Profile Table
LVA Steel
Bearing Type
- Bearing assembly in steel design
- LVA is a bearing assembly with housing rings made of steel and integrated bearing element. Franke bearing assemblies in type LVA are designed for medium rotational speeds and accuracies.
Characteristics
- Ready to install, wide selection range
- Preloaded free from clearance
- Selected diameters available ex works
- Franke bearing assemblies type LVA are ready-to-use, complete bearings with integrated Wire Race Bearings. Designed as 4-point bearings, they absorb equal load from all sides and are insensitive to impact and vibration. The bearing assemblies are sealed on both sides and set free from clearance and are preloaded. On request you can receive the bearing assemblies ex works with your specified preload values.
LVB Aluminium
Bearing Type
- Bearing assembly in aluminum design
- LVB is a bearing assembly with housing rings made of aluminium and integrated bearing element. Franke bearing assemblies in type LVB are designed for medium rotational speeds and accuracies.
Characteristics
- Ready to install, wide selection range
- Preloaded free from clearance
- Selected diameters available ex works
- Franke bearing assemblies type LVB are ready-to-use, complete bearings with integrated Wire Race Bearings. Designed as 4-point bearings, they absorb equal load from all sides and are insensitive to impact and vibration. The bearing assemblies are sealed on both sides and set free from clearance and are preloaded. On request you can receive the bearing assemblies ex works with your specified preload values.
LVC Angular 2 Row
Bearing Type
- Bearing assembly in steel design
- Integrated double-row angular ball bearing
- LVC is a bearing assembly designed as double-row angular contact ball bearing made of steel with two integrated bearing elements. Franke bearing assemblies in type LVC are suitable for the highest circumferential speeds. Convincing aspects include their high dynamism and low rotational resistance.
Characteristics
- Ready to install, wide selection range
- Preloaded free from clearance
- For high speed and acceleration
- Franke bearing assemblies type LVC are ready-to-use, complete bearings. The double-row angular contact ball bearing in 4-point adjustment is preloaded free of clearance. It is insensitive to impact and vibration. The low rotational resistance and the minimal breakaway torque reduce the necessary drive power. Bearing assemblies type LVC operate practically without maintenance and achieve a high service life due to the low friction values.
LVD Toothed/Steel
Bearing Type
- Bearing assembly in steel design with external gear
- LVD is a bearing assembly with external gear type and housing rings made of steel and integrated bearing element. Franke bearing assemblies in type LVD are designed for medium rotational speeds and accuracies.
Characteristics
- Ready to install, large selection range
- Preloaded free from clearance
- Available on short notice
- Franke bearing assemblies type LVD are ready-to-use, complete bearings with integrated Wire Race Bearings. Designed as 4-point bearings, they absorb equal load from all sides and are insensitive to impact and vibration. The bearing assemblies are sealed on both sides and set free from clearance and are preloaded. On request you can receive the bearing assemblies ex works with your specified preload values.
LVE Toothed/Aluminium
Bearing Type
- Bearing assembly in aluminum design / toothed belt gear
- LVE is a bearing assembly with toothed belt gear type and housing rings made of aluminium and integrated bearing element. Franke bearing assemblies in type LVE are designed for medium rotational speeds and accuracies.
Characteristics
- Ready to install, large selection range
- Preloaded free from clearance
- Available on short notice
- Franke bearing assemblies type LVE are ready-to-use, complete bearings with integrated Wire Race Bearings. Designed as 4-point bearings, they absorb equal load from all sides and are insensitive to impact and vibration. The bearing assemblies are sealed on both sides and set free from clearance and are preloaded. On request you can receive the bearing assemblies ex works with your specified preload values.
LVG Rollers
Bearing Type
- Bearing assembly in aluminum design with rollers
- LVG is a 2-row angular roller bearing with aluminum housing and two integrated bearing elements.Franke bearing assemblies type LVG are suitable for highest load capacities. They convince by high rigidity, low rotational resistance and low weight.
Characteristics
- Ready to install
- Preloaded free from clearance
- Franke bearing assemblies type LVG are ready-to-use, complete bearings with integrated Wire Race Bearings. Designed as roller bearings, they absorb equal load from all sides and are insensitive to impact and vibration. The bearing assemblies are sealed from both sides and adjusted free from clearance. Due to the housing parts made of aluminum the weight is reduced by 60% compared to steel bearings.
4 Point Principle
Our Wire Race Bearings are based on a simple yet ingenious principle: Individual race rings made of wire are fitted with a raceway that is designed precisely to match the diameter of the rolling elements. Therefore, the rolling action does not take place directly between the rolling elements and mating structure, but rather with low-friction on the four open race rings. This engineering principle permits free design of the mating structure in terms of its geometry and material selection.
Wire Race Bearings are extraordinarily compact and fit snug in even the tiniest mounting spaces. They are available either as bearing elements (consisting of race rings, rolling element and cage), or as ready-to-use bearing assemblies together with the mating structure.
Advantages
Maximum design freedom, without compromising precision or load capacity.
Principle
4 Point ContactFreedom of Design
4 Point contact principle to take load from all directions. the rolling process does not take place directly between the rolling elements and the mating structure, but rather on special race rings, giving maximum freedom of design.
Compact
Minimal Mounting SpaceMinimal Mounting Space
Requiring only a small mounting space, the compact and highly resilient four-point geometry of Franke Bearings gives you maximum freedom of design, making an ideal design component for your application.
