Linear Bearings Reduce Friction, Improve Efficiency

The new WON linear bearings from AutomationDirect are available in a variety of sizes.
Sept. 1, 2021

The WON linear bearings generate lower friction than comparable sliding bearings. With less friction to overcome, less power is required to move a load, higher speeds can be achieved, and greater efficiency is reached. WON linear bearing blocks are available in various sizes to meet the needs of any specialized motion project.

The H series offers four rows of continuously circulating ball bearings and comes in a flanged or rectangular form factor; the compact M and MB series offers two rows and comes in either a rectangular or long rectangular form factor. Linear rail in lengths up to 1,000 mm matches the series of bearing blocks that is selected. All bearing/rail systems provide 4-direction equal load sharing in any direction for lower friction and smooth motion.
