Yes, TeraSpin makes spindles for tangential drive as well

Life of spindle depends on the handling and maintenance practices in a spinning mill. Millions of TeraSpin spindles are in production all over the world.

TeraSpin spindles are designed for up to a mechanical speed of 25,000 rpm.

2-point contact for reduced friction, coiled spring for damping lateral movement, footstep bearing mounted over axial bearing to cushion axial loads are some of the unique features that make TeraSpin spindles a high performance precision component.

TeraSpin spindles come with a unique conical footstep bearing mounted on a spring to cushion axial load. The steel tip of the spindle blade rests is also conical but its cone angle is smaller than the cone angle of the foot step bearing. This difference in conical angles creates a hydrodynamic lubricating film of oil between the rotating spindle tip and the conical footstep.

Each TeraSpin insert has been designed to meet the demands of dynamic loads and operating speeds. Hence, depend on application and operating conditions TeraSpin experts specify spindles with appropriate insert.

This is a matter of technological know-how that TeraSpin has acquired when taking over the textile component business from SKF India and developed further with experience of in-house research and experience.
