Construction components: News about all kinds of machine elements

Construction components make Machine Elementsthat are built into technical constructions such as systems, machines, devices. If you are looking for the latest technology for Rotary table, spring, machine frame, standard part, brush, seal, handle, CNC component you are right here. Here you can find practically all construction components except Linear Technology, Plain bearings, roller bearings, Shock absorbers and Tools. We have separate sections for these.

Brand new construction components

You can find new developments of all other machine elements here - Optimize your construction and reduce your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)!


Spacer made of bio-based plastic

NSK KGT spacerNSK presents a world first with the spacer element for ball screws made of 100% bio-based Plastic. Compared to a spacer element made of fossil plastic, the CO2-Footprint by 90% reduced over the entire life cycle. The developers have the bio-based high-performance for thispolyamide Ecopaxx selected by DSM. 


CO2 footprint of seals down to the gram

Freudenberg CO2As a manufacturer of low-friction seals Freudenberg Sealing Technologies live up to their responsibility for climate protection. To this end, the company has developed a method that can be used to determine the CO2 footprint from the manufacture of seals and other components.


tretter104171Dr. Tretter offers a wide range of standardBall Transfer Unitswith which users can effortlessly move loads of different weights and thus ensure a smooth flow of materials. From a certain number of items, the manufacturer also supplies solutions according to customer specifications. New to the range are the “Air Cargo” series ball transfer units (photo), which are significantly lighter and more resilient than competing products.

ace10218Four years of training for a competition, four years to optimize automatisms for one big goal: the Olympics. Starting processes are essential. Because a successful start often determines success and failure. With ski cross and ski jumping, two spectacular sports are currently at the start of the Olympic Games in Pyeongchang. In both disciplines, solutions from ACE shock absorbers are used at German and Austrian Olympic bases for start training.

skf10318What normally happens in dry dock, SKF and the underwater repair specialist Trident Group recently dared to do in the “wet element”: For the first time, this team of experts installed a swiveling fin stabilizer of the “Type S” on a floating ship. Thanks to the successful action, the affected crusader was able to continue his journey through the Atlantic as planned.

kipp10818 Control panels, special solutions are increasingly in demand. The Heinrich Kipp factory follows this trend with the new 3D configurator, which enables an individual design of control panels. Specific values ​​are easily entered online. Production then takes place with the 3D printer.

ace10919Where fast driving, good braking is necessary. Nowadays, users of linear drives can look forward to a wide range of components and system solutions: Hydraulic damping elements such as Miniature Shock Absorbers are suitable for more sophisticated solutions, while cheaper products such as damper fulfill simpler tasks. There are solutions for practically all applications and every budget that allow even the fastest processes to run smoothly. Two practical examples of the ACE Shock GmbH make this clear.

ace11019The number of online shops and thus the volume of parcels and parcels is increasing. In 2018 there were 330 million deliveries in Germany at Christmas, according to the Federal Association of Parcel and Express Logistics. Sorting systems have to cope with such quantities and above all with peak times. The sorters run at high speeds and must not lose any packages. The new high-end system from Equinox does this with miniature shock absorbers from ACE shock absorbers.

safety shock absorberssafety shock absorbers from ACE Shock helped that Wieland-Werke in optimizing their scabies sorting, If metal falls on steel, even massive discharge funnels can be destroyed. Since the effects on the overall design of the sorting system were stronger than previously assumed, the leading specialist in the copper processing ACE shock absorbers brought into the boat. With the installation of the Tube Safety damper the problem was quickly resolved. As a result, people are happy about much longer maintenance intervals today.

TU Wien0415The storage of rotating shafts is sometimes a challenge in a wide variety of applications. Increasing efficiency by minimizing friction and wear losses is becoming ever more important, with roller and ball bearings increasingly no longer meeting the increasing requirements. Magnetic bearings are usually the best choice for such requirements. The Vienna University of Technology is now presenting a sensorless magnetic bearing.

kitz0819The new, flexible "Versaflex" workpiece carrier system from Maschinenbau Kitz rounds off the MK portfolio for workpiece carrier transport with immediate effect. The proven systems based on Timing belts, accumulation roller chains, chains and flat plate conveyors are now being expanded with a single-track and lightweight flat-top conveyor system, also known as a plastic chain conveyor.

Ruland has a wide selection vibration and rubber buffers in the portfolio for vibration damping, reduction of shock loads and noise and to increase the service life of machines. These cylindrical parts are suitable for applications in the Foodprocessing, packaging industry, materials handling and other industries.

raeder birdHigh loads, sensitive floor coverings, extreme operating temperatures or electrostatic charging require individually adapted rollers. With more than ten different wheel materials, wheel diameters from 125 to 300 mm, several locking variants and other accessories, the swivel and fixed castors of the wheel-Vogel modular system can be adapted very well to the operating conditions.

blickle0416Blickle has launched a new series of heavy-duty leveling castors. Users can use it to move and position machines and other large devices easily and safely. In addition to a high load capacity, the double castors offer a stable stand and a height that can be leveled for particularly precise applications.
