The Backbone of Robotic Motion

A linear actuator and a self-lubricating rod end

Self-Lubricating Rod Ends for Linear Actuator

Self-lubricating rod ends engineered to optimize robots for linear actuator applications with precise, high-frequency control. Zero maintenance, infinite endurance.

Core Solutions for Humanoid Robotics

Liner-type self-lubricating rod ends are the industry standard for advanced robotic joints. Here is why they are the critical choice for your design.

Zero Maintenance & Risk-Free

Uses a solid transfer film mechanism for continuous lubrication. Eliminates grease leakage and low-temp coagulation risks, significantly reducing operational costs.

Compact & Lightweight

Simple structure eliminates bulky lubrication systems. Optimizes the robot's power-to-weight ratio and fits perfectly into tight joint cavities.

High-Frequency Motion

Specialized liner reduces friction resistance and prevents stick-slip. Ensures smooth, precise control during rapid direction changes and multi-DOF movements.

Durability & Resilience

Engineered for harsh environments with exceptional load-bearing capacity. Resistant to corrosion, wear, and dust while maintaining low noise levels.

Rotary + Linkage Configuration

The dominant configuration for humanoid robots, particularly in knee and ankle joints. This architecture uses a rotary actuator to drive other components via a rigid linkage mechanism, acting as both a driver and a load-bearing structure.

Compact Structure

Ideal for small spaces with high motion range requirements.

Bio-mimetic Control

Achieves non-linear, human-like motion trajectories.

Dual Function

Simplifies design by combining drive and load-bearing roles.

High Rigidity

Withstands significant torque and reaction forces.

Cost Efficiency

Lower implementation cost compared to complex geared systems.

Rotary + Linear Integration

Integrates rotational and linear freedom in a single unit. Essential for upper-body tasks requiring stability, such as bicep thrusts and standing balance.

Space Efficiency & Force

Utilizes longer, stronger actuators to maximize output force in confined areas.

Self-Locking Ability

Provides energy-efficient stability when holding static poses.

Visual Precision

Minimizes arm occlusion, improving the field of view for onboard vision systems.
