Incorporating Bearing Races and Gears

Gears And Bearing Races Combined:

Use 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 customer can focus his efforts on core capabilities.
