What is a cam roller with axle?

A pin-type cam follower is an essential component in mechanical motion systems. Some pin-type cam followers use ball bearings to support high radial loads and axial loads in both directions. Axle cam followers are a type of bearing used in mechanical motion systems. They are designed to precisely follow cam profiles and convert rotary motion into linear motion. These rollers are used in cam mechanisms and conveyor systems, where precise, repetitive movements are required.

Types of cam rollers with axle

At 123Roulement, we offer a wide range of cam rollers with axles to meet a variety of industrial needs:

Cam roller types

  • Needle-type cam rollers: These rollers feature cylindrical needles to support high loads with minimal friction. They are ideal for applications requiring high load capacity and extreme precision.

  • Roller cam rollers: Featuring cylindrical rollers, these rollers distribute the load evenly, offering enhanced strength and durability. They are ideal for industrial environments where loads are often heavy.

Axle and outer ring configurations

In addition to roller types, we also offer different configurations (all compatible with roller or needle cam rollers) to suit various applications:

  • Axis with concentric bearing: ensures even rotation and precise alignment.

  • Axis with eccentric ring: Allows fine adjustment of roller position for better contact and precise adjustment.

  • Domed outer ring: Provides an optimized contact surface for smoother movement.

  • Cylindrical (flat) outer ring: Provides a stable, uniform surface for specific applications.

Cam rollers can be fitted with a variety of bearings, including needle and roller bearings.

Special features of cam rollers with axle

Cam rollers with axles offer distinct advantages that make them indispensable in many applications:

  • Precision of movement: They guarantee precise tracking of cam profiles, which is essential for applications requiring high accuracy of movement. This precision helps optimize industrial processes and produce high-quality results.

  • High load capacity: Designed to withstand high loads, both radial and axial, these rollers are robust and reliable even under extreme load conditions. They are specifically designed to withstand high radial loads. This is made possible by the special design of the outer ring.

  • Durability: Made from high-quality materials such as hardened steel, these rollers are designed to withstand harsh environments, including shock and vibration, while requiring minimum maintenance. Durability is also ensured by the thick-walled outer ring.

  • Low friction: Reducing friction increases the efficiency of mechanical systems and prolongs their service life, while reducing energy consumption.

How to choose the right reference?

To select the cam roller with axle best suited to your needs, several criteria need to be assessed:

  • Application requirements: Determine the specific needs of your application, such as load, speed, and type of movement. For example, for heavy loads and industrial environments, roller cam followers are often preferred.

  • Roller type: Select the type of roller (needle or roller) according to the loads and performance required. Roller cam followers offer better load distribution and increased durability. It's also important to consider their ease of mounting on axles.

  • Dimensions : Make sure that the dimensions (outside diameter, inside diameter, width) perfectly match your application to ensure correct installation and optimum performance. It's also important to consider the diameter of the stud.

  • Materials: Choose rollers made from materials suitable for the environment in which they will be used, especially those that are corrosion-resistant for environments that are damp or exposed to chemicals.

Advantages of cam rollers with pin for various industries

  • Machine tools and manufacturing equipment: Used to ensure precise movements in cutting, molding and assembly machines, improving the accuracy and repeatability of manufacturing processes.

  • Material handling systems: Essential for conveyor systems and material handling equipment where high load capacity and durability are crucial. Cam roller shoulder rings help support high axial loads. They ensure smooth, continuous movement of materials and products.

  • Industrial automation: Ideal for automated systems requiring precision motion and long-term reliability, increasing the efficiency of automated processes and reducing downtime.

  • High-precision applications: Used in measuring instruments and precision equipment where every movement must be controlled with maximum accuracy, guaranteeing the quality and precision of operations.
