The Franke Principle for Linear Systems

In a direct drive, the motor and driven component are directly connected. There is no need for intermediate elements for power transmission such as gears, shafts or belts. Changes in motor speed have a direct effect on the driven component in rotary applications. Direct drives are suitable for rotary and linear movements. Torque motors are integrated directly into bearin...

The Wire Race principle enables the construction of extremely compact bearings that fit even the smallest installation spaces and offer a variety of design options. In a specially developed grinding process the race rings get their final shape with raceways precisely adapted to the ball diameter. Thus, the rolling process does not accur directly between rolling elements...

Thanks to their patented technology, Franke wire race bearings offer maximum design freedom without compromising load carrying capacity. The enclosing construction can be realized in a variety of lightweight materials and its geometry can be optimally adapted to the respective application. With our many years of experience in the design of individual bearing solutions, w...
