Design refinements boost performance of self-aligning ball bushing while maintaining their error-correcting nature.

Essentially, a guide wheel is a ball bearing that has a special shaped outer race. The inner and outer races of ball bearings are a framework with a groove for the balls to rest in. Burke explained ...

Brian Burke of Bishop-Wisecarver explains why guide wheels are often used as a component of linear motion systems in automated machinery and why they're considered critical to the dependability of ...
