Standard ball slewing rings

Discover all Rollix standard ball slewing bearings ranges

Our ball range

Billes

Our standard ball range includes all our single-row and double-row ball slewing bearings.

A distinction must be made between thin sections and standard series. Thin sections have a lower preload in relation to their diameter. They are considered thin because the ratio of cross-section to diameter is low.

Why choose standard ball slewing rings?

Ball raceway technology with 4 points of contact allows the contact angle to evolve under load, providing greater tolerance to support deformation and better vibration absorption.

What’s more, the 4 points of contact limit heat build-up, enabling faster rotation than with crossed rollers technology.

Picto_CDO_Simple_bille

Double row slewing bearings offer greater load capacity in a restricted environment.

Slewing rings are classified into several main categories based on the rolling element, geometry and level of precision.
1. Ball slewing rings
Rollix offers several variants of ball slewing rings, designed for standard applications involving moderate to high loads.
• Single row of balls
Compact slewing rings, suitable for moderate loads and where space is limited.
• Double row of balls
Higher load capacity than the single row; used for more demanding machinery.
• Light series (L-shaped profiles or solid rings)
Designed for applications requiring weight reduction.
2. Crossed-roller rings
Crossed rollers provide high rigidity and a high load capacity, particularly for combined loads.
• Single row of crossed rollers
Capable of withstanding axial and radial loads in compact applications.
• Double row of crossed rollers
Even greater rigidity and capacity, used in cranes, wind turbines, forestry equipment, etc.
3. High-precision rings
Rollix offers ranges specially optimised for high-precision applications, such as robotics or indexing tables.
• Compact range
Very high positioning accuracy, available in a wide range of diameters (148 mm to over 2,400 mm).
• Compact Light
A lighter version of the Compact range, still designed for high precision.
4. ‘Compact CB’ slewing rings
Although the term ‘CB’ is not explicitly mentioned in the PDF, it generally refers to the Compact / Compact Light range, designed for applications requiring minimal space and superior precision.
5. Other complementary ranges:
• Three-row roller slewing rings
Slewing rings for extreme loads (offshore cranes, mining machinery).
• Hybrid slewing rings / thin sections
Alternatives combining bearings and slewing rings, for severe space constraints.
