APPLICATION & DESIGN EXAMPLES

combined roller bearings mounting plate rails

Originally used in fork trucks, combined roller bearings (combi bearings / combination bearings) can be used in a variety of vertical & horizontal linear motion applications. Click on an image for a full explanation & to see full size drawings.

These are just a few of the possible arrangements. There are many systems that can be used to solve a huge variety of HEAVY DUTY LINEAR MOTION requirements. Our technical sales team are always available to offer advice & help you select the correct size of bearings.

The simplest arrangement is with two horizontal rails and four bearings. Mounting plates and flange clamps enable quick assembly.

COMBINED HORIZONTAL / VERTICAL

Combined Roller Bearings were originally designed for fork lift trucks. This application allows 2D movement with combined roller bearings on both the horizontal axis and vertical mast.

HORIZONTAL CANTILEVER
