Messinger Bearings specializes in large, custom rolling element bearings for the machine tool industry. In many cases, Messinger designed the original OEM bearings and has shop drawings on hand to ensure drop-in compatibility. Some of the OEMs that have relied on Messinger Bearings for the bearing design for their Machine Tools include: Bullard, DeVlieg, Blanchard, Ingersoll, Carlton, Betts, King, Gray, Giddings & Lewis (G&L), Kearney & Trecker, Cincinnati, Monarch, and many others.

Messinger cylindrical thrust roller, cross-roller, and 4-point ball bearings can typically be found under the table of many Vertical Turret Lathes (VTLs), Vertical Boring Mills (VBMs), Horizontal Boring Mills, Rotary Tables, and many other Machine Tool applications. Many in the industry refer to this bearing as the Table Bearing or Table Thrust Bearing.

If you are sourcing boring mill or turret lathe parts for a repair on Bullard or Giddings & Lewis machine and the table bearings have problems, Messinger can manufacture new, or repair your existing bearing. Give us a call.
