For machine builders, Schaeffler offers one of the most comprehensive portfolios of linear motion products in the world. The addition of Ewellix products to Schaeffler's linear range enables the company to tailor its products even more closely to customer requirements.

Ewellix has a modular range of linear guides and actuation technologies that enables it to build customised, application-specific solutions quickly and cost-effectively. An example of this is the KUME-E range of two-row miniature linear recirculating ball bearing and guideway assemblies.
Simple and secure to mount, the miniature guides have improved sealing and rolling element retention, resulting in a longer operating life and low maintenance requirements, as well as extremely smooth, quiet running. All metallic components are made from corrosion-resistant steel, making them suitable for harsh environments such as food and medical technology.
