2. Linear-motion bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear-motion_bearing

   A linear-motion bearing or linear slide is a bearing designed to provide free motion in one direction. There are many different types of linear motion bearings.. Motorized linear slides such as machine slides, X-Y tables, roller tables and some dovetail slides are bearings moved by drive mechanisms.

3. Way (machine tool element) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Way_(machine_tool_element)

   The geometry of the way can vary depending on the situation. The most common types are flat, vee, and dovetail ways. Flat ways are used when there is little requirement for the slide to be constrained perpendicular to the axis of movement, or the constraint is being provided by another component or otherwise not needed, such as on the carriage of a lathe.

4. Drawer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawer

   A wheel drawer or roller runner slide (sometimes called a European-style slide) is a simple mechanism that can handle heavy loads. However, the drawer cannot be fully extended, except when removing it. Ball bearing slides Ball bearing or steel ball slides have ball bearings to make drawers slide more smoothly. Telescoping ball bearing drawer slides

5. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

   A cylindrical roller bearing. Roller bearings are the earliest known type of rolling-element-bearing, dating back to at least 40 BC. Common roller bearings use cylinders of slightly greater length than diameter. Roller bearings typically have a higher radial load capacity than ball bearings, but a lower capacity and higher friction under axial ...

6. Tapered roller bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapered_roller_bearing

   The bearing was composed of two sets of cylindrical rollers, one set larger in diameter than the other, that fit on flats machined on the tapered axle-skein. In 1898, Henry Timken was awarded a patent [2] for the tapered roller bearing which used conical rollers. At the time, Timken was a carriage-maker in St. Louis and held three patents for ...

7. Cam follower - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cam_follower

   A cam follower, also known as a track follower, [1] is a specialized type of roller or needle bearing designed to follow cam lobe profiles. Cam followers come in a vast array of different configurations, however the most defining characteristic is how the cam follower mounts to its mating part; stud style cam followers use a stud while the yoke style has a hole through the middle.
