Unleash Your Potential - More Freedom in Design and Interfacing
No longer bound to the restrictions of commodities, your application can finally unleash its full potential. Components shouldn’t transfer their limitations to your entire system, but rather components need to adapt to the requirements of the system. Our bearing design methodology offers the best of all worlds: Interface freedom, application maximization and efficient economics. We engineer the solution. We manufacture the product. We continuously provide testing and documentation.
Our Series
We currently have seven distinct standardized wire raceway systems which we use as our launch pad for each product category. You specify requirements related to size, load dimensions, material strength, temperature conditions, and we combine these needs with our adaptive CAD structures. The result is the efficient creation of specific structures that seamlessly integrate into your design as a COTs or MOTs product – down to the last µ!
