Description

The orthogonal arrangement of rollers forms a symmetrical contact line, evenly distributing radial, axial, and moment loads. The integral design of inner and outer rings reduces cumulative assembly errors and enhances system rigidity. Performance Features: Ultra-thin Cross-section: With a minimum cross-section height of 8mm, it suits the space constraints of micro devices. Low Friction: The roller end faces are precisely polished (Ra≤0.1μm), reducing energy consumption. Long Service Life: Surface hardening treatment of GCr15 material increases fatigue resistance by 30%. Customization Options: Support hybrid designs with ceramic rollers, non-standard sizes, and special lubricants for vacuum environments.
CRBH Cross Roller Bearings

Features

Composite Load Capacity

A single bearing can simultaneously bear radial, axial, and moment loads, reducing system complexity.

Ultra-high Rigidity

The orthogonal roller layout enhances the anti-deformation capacity by 3 to 4 times, making it suitable for high-torque scenarios.

Precision Rotation

With P4-class accuracy, it meets micron-level positioning requirements (e.g., alignment mechanisms of lithography machines)

Lightweight Design

The nylon cage and thin-walled structure reduce overall weight, making it suitable for mobile devices.

Working Principle

CRBH Cross Roller Bearings
Roller Arrangement and Load Distribution: Orthogonal and crosswise rollers form an “X”-shaped contact line, evenly dispersing radial and axial forces. Moment loads are transmitted through diagonal rollers, reducing local stress concentration. Lubrication and Sealing: Double Seals (UU/U): Protect against dust and liquid intrusion, suitable for complex industrial environments. Thermal Management: The low-friction design reduces temperature rise (typical temperature rise ≤ 15°C), ensuring the thermal stability of precision instruments. Installation Compatibility: The integral structure of the inner and outer rings simplifies the installation process and is compatible with interference fits (shaft h6/housing bore H7).

Application & Case

1. Robotics (A Dominant Application)

Robot Joints: They are the ideal choice for the core rotational joints of articulated robots, SCARA robots, and collaborative robots (cobots). Their compactness allows for slim arm designs, while their high rigidity ensures precise positioning of the end-effector without flexing.

End-of-Arm Tooling (EOAT): Used in the wrist and rotation units of grippers, welders, and dispensers.

Robot Rotary Actuators: Many integrated servo-driven rotary actuators use a CRBH bearing as their foundational frame and rotation element.

2. Precision Rotary Tables and Indexing Heads

Automated Assembly and Inspection Stations: In indexing tables that require precise, repeatable angular positioning.

3. Semiconductor and Electronic Manufacturing Equipment

Wafer Handling Robots: Their clean, compact, and precise nature makes them perfect for the rotary joints of robots that transport silicon wafers in cleanrooms.

PCB (Printed Circuit Board) Automation: Used in stages that require precise rotation for component placement or inspection.

4. Medical and Optical Equipment

Medical Robot Joints: In surgical robots where compact size, precision, and reliability are critical.

Optical Scanner Rotors: For rotating mirrors and lenses in laser marking, engraving, and measurement systems.

Pan-Tilt Units (PTU): For positioning cameras and sensors smoothly and accurately.


FAQ
