INA, a part of the Schaeffler Group, manufactures a range of linear bearings designed for various linear motion applications. Here are some common types of INA linear bearings:
Linear Ball Bearings (LBB): INA linear ball bearings consist of an outer raceway and a ball cage assembly with recirculating balls. They provide smooth and precise linear motion and are available in closed, open, and adjustable clearance designs. INA offers different series of linear ball bearings to meet various application requirements.
Linear Bushings (LBK): Linear bushings from INA consist of an outer sleeve and an inner part with a linear motion surface. They are available in various designs, including open, closed, and adjustable clearance versions. Linear bushings are suitable for applications requiring compact design and high load-carrying capacity.
Linear Roller Bearings (LRB): INA linear roller bearings use cylindrical rollers instead of balls for linear motion. They offer higher load capacity and rigidity compared to linear ball bearings and are suitable for applications with heavy loads or high speeds.
Guideway Systems: INA guideway systems consist of linear guides and carriages designed for precise and smooth linear motion. They are available in different profile types, such as monorail guidance systems, ball guidance systems, and roller guidance systems, to suit various application requirements.
Shaft Guidance Systems: INA shaft guidance systems include linear shafts and shaft supports designed to provide accurate guidance and support for linear motion components. They are available in different materials, diameters, and lengths to accommodate different application requirements.
Track Roller Guidance Systems: Track roller guidance systems consist of track rollers and guidance systems designed for linear motion on tracks or rails. They are suitable for applications such as conveyor systems, material handling equipment, and linear motion systems in automation.
Miniature Linear Guidance Systems: INA offers miniature linear guidance systems designed for applications requiring compact design and precise linear motion in small spaces. These systems are suitable for applications such as medical devices, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and miniature robotics.
These are some of the main types of INA linear bearings and guidance systems available, each designed to meet specific application requirements and provide reliable and precise linear motion.
