Bearing solutions for automated guided vehicles. Always thinking one step ahead and offering flexibility - that is the credo of FFT Produktionssysteme GmbH & Co. KG a leading global provider of automated manufacturing solutions. To achieve this, the plant manufacturer relies on collaboration between humans and robots and on digital networking. As automated guided vehicles are also frequently required in FFT's projects, the company began to manufacture these itself and sell them as independent products. Franke USA bearing assemblies are installed in the FFTigv AGILITY product variant. #innovation #automation #manufacturing #engineering #agv

Bearing assembly with Torque-Motor - Franke Direct Drive Bearing assemblies with direct drive are suitable for applications where high performance and low space requirements are important criteria. The integration of the drive into the bearing housing means that wear-prone assemblies for transmitting drive power, such as toothed belts, shafts or chains, can be eliminated. This reduces the required drive energy and also benefits more accurate positioning. For more information go to https://lnkd.in/eAJmGUJz #design #innovation #directdrive #engineering #manufacturing

Medical application the C-arm x-ray machine using Franke bearings! Saving space and costs by directly integrating the raceway segments into the housing parts. An advantage only Franke products can offer. The segmented bearing is adjusted backlash-free and can be moved by hand with defined resistance. The movement is quiet and uniform.

Luggage scanner main bearing application - Franke The main bearing of a luggage scanner fulfills several requirements: It is the mounting structure for several components including but not limited to slip rings, X-ray detectors and drive components. Also, it has to rotate smoothly and evenly at speeds of up to 150 rpm. Low running noise, large freedom of movement and a maintenance-free and long service life with over 50 million revolutions are also expected. Franke LDC-1068 4-point bearing assembly made of aluminum with customer-specific design of the housing rings provides the perfect solution.

High-precision Franke bearings for optronic systems on land, at sea and in the air. For surveillance, observation and target acquisition! Franke wire race bearings are based on a special principle. The rolling elements do not move directly on the bearing rings but on tough wire raceways that are inserted into the bearing housing. This gives you completely new possibilities for the design and choice of materials for your application. Franke wire race bearings can be customized in many ways.

Omnidirectional automated guided vehicle system (AGV) with Franke bearings! Mecanum wheels of an omnidirectional AGV require very compact, simple and rigid bearing arrangements. Furthermore, a minimum installation space and higher tilting moments with eccentric loads must be taken into account. The solution: A Franke bearing is used for optimized load absorption. This small bearing element can be easily integrated into existing wheels. The outer and inner diameters remain unaffected.
