As a professional agent of FODA bearing manufacturer, PROKEY has profound technical accumulation in the field of linear bearings. Its linear bearings for sale, with unique technological innovations, offer precise and efficient linear motion solutions for various mechanical applications through comparison with other bearings.​

Linear Bearings: Precise Technology Enables Efficient Linear Motion​

The core mission of types of linear bearings is to achieve precise linear motion, which is fundamentally different from traditional rotary bearings such as deep-groove ball bearings. Deep-groove ball bearings are mainly used to achieve rotary motion. Although they can withstand radial and a small amount of axial loads to a certain extent, they are inadequate in scenarios that require high-precision linear displacement. The linear bearings produced by FODA and represented by PROKEY adopt an advanced guide rail and slider structure design. The surface of the guide rail is treated with special hardening, and the hardness can reach above HRC60, which greatly improves the wear resistance and ensures that high precision can still be maintained during long-term use.​

The rolling elements inside the linear guide slider usually use high-precision balls or rollers, combined with an optimized circulation system, which greatly reduces the friction coefficient during bearing linear motion, which can be as low as 0.002-0.004. Compared with traditional sliding linear motion components, the energy consumption is significantly reduced. For example, in the automated production line of 3C product manufacturing, the precise assembly of electronic components requires the robotic arm to be accurately positioned with the error controlled within a very small range. With its high-precision and low-friction characteristics, the linear bearing enables the robotic arm to achieve fast and accurate linear motion in the X, Y, and Z axis directions, and the positioning accuracy can reach ±0.01mm, which cannot be achieved by rotary bearings.​

Comparison with Other Bearing Linear Motion Components: Superior Advantages​

In the field of bearing linear motion, in addition to linear bearings, there are also linear motion components such as linear guides. Traditional linear guides mostly use sliding friction, which has a large friction resistance, resulting in high energy consumption, limited movement speed, and serious wear after long-term use, affecting the equipment's accuracy. The linear bearings of FODA use rolling friction. As mentioned above, the low friction coefficient between the rolling elements and the guide rail makes the bearing linear motion more smooth and efficient. The advantages of linear bearings are more prominent in high-speed operation scenarios.​

Take high-speed sorting equipment as an example. In the express sorting centers of the logistics industry, goods need to be quickly and accurately sorted into different areas in a short time. The linear bearing enables the slide table of the sorting equipment to operate at an extremely high speed, with a speed of up to 5-10m/s, while maintaining stable positioning accuracy. However, traditional sliding linear guides are prone to jamming at such high speeds, and the equipment failure rate will increase significantly due to increased wear. In addition, linear bearings are more convenient in installation and maintenance. Their modular design makes the installation process simple and efficient. During maintenance, only the wear of the rolling elements and the guide rail need to be checked regularly, and replacement is carried out when necessary. Compared with the complex maintenance process of linear guides, a lot of time and cost are saved.​
