Ketchie-Houston’s years of experience with Bearing and Gear products plus
custom machining capability to streamline your
precision designs. Designs normally require a gear form to transmit motion
and bearing to reduce friction. By integrating a gear into the bearing race,
designers can eliminate many of the challenges inherent to meeting precise
requirements. Concentricity of gear pitch to bearing race is improved.
Tolerance stack of bearing bore or outside diameter to mating gear surface
is eliminated.
/In addition mounting holes can be added to bearing rings. This
further consolidates the design. High volume applications allow
bearing manufacturers to purchase equipment and tooling and develop
manufacturing skills required to gain these advantages. Now
small lot applications or R&D requirements can be met by using Ketchie- Houston equipment, tooling, capability, bearing experience and gear
expertise to consolidate components. This often saves weight and space while
improving the performance of their product. Tolerance stack-up
problems are eliminated. Run-out measurements are lowered. Inventory
losses do to mismatched components disappear. Our customers can
focus their efforts on core
capabilities.
