Wire race bearings and linear guides for research and development
Customized precision
Flexibility and adaptability are crucial in research and development. Franke wire race bearings and linear guides adapt to special conditions - ideal for prototype construction and applications in small batch sizes.
Research & Development
In research and development, especially at universities and institutes, flexibility and adaptability are crucial. The work here is often subject to special conditions: limited installation space, special environmental requirements such as clean room, vacuum or amagnetism, as well as the need to produce small quantities or prototypes. These challenges require components that are not only robust and precise, but can also be optimally integrated into the specific designs.
Franke wire race bearings and linear guides are perfectly tailored to the needs of research and development. They offer a high level of integration capability and can be ideally adapted to the respective application thanks to the free choice of material and geometry. Whether stainless steel, Duratherm, ceramic or other materials - Franke components offer customized solutions that meet the special requirements of your research projects. Thanks to its flexibility in the choice of materials and the ability to realize individual developments and prototypes from a batch size of one piece, Franke is the ideal partner for your projects.
- Franke products are known to work reliably even under extreme conditions.
- Thanks to customization from batch size 1, we can offer solutions that are precisely tailored to your needs - regardless of whether they are for applications in dirty, damp or particularly sensitive environments.
