Linear bushing and shafts – modular and custom-fit handling solutions.

Kugelbüchsen

Our shaft guides and linear bushings enable reliable and high-precision linear movements.

Whether longitudinal thrust, stroke movements or rotations - linear bushing and shafts have proven particularly successful for energy-efficient drive solutions in automation or handling systems. In addition to their extreme robustness and long service life, this particularly low in friction linear guide offers an extraordinary degree of efficiency
Our experts configure the right shaft guide for you from over 1,000 Bosch Rexroth designs - and that for every direction of movement, diameter size and operating environment. Steel shafts and precision shafts are also essential parts of our product range.
