Abstract

The very good damping properties makes the linear sliding bearing the type ofchoice for certain processes. However, the sliding contact mechanicsintroduces some frictional effects that limit the quality of motion. Severaltechnical applications show that effects caused by friction can be influencedby introducing vibrations into the contact elements. The Adaptronic VibrationBearing transfers this concept into a sliding bearing in order to maintain thegood damping properties while, at the same time, eliminating the unwantedfrictional effects.
