Customer-specific bearings and gear racks

On to new shores.

SCHNEEBERGER involved in climate missions in Antarctica

Wherever large ships and, in particular, their drive systems, are built, our linear technologies are making a decisive contribution. Large multifunctional long bed lathes can be used to turn, mill, grind or even repair huge crankshafts or drive shafts, over a stroke of 40 meters and with minimal tolerance.

For these and similar applications, such as when manufacturing rotor heads or wind turbines for power engineering, we provide custom guideways and gear racks. That is how we help to make new sources of energy possible.

Our customized guideways and gear racks are used wherever standard guideways do not meet the specifications of the machine manufacturer either because the dimensions are incorrect or were not sufficiently precise.

In summary, we construct guideways that run perfectly smoothly, and guideways of particularly high rigidity or durability. There are no compromises with SCHNEEBERGER.

Thanks to our universal machinery and expert engineers, we are able to develop our products quickly and efficiently, even with complex customer specifications; initially in small batches as necessary for testing, and then in large-scale production, with high and constant quality and reliable and uninterrupted service.

Typical applications

Gear racks provide users with definite competitive advantages in the following industries:
