A machine tool’s sequences of movements are not perfect until you have the right bearing arrangement. For decades now, Schaeffler has been collaborating closely with the manufacturers of machines and systems for a wide variety of industries. This fruitful partnership has produced numerous product developments. The result is invariably tailor-made application solutions that make the machines faster, more precise, and safer – in short, more cost-effective. As always, this directly leads to considerable performance increases and unique selling points for our customers with our “ready-to-fit” products; after all, these compact, ready-to-install bearings are used according to the simple principle: unpack, screw on, use.
In addition to bearing support for subsystems, however, the integration of important functions – such as measuring, sealing, lubricating, braking, etc. – in the components themselves is becoming more and more important for optimizing the complete machine tool system. Our product range provides you with perfect coverage for all machine tool applications:
- Rotary table bearings
- Feed spindle bearings
- Main spindle bearings
- Direct drive solutions
- Linear guidance systems
