Ball bearing linear guides use balls to reduce friction and enable smooth motion, while roller bearing linear guides use cylindrical rollers to support higher loads and handle harsher conditions.
Overview:
A linear bearing is a mechanical component designed to provide smooth and precise linear motion along a predetermined path. The primary function of a linear bearing is to support and guide the load in a straight line with minimal friction and wear.
