Crawford Precision Engineering (CPE) are the manufacturers of the SPIRO range of Rotary Linear Bearings, Self Aligning Bearings and Ball Cages in standard and special configurations. CPE have many years experience in the manufacture of bearings with customers all over the UK, Europe and the American continent. We also now supply the full range of ROTOLIN bearings, ball units and ball bushings and have recently added the EXACTA range of precision die set components to our product portfolio.

Our products are widely used in the paper processing industry (Doctor Back Bearings) and in many special purpose machine applications. A technical department is available for the design of special bearings to suit a very wide range of applications. These are manufactured in sizes up to 12 inches (300mm) outside diameter and in single units, matched sets or large quantities. The C.P.E designed BEARUSE software system is used to calculate design parameters for special bearings required to perform in specific load / speed combinations. Given essential performance requirements and any limiting factors, SPIRO engineers will specify suitable type SA, SAR, or other SPIRO bearings and advise methods of solving customers' particular design problems.
