Customized Bearings for Humanoid Robot Actuators

Humanoid robot actuators are becoming increasingly compact and integrated. Motors, reducers, sensors and bearings must fit into a limited mechanical envelope.

As a result, standard bearing dimensions do not always match the requirements of a new actuator design.

An actuator may have specific requirements for:

• Bore and outside diameter
• Bearing width
• Mounting interface
• Load capacity
• Stiffness
• Internal clearance or preload
• Rotation speed
• Lubrication
• Operating environment

When these requirements cannot be satisfied by an existing standard bearing, a customized bearing can be considered.

Depending on the application, customization may involve dimensions, internal geometry, precision class, preload or clearance, sealing and other design parameters.

The final specification should always be determined according to the actual application and engineering requirements.

A typical customized bearing development process can include:

Customer Drawing → Application Review → Bearing Design → Prototype Samples → Testing → Optimization → Mass Production

Early engineering communication can help identify potential issues before the bearing enters the production stage.

Beining Technology manufactures precision and customized bearings for robotics and automation applications, including crossed roller, four-point contact, angular contact and other bearing types.

Our current manufacturing information includes a 30,000+ m² facility and more than 100 fully automated production lines, supporting both standard and customized bearing production.
