Ball Bearing Slides
Ball bearing slides are the most commonly found type of linear slide or roller slide. Linear slides are used to produce smooth, low friction motion and ball bearing slides are a straightforward and low maintenance method. Ball bearing slides use spheres composed of durable materials such as aluminum, steel, or galvanized steel located within a rail or railing system set up in the desired flow direction. The linear system also comprises a moving component attached to the railing and spherical components.
Ball Bearing Slide Applications
There are a number of various applications for ball bearing slides, including robotics and instrumentation construction, cleanroom operating systems, high-end appliances and cabinetry, and electronics and construction industries. A common everyday use of ball bearings is in drawer slides as the weight of the drawer and its contents are easily managed by the ball bearings. However, they are typically not used for heavy weight applications as ball bearings have a lower load capacity relative to their size as they are less resistant to deterioration from the sliding process. Ball bearing systems can be powered by drive mechanisms, gravity, or hand if an operator is present. Depending on the size and weight of the load, the most appropriate system can be installed.
Ball Bearing Slide Maintenance
A limitation of ball bearing slides is their need for a specific housing or driving system that allows the bearings enough freedom of motion to rotate efficiently, but not so much that the movement produces is ineffective and imprecise. The systems themselves are commonly constructed from aluminum or rolled steel and typically are two linear rails of bearings within the containment guides. These rails support the carriage and should move smoothly across the bearings. These systems typically do not require the frequent addition of a lubricant as the movement is not the sliding of surfaces across each other. However the railing systems themselves may have to be disassembled and cleaned periodically, especially when the linear slides are used in environments with levels of dust and debris, which could contaminate the interior workings of the railings. Ball bearings create a much lower level of friction and, therefore heat and are ideal for many applications, providing a relatively cost-effective method of improving motion and reducing slip-stick tendencies within an operation. The balls used are easy to manufacture and are typically cheaper than components of other linear slide systems.
