Based on bearings and bearing units for more than 100,000 X-ray tube systems - amongst them one of the first tubes world-wide which enabled X-rays of the heart - GMN has been an innovative and reliable partner to medical technology for decades.
Challenge against bearings for X-ray tube systems:
GMN coats components such as bearing rings, sliding fits and balls on its own PVD sputter system. Ball coatings in lead or silver with a thickness of nanometers (10-9 m) have resulted from various research projects and are the basis for the low-noise, low-vibration, particle-free GMN bearing systems which perform impressively in their various applications.
Accordance of cost and performance
In addition, particle-free tribology enables a simplified design without complex and cost-intensive shielding of the bearings. Calculation tools, trials and design-tocost studies are reflected in the design of the systems. Compared to a spring-preloaded system, the use of temperature-compensated bearing units increasingly proves to be the better solution from both a technical and economic point of view.
