Improve your Automation

Maximize uptime and ROI with the right polymer parts.

PowerCore track rollers, gears and cam followers can improve the speed and efficiency of automated systems in a variety of industries.

From warehouse robotics to vertical farming systems, automation applications are all about uptime. The motion components you use in these systems must include the right combination of features that keeps your product quality and running time high — all while minimizing or eliminating maintenance requirements and downtime.

When uptime is all the time

Precise, smooth, quiet motion and power transmission for the life of the application – all without lubrication or maintenance. Our high tech PowerCore components offer many advantages over traditional components making it a compelling choice for components in applications with demanding speed and reliability requirements.

Mechanically superior, our precision machined composite over metal hybrid design allows for run out and tolerances of metal combined with the benefits of the highest grade plastics
Replace 316 Steel. Our components are seven times lighter than steel, and FDA approved so you can get away from expensive 316 steel components, and actually improve corrosion resistance while reducing inertia and its adverse effects in your systems
PowerCore components offer dimensional stability in high and low temperatures, no moisture absorption and no internal stresses. These result in strength, load capacity, wear resistance, torque transmission, and reliability not typically achievable in plastics

Small change, big environmental impact

The self-lubricating, lightweight nature of our polymer components is better for the environment, enabling you to improve the energy efficiency of your operation and reduce your environmental footprint.

PowerCore polymer parts are self-lubricating, which means you no longer have to reach for the grease gun to keep your motion system components running smoothly
Reduce energy consumption up to 25%. Size down the motor – remove lubrication lines and equipment that used to need to operate 24 hours a day. Reduce maintenance personnel
Our parts run 2-10X longer than the competition. The fewer replacement parts you need the better it is for the environment. Our parts not only work better, they last longer

A more reliable component for a lower overall cost

Some components just can’t keep up with today’s demands. Machines need to run faster and quieter with less maintenance. Traditional early 1900s designed gears, track rollers, and cam followers just can’t keep up. The added speed can lead to lubrication failures, seized parts, and shaky sloppy machines. We’ve engineered components for the future of machine design.

Lubrication free, eliminating viscous drag, galling, pitting and excessive heat
Vibration dampening, taking up slack from other components at high speeds
Crack resistant even with shock load and gears won’t shear teeth or wear prematurely
