Innovative Bearing Solutions for Precision, Reliability, and Performance

Welcome to the official Franke Bearings Blog, your go-to resource for the latest thinking in motion engineering, product innovation, and industry insights.

Whether you’re designing compact robotics, specifying components for medical devices, or building automation systems from the ground up, our blog is here to support you with content that’s practical, technical, and forward-thinking.

At Franke, we don’t just supply lightweight bearings…we help engineers solve problems. That’s why our blog covers everything from the assembly of bearings to how our unique wire race technology performs under pressure in demanding environments. We dive into how linear guide rail systems, direct drive motors, and customised bearing assemblies are reshaping what’s possible in modern machine design.

Looking for a behind-the-scenes look at how we build our products? Want to learn how to reduce weight and space in your application without compromising performance? Or just need clear, expert advice on how to choose the right bearing for your system? You’ll find it all here.

You’ll also be the first to hear about product launches, customer success stories, and new engineering resources like The Innovation Station.

Every article is written to inform, not overwhelm, so you can make smarter design decisions, faster.
