Our extremely stiff, friction-free linear bearings will increase the performance of any large or small vibration test system.
12 June 2024
The V8 and T8 bearings are some of the most widely used products in Team Corporation’s arsenal.
These linear bearings are extremely versatile and built to last. Many of the world’s leading test laboratories specify these bearings when building or upgrading their high-performance test systems. Some installations have been running flawlessly for more than 35 years, with little to no maintenance during that time. The hydrostatic bearing technology provides a friction-free environment for use with a vibration table or fixture to ride on.Each bearing supports +/- 10,000 lbf vertical load to enable testing of large test articles with minimal bearing content. The vertical stiffness exceeds 8,000,000 lbs/inch. This high stiffness allows for exceptional transmissibility of forces directly through the bearing into the reaction mass, improving cross-axial control of the moving parts.
The V8 and T8 linear bearings’ precision performance makes them ideal for mission-critical testing of sensitive equipment, such as guidance instrumentation used in aerospace, defense, and satellite development programs.
The modular design system allows for these bearings to be used in smaller scale systems, while an array can be used to constrain large products.
