(Extensible CAD: Apex, NC) -- In 1983, a small company, Pacific Bearing Co., tackled what had become an industrial headache: failing linear ball bearings. With patented and innovative technology, the company has grown significantly since its founding, expanded its technology, and now operates as PBC Linear, a manufacturer of hundreds of linear motion products from individual, out-of-the-box components and mechanical subassemblies to complete linear systems.

The company’s linear motion components are sold assembled in pre-engineered systems, slides, and stages to a vast array of industries, including the military, medical device, lab automation, packaging, and industrial markets. All the company’s products are manufactured at the company’s manufacturing facility in Roscoe, Illinois. With PBC Linear’s wide variety of products, making sure products are designed efficiently and make their way through the product development process in a timely manner is essential to staying ahead of its competitors.
