Slewing Ring and Industrial Turntable Bearings
Slewing bearings, such as turntable bearings and slewing ring bearings, provide 360-degree rotation under radial, axial, and moment loads. Typically face-mounted, they can support external rotation or act as the main drive using internal or external gears. As a leading slewing ring bearing manufacturer and slewing bearings supplier, we offer reliable options like Four Point Ball Bearings and Cross Roller Slewing Bearings for high-performance applications. These bearings come in a wide variety of sizes and configurations, from a 4” ID all the way up through a 144”+ OD, and can provide the perfect bearing solution in many different
applications. Scheerer’s ability to customize these slewing ring bearings is unique, in that they can be used to fill multiple rolls and serve several functions. In addition to offering interchanges for all of the standard series slewing ring in the industry, Scheerer bearing routinely works directly with OEM manufacturers to design application specific units, and can even provide replacements for discontinued legacy slewing ring bearings.’

Slewing Bearing Drive Units – Strength and Precision
Slewing drives come in a variety of formats but are primarily based on worm gear mechanisms. Worm gears offer precision and smooth rotation under substantial loads. The combination of a slewing drive / bearing combination reduces the speed but multiplies its torque, making them ideal for applications that require both critical load-holding strength and rotational torque all while providing high-precision movement.
