Linear Bushings

NB linear bushings provide smooth linear motion using the rolling motion of ball bearings. To support a wider range of applications, various sizes and configurations are available. You can find NB linear bushings on transportation equipment, food processing equipment, semiconductor manufacturing equipment and other systems that require smooth, precise motion.

Key benefits of the linear bushings include:

• A space-saving round shaft that allows for smaller component designs, lighter overall weight and other engineering advantages
• A precision-ground raceway surface that minimizes contact with ball elements, reducing friction and providing smoother linear movement
• A double-lip seal that reduces grease leakage while preventing dust and other foreign particles from damaging bushing components
• Seamless compatibility with a wide range of shaft types

When starting any new automation project, In-Position Technologies engineers start by reviewing the key requirements to determine all necessary components needed in an application. This includes providing recommendations for any appropriate controllers, power supplies, sensors, encoders, bearings, couplings, and any other components needed to fit the application. Our engineers perform all necessary engineering assessments to make sure all components perform properly together, are within customer specifications, and do not come with unnecessary costs.

This includes:

• Payload, reach, speed, cycle time, and repeatability requirement
• Specifying the appropriate feedback device (sensors, vision system, torque sensor)
• Verifying mounting compatibility, form factor checks, etc.
• Ensuring compatibility with the current system
• Ensuring all necessary auxiliary equipment are also specified

When ordering Linear Bushings as a part of a full system, IP Tech engineers review the solution to ensure:

• All parts and fittings necessary for a complete working solution are included
• All components have been checked and verified to work together as a system
• The selected components will perform as required by the project specifications
