GMN has been involved in the manufacture of special bearings for navigation systems, starting our company’s long tradition in measurement equipment.
Precision guaranteed
GMN bearings and bearing units for measurement equipment provide the highest precision and stable quality with low installation space and weight. Products include:
Rotary encoder
Navigation systems (e.g. gyrocompass)
Probes of coordinate measuring systems
The challenges for measurement technology:
System accuracies up to <1 μm
Low, non-repeatable beat (NRR)
High system rigidity
High tuning accuracy
Low starting and running friction torque
Compact dimensions (thin-section bearing)
Low system weight (materials, construction)
Absolute cleanliness during assembly
GMN bearings and bearing units for measurement equipment provide the highest precision and stable quality with low installation space and weight. Products include: Navigation systems (such as gyro compasses), rotary pulse generators, probes for coordinate measurement systems.
Flange bearings for positioning systems
Special design (thin-walled, double-row)
Special cage (toroid)
Very low, specified starting torque
Constant, specified friction torque
Very high running accuracy
Highest tuning accuracy
Material: stainless steel (AISI 440 C)
