About Franke GmbH

For over 70 years, Franke has consistently convinced its customers with innovative, highly individualized storage solutions. They are all based on the same principle that Erich Franke invented in 1936.

Erich Franke invented a new type of bearing in 1936 while searching for a particularly space-saving design: the Wire Race Bearing.

Over the years we have consistently enhanced his principle of four race rings. Today our product program includes rotative and linear components – with and without drive. We employ a workforce of  340 at our headquarters in Aalen. We are also represented at many locations throughout the world.
 
Individual Solutions
The 4-point contact that Erich Franke developed permits a maximum degree of flexibility and hence lays the ideal foundation for individual product solutions. Our customers are at liberty to choose whichever material, geometry, size, bore pattern, gear and sealing they require. An extremely broad range of materials can also be used for the mating structure.
