Mahr GmbH

In addition to familiar applications, such as die-cutting technology and die sets, Mahr precision ball guiding units are increasingly used for the production of chips and medical equipment. The ball guiding units for rotation and stroke movements make metrology more accurate, medical engineering safer, precision mechanics easier to work with, optical system more reproducible, and movements tangibly more reliable.

High-precision ball guiding units are often used in machine and equipment construction. If you are looking for a solution for play-free linear and/or rotating movements in a machine or device, these Mahr ball guiding units are an excellent solution! These highly accurate (friction coefficient between 0.001 - 0.008 mm) ball guiding units have more than proved themselves as construction elements in machines and equipment.

Why Mahr ball guiding units

  • For play-free linear and/or rotating movements;
  • The highest precision and lightest guiding characteristics;
  • Close production tolerances guarantee interchangeability of components;
  • Long service life and maintenance intervals;
  • Large selection of shafts, bushes, and ball cages;
  • Deviating preload for specific properties, such as extremely light guides or high loads;
  • Brass and plastic ball cages;
  • Ambient temperatures of up to 300°C possible;
  • Special custom versions, made of different materials (e.g. stainless steel, PEEK, or ceramics), are also available.

Mahr ball cages, guide axes, and bushes

The ball guiding units consist of three parts: ball cages, guide axes, and bushes. The guiding units are real design elements. They can be customised, standardised (to a certain extent), and exchanged without loss of quality. This applies for both custom and standard versions. The Mahr high-precision ball guiding units can be used in many industries that require (simultaneous) stroke or rotational movements.

Mahr has been providing its high-precision ball guiding technology to third parties for decades. The demand for play-free, rotating, and/or linear movements is increasing. In order to offer a full range, Mahr has refined its technology and increased the production of these bearings.

Customisation

In addition to the standard components, the full range can be adjusted to the specific needs of the customer. The wide variety of materials, such as steel, stainless steel, brass, nylon, PEEK, and ceramics, make it possible to use Mahr's technology in almost every field. Even ambient temperatures of up to 300 degrees Celsius are possible. Axes, bushes, and ball cages can be fully customised, allowing for even the most compact of constructions..
