Cam rollers - Bearings and bearings housing FAG
Stud-type track rollers (cam followers) are designed for use with various types of rails and mechanical systems. Thanks to their thick-walled outer ring, they can withstand high radial loads. Instead of an inner ring, they feature a robust stud that facilitates easy installation. They are not mounted in a housing bore but roll directly on rails. These rollers are commonly used in conveyors and linear motion systems.
Stud-type rollers are key components in motion mechanisms, providing precise and repeatable movement in various industrial environments. The rolling element can be a ball, needle, or roller.
The FAG brand started in 1883 with the invention of Friedrich Fischer (Kugelfischer). He invented a ball mill in Schweinfurt - Germany, which made it possible for the first time to produce absolutely round balls. This invention makes the FAG brand a pioneer in rolling bearing technology. Today, FAG is synonymous with quality and is one of the leading bearing brands in mechanical engineering, automotive, aviation, as well as in the production of bearings for wind generators. Since 2001, FAG has been part of the SCHAEFFLER Group company.Together with the complementary product nomenclature of INA, SCHAEFFLER has one of the broadest product portfolios in the industry, which includes rolling and plain bearings, bearing housings, linear guide systems, as well as solutions for monitoring, greasing, assembly and disassembly of bearings.
