Smart machine elements for your efficient construction
Are machine elements Construction componentsthat are not only contained in machines, but rather can be found in every technical construction. Often they are as inconspicuous as they are important at the same time. If, for example, a seal fails, it can have a major impact on the entire machine or system. We'll bring you the latest Machine Elements before how Rolling and plain bearings, Linear Technology, Shock absorbers, shafts, Tools, Springs, seals, Controls and much more.

In 2005, elastic point bearings made from Getzner Synodyn were installed to protect the cinemas in the famous Grandberry Mall in Tokyo from disturbing noise and vibrations. According to long-term measurements, the vibration isolation still works almost unchanged 15 years later. And so, after the temporary closure of the area, Getzner received the order to do that too...

The drive unit for a special vacuum application in semiconductor production consists of an internally toothed stainless steel ball slewing ring with the dimensions 1230 mm x 1091 mm x 27,5 mm including a mounting plate and drive pinion. Rodriguez supplies this assembly from a single source as part of its customer-specific system solutions, Value Added Products.
Machine elements for machines and systems
In the past, machine elements were exclusively mechanical components which, when put together in a construction, resulted in assemblies. Today, the individual components in mechanical engineering do not stop at Industry 4.0. In the mechanical elements more and more electronics or Measurement Technology a. The smart rolling bearing or the profile rail guide with path measurement lead to more intelligence in the machine elements. These are the new features:

Igus also calls it "Slip dry“: The storage of shafts or axles in the Linear Technology and Drive Technology. As with all camps, the principle of action is basically between the two types Sliding and rolling bearings distinguished. While ball bearings are often still preferred as the measure of all things, thanks to innovative high-performance plastics there is an ever-increasing number of applications which Linear bearings speak.

The production of large-sized parts such as the fuselage structures of an aircraft often requires “millimetre work” from the assembly device. The cross tables from Rodriguez help in the production of the Aircraft parts consider Premium Aerotec helping to ensure such precision during assembly. Integrated into the hall floor, the cross tables move the entire assembly station.

If a company uses them to manufacture the components built into its own products, this is probably the best reference. Among other things, all plastic parts that are built into the 3D printers from HM-3D are produced on them. For the high guidance accuracy, durability and light construction of the devices, the manufacturer relies on guidance components from Dr. Tretter or aluminum linear technology.
