The ball sector motor valve type 4037 is suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in accordance with Directive 94/9 EC. This motorized control valve is used in a number of process applications for shutoff and control tasks, especially with abrasive, pasty and fibrous fluids.

The ball sector motor valve type 4030 is used in a number of process applications for shut off and control tasks, especially with abrasive, pasty and fibrous fluids. This series is characterised by an extraordinary rangeability of 300 1 and a high flow capacity.

GMN offers a complete range of sizes, types and designs with its spindle ball bearings in standard sizes S, SM and KH. In conventionally oil-lubricated spindle bearings, lubricant is supplied through a lateral oil supply. GMN spindle bearing designs +A, +AB, +L and +LB provide direct oil supplies to the lubrication point through a bore in the outer ring. GMN spindle bearing designs +AG ensure the highest possible machine running times without complex oil supply systems. These feed the lubricant directly into the lubricating point through holes in the outer ring. The developed high-performance, separable BNT and BHT designs ensure fast and uncomplicated handling, especially with regard to assembly and maintenance.

The use of high-precision radial groove ball bearings is especially recommended when axial forces are supported in two directions, but the installation space makes the use of a spindle bearing pair impossible; plus when the best-possible guide for rotating components is needed, but the RPM requirements are less important. Depending upon the load capability and the installation space available, GMN provides deep groove ball bearings in sizes 60 and 62 as per DIN 625. A large selection of various cages, lubricants and covers make it possible to adapt GMN deep groove ball bearings to any application.

For many applications such as machine tools, medical devices, vacuum and measuring equipment, as well as complex bearing systems, GMN develops and offers special ball bearings which meet our customers’ specified requirements.

Our rod ends in the best quality for you We manufacture rod ends in various designs for you. You can order these in our online shop in the desired dimensions and with individual adjustments. We will also be happy to supply you with other unique designs at short notice on request. Convince yourself of our more than 40 years of experience in plain bearing technology! Rod ends consist of a housing and a built-in spherical plain bearing. The housing of a screwable rod end has an external or internal thread. Rod ends are particularly suitable for use in linkage and lever connections. In our product range, you will find both maintenance-free and maintenance-bound rod ends. Our special hydraulic rod ends are available either for bolting on or for welding on. Our rod ends are suitable for high static loads. The maintenance-required rod ends can withstand changing loads and impact loads permanently without any problems, while maintenance-free models can only do this to a limited extent.

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.

"Ball bearings with a material combination of bearing steel (inner and outer rings) and ceramic (balls) are called ‘hybrid’ ball bearings. All GMN ball bearings can be supplied as hybrid ball bearings. The material characteristics of ceramic balls in hybrid ball bearings result in significant increases in machine performance (in comparison to ball bearings using steel balls), especially under critical conditions.
