High-precision bearings for optronic system

Optronics

High-precision rolling bearings for optronic systems on land, at sea and in the air. For surveillance, observation and target acquisition.

Rotative movement for optics, monitoring and target acquisition.

Franke wire race bearings are based on a special principle. The rolling elements do not move directly on the bearing shells but on tough raceways that are inserted into the bearing housing. This gives you completely new possibilities for the design and choice of materials for your application. Franke wire race bearings can be customised in many ways.

Possibilities
instead of specifications

Franke wire race bearings can be used in a wide variety of constructions. The demands on the surrounding structure are low, as it is not directly exposed to the loads. The main load is borne by the wire race bearing. This means that you are virtually free to determine the ideal shape and material for your further construction.

As individual as your requirements

Wire race bearing technology makes it possible to customise housing parts to the subsequent design. Both in terms of the material used and the design of the mounts and connecting elements. Ball bearings or crossed roller bearings are used for the precise mounting of optical instruments. The open races of the wire race bearing absorb shock and impact loads and equalise housing stresses such as those caused by high temperature differences.
