THK Cam Follower CF 18-B
The Cam Follower is a compact and highly rigid bearing with a shaft. It contains needle bearings and
is used as a guide roller for cam mechanisms or straight motion.
Since its outer ring rotates while keeping direct contact with the mating surface, this product is thick
walled and designed to bear an impact load.
Inside the outer ring, needle rollers and a precision cage are incorporated. This prevents the product
from skewing and achieves a superb rotation performance. And, as a result, the product is capable of
easily withstanding high-speed rotation.
There are two types of the outer ring in shape: spherical and cylindrical. The spherical outer ring eas
ily absorbs a distortion of the shaft center when the cam follower is installed and helps lighten a
biased load.
The Cam Follower is used in a wide range of applications such as cam mechanisms of automatic
machines, dedicated machines as well as carrier systems, conveyors, bookbinding machines, tool
changers of machining centers, pallet changers, automatic coating machines, and sliding forks of
automatic warehouses.
THK LINK SPHERICAL PLAIN BEARING MODEL SA1 35
Model SA1 Specification Table
This type of Spherical Plain Bearing is widely used in Europe. The outer ring is split at one point (outer rings with diameter of φ100 or thicker are split at two points), and the width and
thickness are smaller than model SB. Thus, this model can be used in small spaces. Types attached with highly dust-preventive dust seals
on both ends (model SA1…UU) are also available.
