Manufacture of bearings - Import export

Cages are used to position and keep the balls distanced from each other at the pitch circle diameter. We offer a variety of different cage architecture and material tailor for each customer application. Cages are constructed of brass, steel, or synthetic materials. Brass and steel cages are manufactured at WIB. We also manufacturing our own tooling and can adapt cage designs to meet the requirements of the application. For certain applications, ball bearings without cages or full complemented bearings are manufactured.

At WIB, we produce all subcomponents, including inner and outer rings, brass and steel cages, as well as the shields to the highest quality standards. Our Performance Bearings are manufactured to ISO, ABMA, DIN, and BS international standards while our Custom Bearings are tailored specific for each application. The Performance Bearing nomenclature is described below.

As the leading manufacturer of linear guide system bearings, WIB works collaboratively with customers on the development of common and tailor designs, supplying the best-in-class technical and commercial solution for each unique application. Each parameter, including environmental factors, precision requirements, speed, temperature, load, boundary dimensions are thoroughly evaluated during the design and development phase.

Double-row angular contact ball bearings are used in applications when heavy radial, thrust or combined loads demand axial rigidity of the shaft are required. This is similar to a duplex pair of single- row bearings due to its two rows of balls and angular-contact construction, which provide greater axial and radial rigidity than can be obtained by using a single-row radial bearing. We manufacture these ball bearings with a minimum bore diameter of 3 mm to a maximum outer diameter of 47 mm.

Although single row radial bearings are designed primarily to support a radial load, they perform relatively well under thrust or combined radial and thrust load with the added advantage of low noise, vibration, and drag torque. The internal architecture and cage selection can be designed to meet the specific needs of the application, from high speed to high load. Thin section deep groove ball bearings have a small radial cross-sectional thickness that are used when compactness is required. We manufacture deep groove ball bearings with a minimum bore diameter of 3 mm to a maximum outer diameter of 47 mm.

MPS Microsystems is specialized in manufacturing high-precision, miniature linear bearings. We offer a comprehensive range of exceptionally smooth bearings with bore diameters from Ø 2 mm to Ø 6 mm. The balls of these precision bearings meet ‘Grade 3’, the highest quality defined by the ISO 3290/DIN 5401 standard. Combined with a cage and a high precision casing, they allow rapid positioning while reducing friction and eliminating the stick-slip effect. The standard version of MPS Microsystems linear bearings consists of a stainless steel bushing and balls, and a brass cage. An all-stainless steel version or one with ceramic balls can be made on request.
