Shafts and bushings
GENERAL INTRODUCTION
The combination of precision shafts and ball bushings is a supporting, precise and low-cost solution for linear motion which fits for many industrial applications. Shafts can be used as excellent tracks for linear motion due to high stiff and quality of the previously treated surface. The balls inside the bushings produce a contact with shaft’s surface ensuring a precise and low-friction motion. In addition, Monguzzi srl provides a series of end and continuous supports for shafts and bushings.
PRECISION SHAFTS
Shafts are used in combination with ball bushings in linear motion field. In order to optimize the performance of the latter, a high precision of the used shafts is needed. Moreover, size, tolerance, surface finishing and stiffness of the shaft impact on the durability of bushings. Product range of Monguzzi Srl includes specifically designed precision shafts with a long service life. Indeed, shafts and tubes undergo induction hardening, grinding or quenching treatments which give the product a different but still high level of surface stiffness, thermal stability and high dimensional tolerances. Also, it’s possible to increase their resistance to chemicals and corrosion through chrome plating process.

In addition to the available standard products, we also provide a cutting service and drawing-based manufacturing for shafts, such as milling, rounding and drilling upon specific customer’s request.
BALL BUSHINGS
Linear ball bushings need to be available to supply precision shafts. Indeed, ball bushings are also known as guide systems for shafts. They are high precision component which allow for unlimited stroke motion, good performance and precise, quick and low-friction motion. Also, besides different types of shafts and bushings, highly modular diameter ensures easy use and installation. Together with high performance, these advantages make ball bushings ideal for linear motion in plenty of application fields.
