Our team of specialists ensures that every client receives the most suitable bearing for their specific application. One of the key industries we support is robotic automation, where precision and performance are essential. In this article, we'll explore the range of precision bearings we offer for robotic systems.

Emerson Bearing’s Precision Bearing Offerings

Super-Precision-BearingsOur range of precision bearings includes several specialized types designed for high-performance applications. Here's an overview of our offerings:

  • Ball screw support bearings: These bearings are ideal for applications requiring high rigidity, high-speed operation, and precise control of axial runout. They are commonly used in high-performance actuators and provide long-lasting durability.
  • Ceramic hybrid ball bearings: Featuring silicon nitride balls between steel rings, these bearings offer superior strength, wear resistance, and temperature tolerance compared to traditional stainless steel bearings. They also eliminate electrical arcing, making them perfect for use in electric motors and other sensitive environments.
  • Super precision angular contact ball bearings: Designed for high-speed and high-tolerance applications, these bearings can handle bidirectional axial loads when used in pairs. They are available in various contact angles and bore sizes, making them versatile for a wide range of robotic systems.
  • Double-row roller bearings: These bearings provide excellent radial stiffness and load capacity, often used in conjunction with angular contact thrust bearings for optimal performance in complex robotic joints.
  • Linear motion bearings: Available in both rolling element and plain configurations, these bearings are essential for precision-controlled motion in automated equipment. They are known for their low friction and high accuracy, making them ideal for industrial and robotic applications.

These precision bearings are widely used in robotics, aerospace, medical devices, and other high-tech fields. Choosing the right ABEC class is crucial to ensure your system operates at peak efficiency and reliability.

Understanding ABEC Classes for Precision Bearings

Super Precision Bearings AnnouncementThe Annular Bearing Engineering Committee (ABEC) sets industry standards for bearing tolerances and dimensional accuracy. Bearings are rated from ABEC 1 to ABEC 9, with higher numbers indicating tighter tolerances and better performance. While most standard bearings are rated ABEC 3, high-precision applications such as robotics and machine tools often require ABEC 7 or 9. Understanding ABEC ratings helps you choose the right bearing for your needs without overspending on unnecessary precision.

Precision Bearings for Robotic Applications

Robotic automation has become a vital part of modern manufacturing, with applications ranging from painting and welding to assembly and inspection. As robots become more advanced, the demand for high-precision bearings continues to grow. These bearings must operate reliably under demanding conditions, offering high speed, accuracy, and durability.

Key bearing types used in robotics include single-row deep groove ball bearings, which are lightweight and efficient, and roller bearings, ideal for heavy-duty tasks. For extreme environments, ceramic hybrid or full ceramic bearings offer enhanced performance and longevity.
