Design refinements boost performance of self-aligning ball bushing while maintaining their error-correcting nature.

With a coefficient of friction as low as 0.002, Thomson Super Ball Bushing bearings permit the use of smaller, less-expensive motors, belts, gears, and ball screws in place of high-friction plain ...

For their Mechanical Engineering senior design project at San Jose State University, [Tyler Kroymann] and [Robert Dee] designed and built a racing motion simulator. Which is slightly out of the budget ...

In this video, the process of turning a used ball bearing into a ring using basic machining techniques on a metal lathe is demonstrated. Old ball bearings, often kept from restoration projects, can ...
