The rings of confidence – Aerospace Manufacturing
When it comes to accuracy, performance and good corrosion resistance, Karl Brundell, managing director of bearing specialists, Carter Manufacturing, says lightweight slewing rings are proving their worth in challenging applications.
Why are Lightweight slewing rings, (bearings) rapidly becoming the first choice for design engineers in demanding motion control applications, for example in the aerospace and defense industries? Quite simply, where absolute accuracy, optimum mechanical performance and good corrosion resistance are essential, lightweight slewing rings are proven in the most challenging applications.
Sometimes the numbers tell the story. For example, we have recently seen one of our lightweight, heavy duty aluminum…
