STAR bearings are linear motion systems produced at low cost, designed for infinite stroke applications in conjunction with cylindrical shafts. They are widely used in sliding components of industrial machinery such as precision machine tools, textile machinery, food packaging machinery, and printing machinery. Introduction to STAR bearings: Self-aligning ball bearings consist of an inner ring with two raceways and an outer ring with a spherical raceway, assembled with spherical rolling elements. The center of curvature of the outer ring raceway coincides with the bearing center, providing self-aligning functionality similar to automatic self-aligning ball bearings. They can automatically compensate for misalignment caused by shaft or housing deflection without increasing bearing load.
