Elesa low maintenance spherical rod ends for control actuation

BJT series of M6 to M14 glass reinforced technopolymer spherical rod ends are eminently suitable for rotary, oscillating and linear movements even in particularly aggressive environments and when water or humidity, fine dusts, dirt, fabrics and machining residues are present. The shaft rotary movement can take place directly on the inner diameter of the spherical cap, made of self-lubricating materials – they are designed to require zero maintenance with low wear and to absorb vibration and stress while minimising noise. They have high mechanical strength and low weight, while being corrosion resistant even in aggressive industrial environments. The BJT series are maintenance free and are especially good at compensating misaligned linkages as well as absorbing vibrations and transverse stresses with low noise. Applications are likely to include sensor mechanisms, gas struts, rod control linkages, motion control – low power movement transmission and pneumatic actuator systems. These may be found in print machines, light mobile equipment, HVAC flap and valve controls and machine guards. This operation of oscillating levers and conversion of rotary to linear motion is particularly useful for remote operation of long rod systems, e.g. pick and place assembly machines.
