Our KIS slewing rings offer precise rotation technology to reliably connect two or more parts in your application. They are available in a wide variety of designs. As high load-bearing machine elements, they can safely absorb radial, axial and tilting moment loads with one bearing point and thus significantly reduce the effort required for the design of the adjacent construction. Sealed and lubricated, our slewing rings offer long-term performance even under demanding operating conditions. They are used in the fields of mechanical engineering, automation and robotics, among others. We are happy to work with you to develop the right slewing ring for your specific application requirements.

Spherical plain bearings are machine elements that can be installed immediately and are produced according to a specific standard. Since they are plain bearings, there is sliding contact between the inner and outer ring. Spherical plain bearings are ideal for rotary, tilting and swivelling movements and are insensitive to shocks, impacts and vibrations. This makes them extremely popular for load-bearing and guiding functions. You will find both maintenance-free and maintenance-required spherical plain bearings in our product range. Our maintenance-free spherical plain bearings comply with DIN ISO 12240-1, dimensional series E/G. The sliding pairing consists of a hard chrome/PTFE composite. The bearings themselves are manufactured with the tolerance group CN. These are also available in sealed versions. If you require additional dimensions or unique designs, please let us know in an enquiry form, and we will supply you with the desired product.

The VX4000 is the world's biggest industrial 3D printing system for sand molds. It has a cohesive build space measuring 4,000 x 2,000 x 1,000 mm (LxWxH). This machine can be used to economically produce very large individual molds, a great many small series components or a combination of the two. With its uniquely large volume, the VX4000 maximizes productivity and flexibility. The unique and patented layering process was specially adapted for this printer. Instead of lowering the building platform during the printing process, the print head and coater are raised with each layer. As a result, the machine can bear the enormous weight of the building platform, which can be quickly exchanged via a rail—making it possible to print nearly continuously. Sand can be used as the particulate material. The VX4000's print head system can achieve a resolution of up to 300 dpi. A layer applied in one cycle is 300 µm thick.

Hollow rods and round tubes made of steel are versatile components that are characterized by high strength and longevity. They are used in numerous areas such as construction, mechanical engineering and vehicle manufacturing. These steel components offer excellent load capacity, corrosion resistance and easy machining capabilities. Ideal for load-bearing structures and precise applications.

Our housings and their respective bearings form bearing units which have proven themselves in machines, plant and other equipment. Bearing housings are usually made of cast iron, on request we can deliver housings in cast steel and nodular graphite cast iron. As the bearings are usually lubricated with grease, and this first lubrication holds for quite a while, most housings don’t have re-lubrication holes. There are however, gates or markings present, so that lubrication holes can be fitted if necessary. When re-lubricating, it must be ensured that excess lubricant can escape. The bearing seating points in the housings are usually machined so that the bearings are movable, so they function as floating bearings. Fixed bearings are achieved by inserting fixing rings, if these are listed in the table. Fixing rings must be ordered separately. Housings without fixing rings are delivered as floating bearing models (L) or fixed bearing models (F).

Dirt, moisture, abrasion and high mechanical loads: driving elements in agricultural machinery and the associated mounted implements are subject to severe strain. The bearings used also have to be tailored to these conditions. It is possible to increase the drive systems useful life by selecting the ideal bearings or using customised engineering. Special attention should be paid to the materials and seals. From the tractor the universal workhorse to combine harvesters, field choppers, beet harvesters and the many mounted implements for jobs such as ploughing, harvesting and fertilising, the drive systems for mobile agricultural engineering machines use bearings. These bearings have to operate in more extreme conditions than those used for many other applications.

HEIDENHAIN angle encoders with integral bearing are characterized in particular by very high system accuracy. The integral bearing in the encoders eliminates any effect on measuring accuracy from the bearing of the machine components. The integrated stator coupling in the RCN/RON/ECN series encoders guarantees lowest possible error from the effect of tolerances in the shaft coupling.

A major hallmark of HEIDENHAIN angle encoders is their very high system accuracy. This makes them particularly advantageous in demanding applications for machine tools, measuring machines, telescopes, printing machines, etc. Because the bearing is integrated into the encoder, machine component bearings have no effect on the measuring accuracy.
