Medical device for X-raying entire biological bodies. Rolling bearings from Franke can be used in a wide variety of designs; they are compact, lightweight and efficient.
The main bearing of the computer tomograph is also responsible for ensuring that precise images are delivered. Even at high speeds, it must run quietly and with low vibration. Precise radial and axial run-out must be guaranteed.
Customized, patented Franke whisper bearings with elastomer provide the solution. In addition to smooth running, Franke ball bearings have optimum rotational resistance. Depending on the design and diameter, radial and axial run-out is just a few hundredths of a millimeter. Thanks to its internal elasticity, the rolling bearing is extremely robust even under the toughest operating conditions.
