefits of bearings, and how your application requirements can help you decide which is the best fit.

Introductory Video on Mechanical Circuit Breakers

Preventing unplanned downtime in industrial processes only gets more important during times of high demand. The cost of gearbox, motor and drive shaft replacement often pales in comparison to that of the lost production after a catastrophic overload. This makes mechanical circuit breaking technology more important than ever.

Hevi-Rail Offers Heavy Lifting With Precision

Hevi-Rail Offers Heavy Lifting With Precision

Engineers tasked with designing heavy-duty lift systems are often looking for bearing systems that are capable of muscling heavy loads (over 1,000 lbs) while still offering a practical dose of precision. Often, to fill this requirement, engineers are quick to choose a classic product like profile rail. This choice is fine, but a closer inspection of alternative products like Hevi-Rail reveals that there are more practical and even superior solutions available in the engineer’s toolbox.
