Description
Cam Follower Bearings are specialized rolling element bearings designed to follow cam lobes and track surfaces in linear or rotary motion systems. Unlike standard bearings, cam followers feature a thick-walled outer ring that enables them to handle high radial loads, shock, and intermittent motion.
These bearings are typically used in automation equipment, material handling systems, and industrial machinery, where reliable motion along a track or guide is essential.
Characteristics:
Integrated stud or yoke design for easy mounting
Thick outer ring to absorb shock and reduce deformation
Available in needle roller or cylindrical roller types
Can include seals for protection from contaminants
Cam followers come in a variety of types such as stud type, yoke type, and crowned or cylindrical outer ring variants to suit different load and tracking conditions.
