Round Shaft Technology - Linear Bearings & Linear Guides (RST)

Round Shaft Technology (RST) utilizes a full selection of precision ground shafting (hardened steel, stainless steel or aluminum) combined with PBC Linear best-in-class linear plane and ball bearing products; such as bearings, sleeve bushings, pillow block housings and support rail assemblies. Also, with PBC Linear’s proven Simplicity self-lubricating technology, our customers can ensure long-term operation in the most challenging motion control environments.

Simplicity® linear plane and linear ball bearings in imperial, ISO metric, and JIS metric sizes
Closed, open, and flanged styles in bearing only and housed assemblies
Selection of shaft materials, length, and configurations

Cam Roller Technology and Roller Bearings (CRT)

Cam Roller Technology uses PBC Linear precision straight rails and a multitude of different sliders and rails to provide high accuracy and high speed linear guidance in an economical solution. Cam Roller Technology is ideally suited for material handling, point-to-point, door frame guidance and automation applications. We also offer linear motion solutions for high load transfer and compact, low profile applications.

Integral-V Linear Guide Technology (IVT)

Integral-V™ is the next-gen linear guide product from PBC Linear. IVT simplifies design, eases assembly and improves performance specs over the traditional methods. Using anodized aluminum extrusions embedded with hardened steel inserts, IVT products eliminate fasteners and reduce mounting pieces by 50%. For streamlined linear guidance with enhanced performance, IVT is the answer.

Gliding Surface Technology -Plain Bearing Linear Motion (GST)

Gliding Surface Technology adapts plane bearing design to create a simple, two-piece configuration of a rail and carriage with a self-lubricating surface. By utilizing plane bearing design, Gliding Surface Technology offers lower profiles, compact sizes, and smooth, quiet linear motion.

Plane bearing design will not catastrophically fail
Vibration dampened offering smooth and quiet linear motion
Long life without lubrication

Profile Rail Technology – Ball-type Linear Guides (PRT)

Available from PBC Linear are the Chieftek-Precision, Inc.,high performance ball-type linear guideways. Equipped with improved features such as stainless steel reinforced end plates, internal eco-lubrication system and overall dust proof design, these new ball-type linear guides offer high speed and repeatable linear motion at extended life performance. The linear guides are Gothic profile designed with 45° contact angle to attain equal load and balance the forces in all directions – providing high load capacity and excellent system stability. PBC ‘s ball type linear guides are available in multiple precision options and a wide selection of sizes to directly match up with the customers application requirements.

· Full range of profile sizes – miniature (3, 5,7, 9, 12, and 15mm) and standard (15, 20, 25, and 30mm)

· Multiple precision options: normal (N),high (H), precise (P), super (SP) and Ultra (U)

· High load and moment capacity

· Internal eco-lubrication system

· Dust proof design

· Stainless Steel Reinforced End plates – enhanced structural design

Telescopic Guide Technology – Precision Linear Motion Drawer Slides (TGT)

PBC Linear’s roller-based Telescopic Guiding Technology uses extremely versatile mechanical components, capable of solving many problems of linear movement for a telescopic drawer slide where it is desired to move a load out from one side of a fixed support and return to that position. Telescopic guiding technology offers the reliable telescopic linear movement so vital to the successful operation of battery racks, tool shelves, packaging systems, and many other industrial applications.

Industrial strength drawer slides in inch and metric lengths
Radial and axial load handling capability
Unique self-aligning capability compensates for assembly or surface alignment errors
Full extension slides offer strokes slightly beyond the overall closed length
