💡 What is a cam follower used for in linear slide units and how does it compare to sealed ball bearings? Cam followers are rolling-contact elements that follow a cam or track and are handy for guiding and transferring motion in automation, indexing, and heavy-load applications. - Designed for line contact and higher radial loads common in cam tracks and linear slide units - Often chosen over sealed ball bearings when track guidance, impact loading, or lateral alignment is required - Available in caged, shielded, or ceramic-ready variants to match speed, contamination, and service-life needs
