Wire race bearings and linear guides for textile machines
Maximum precision and efficiency for textile machines
Franke wire race bearings offer maximum design freedom, high precision and a long service life. The low-friction operation saves up to 30 % drive energy, making your textile machines more efficient and durable.
Textile machinery
In the textile machinery industry, precision, durability and efficiency are crucial to meeting high production requirements. Thanks to their unique principle, Franke wire race bearings and linear guides offer maximum design freedom and meet the highest requirements in terms of precision and load capacity. Unlike conventional bearings, the rolling process in our wire race bearings takes place with low friction on precisely ground races, making the bearings not only extremely compact but also highly resilient.
Thanks to the 4-point contact, an even load distribution from all directions is possible, which considerably extends the service life. The freedom of choice in terms of material, geometry, size, hole pattern, toothing and sealing offers designers maximum flexibility in the design of textile machines.
Our wire race bearings are characterized by their high precision, which is achieved by a special grinding process of the raceways. This patented process, which has been optimized over decades, guarantees long-lasting and maintenance-free functionality. The vibration-free and low-friction operation leads to a reduction in drive energy of up to 30 %, which not only saves costs but also increases the efficiency of the entire machine.
Franke wire race bearings and linear guides are therefore the ideal choice for textile machines that rely on high performance, durability and energy efficiency.

Optimum adaptation to your specifications
Franke wire race bearings impress with their exceptional precision, which is achieved through a special grinding process of the raceways.
The precise and low-friction running of these bearings reduces the energy requirement of the drive by up to 30 %, which not only contributes to a significant reduction in operating costs, but also sustainably optimizes the overall performance and efficiency of the machine.
The bearing arrangement of circular knitting machines, for example, has a direct influence on the quality of the fabric produced.
The advantages for you:
- Large center clearance for adaptation to your drive design
- High integration capability in your design
- High precision for fabrics of the highest quality
- Sustainability and resource efficiency through refurbishing
- Favorable price, especially for series production
