Ball Bearing
Koyo(JTEKT)
Koyo is one of the major Ball bearings manufacturer in Japan whostands in the market shoulder to shoulder with NSK and NTN.
Their major business extends to the Machine tools such as the precise machining centers which is well-known in the machinery industry all over the world.
Based on the knowledge of its machinery, their bearings to the spindle motors of the machinery are the cutting edge of the technology of the bearings.
Application
Machine tools
- Koyo major business
- such as the precise machining centers
- well-known in the machinery industry all over the world
 
Spindle motor of Machining centers
Spindle unit of Machining centers
-
A low temperature rise characteristic is needed for the bearing supporting the spindle of the machining center in addition to high rigidity and high accuracy to suppress effects of expansion caused by heat generation.
-
A high-ability series using ceramics is adopted for ultra-high speed rotation, so that the speed can be increased by 30 to 50% when compared with standard steel bearings.
-
The next-generation high-ability series under development can reduce temperature rise by about 40% with optimized inside design and retainer design when compared with earlier models.
Medical equipments
