Cam Follower

Cam followers (bolt type rollers) are designed to run on all types of tracks and are used in
cam drives, conveyor systems, etc. They are based on needle roller bearings or cylindrical
roller bearings. They do not have an inner ring, but instead have a solid threaded stud (pin).

Cam Follower Types


 Cylindrical Roller Followers  Easy Mounting Type Cam Followers
 Separable Roller Followers  Cylindrical Roller Cam Followers
 Miniature Type Cam Follower  Eccentric Type Cam Followers
 Centralized Lubrication Type Cam  Solid Eccentric Stud Type Cam Followers
Structure and Features of Cam Follower Bearing
1. The cam follower bearing is a compact, highly rigid bearing with a shaft. It contains
needle rollers and is used as a cam mechanism or as a guide roller for linear movements.
As its outer ring rotates while maintaining contact with the mating surface, it is designed
with thick walls to withstand shock loads.
2. The inner outer ring contains needle rollers and precision cages. This prevents skewing of
the product and achieves excellent rotational performance. As a result, the product can
easily withstand high rotational speeds.
3. The outer ring is available in spherical or cylindrical shapes. The spherical outer ring
quickly absorbs the axial deformation of the cam follower during installation and helps to
reduce some of the load.
4. Long service life. The crowned outer ring running surface is beneficial for applications
where the outer ring may tilt relative to the track or where edge stresses need to be
minimised.
5. Easy to install. The cam follower's threaded solid studs (pins) can be quickly and easily
attached to the appropriate machine components by means of hexagonal nuts.
