Self-clinching Bearings Aid Imaging Business
In the US an imaging business machine, a leading developer and manufacturer of high-speed, high-capacity document image scanners has again specified Spyraflo self-clinching, self-aligning bearings for their quality performance and cost savings. The company's primary product is a scanning platform that converts paper documents into colour and bi-tonal digital images. Its advanced scanning technology depends on the bearings being one of the more critical components for helping to transport documents down a track at a relatively high rate of speed.
Dependable and with 'low to no' maintenance bearings are critical components for these operations since they are crucial to control the level of smooth, noiseless motion that is designed into this equipment.A major consideration for their customers is the 10-year warranty.
The 6mm and 8mm diameter self-aligning Spyraflo bearings also dramatically cut manufacturing costs.This is through their ability to self-clinch directly into sheet metal therefore removing the need for expensive precision-machined blocks.
This long established customer has used Spyraflo self-clinching, self-aligning bronze products exclusively for years and recently started using the teflon-bronze bearings, which offer a much higher load carrying capability, as well as greater oscillatory motion
