Ball bearings are critical components in many machines and equipment and play a central role for low-friction movement of parts. Design-based protection of rolling bearings against overload and failure due to overheating, contamination and external influences is therefore one of the fundamental tasks of a design engineer. Ball bearings can for example be sealed or one can use roller bearings already sealed by the factory to achieve the longest possible service life. To minimize friction and wear, it is necessary to ensure that bearings are sufficiently lubricated. As part of maintenance, the ball bearings must therefore be checked and relubricated as needed. However, modern industrial technology increasingly uses self-lubricating or non-serviceable sealed rolling bearings, which are already equipped by the manufacturer with corresponding sealing elements and lubricant deposits.

Springs and gas springs are two of the most commonly used types of springs. They store forces and release them again as needed. But which type of spring is suitable for which application?

Insulation is a key topic in modern technology and industry that goes far beyond just keeping buildings warm. Whether it’s the electrical insulation of motors, thermal insulation of pipelines or the protection against extreme temperatures in industrial processes – the correct insulation is critical to the efficiency, safety and durability of systems and equipment. In electrical engineering, insulating material classes play a essential role in ensuring that electrical machines can work reliably under extreme conditions. What exactly are insulating materials, and how do they help increase the efficiency and safety of industrial processes? You will find out in the following article.

Semi-finished products or subassemblies very important components in the industry. They are the intermediate step between raw materials and the finished end product. Therefore, they are important for many companies in the manufacture of their products. Without semi-finished products, companies would have to process the raw materials for their products themselves. This article explains how semi-finished products are manufactured and where they are used.

Different forces occur on corner or edge connections of structures, which can lead to bending or even failure of the construction if there is insufficient support or dissipation. Angular connections can help here and provide stability. They are used to distribute effectively the forces and loads in frame structures and load-bearing structures. The following article explains different types of mounting brackets and angle brackets that are used in many industrial applications to stabilize angular joints.

Cantilever pins/cantilever bearing pins are essential fasteners that are used in numerous mechanical systems to store and connect rotating components. They act as pivoting points and contribute to the stability and precision in applications in mechanical engineering and automation. This article introduces various designs and examples of applications of cantilever pins and cantilever bearing pins.
