Why are Lightweight slewing rings, (bearings) rapidly becoming the first choice for design engineers in demanding motion control applications, for example in the aerospace and defense industries?

The HS Series slewing-ring bearings offer high load and thrust capacity for their size. The bearing’s outside diameters range from 20 to 47 in. (500 to 1,200 mm), and feature four-point contact in ...

In applications that require a bearing to support a structure while it rotates (e.g. cranes, radar, tank turrets), premature bearing failure can put people and equipment at risk. While slewing ring ...

Recent advancements in the study of slewing and ball bearings have significantly enhanced our understanding of their dynamic behaviour, load distribution, fatigue life and overall performance. These ...
