■ Main Exhibits and Technology Presentations
1. J-Type ROBUSTDYNA™ Bearings for Machine Tool Spindles
• Optimized bearing internal design, for instance by employing larger diameter balls, increases load capacity by 15% compared to conventional products,*1 supporting heavy-duty cutting.
*1 NSK’s current H-type Robust Series bearings (SUJ2 version)
• Optimized internal specifications deliver high-speed performance equivalent to that of conventional products, enabling use in both low-speed and high-speed applications.
• Optimized internal design and the use of NSK’s proprietary long-life steel NSK improve service life, making it up to six times longer than that of conventional products.
2. Ball Screws for Next-Generation High-Accuracy Machine Tools
• Reduced friction fluctuations when ball screws reverse direction minimizes quadrant glitch motion errors.
• Friction characteristics that are easier to control via NC systems contribute to better quality machined surfaces.
3. MT-Frix™ Low-Friction Ball Screws for Machine Tools (Panel Display)
• A significant reduction in dynamic friction torque and the heat generation of ball screws deliver more sustainable machine tool accuracy and better energy saving.
