Since 1974, Kimco Magnetics was one of the original pioneers to commercialize products made with rare earth metals. Acquired in 1984 by BEI Technologies, the two companies merged to become BEI Kimco to provide you with leading-edge capabilities and cost effective manufacturing know-how with the personalization customers would expect. BEI Kimco, a leader since the start, continues to dominate the market for leading brushless DC motors and linear and rotary voice coil actuators. We have provided the market with thousands of motors and actuators for industries ranging from medical and defense to laboratory and factory automation. Our product line includes linear voice coil actuators, rotary voice coil actuators, VCA developer’s kit, brushless DC motors, brushless DC motor customization capabilities, and voice coil actuator customization capabilities. We create products that are highly personalized for a wide range of applications. A few of these applications include, but not limited to, downhole drilling, lens grinding, military stabilization, centrifuges, oxygen concentrators, blood diagnostics, haptic feedback devices, respirators, industrial scanners, and much more.

Linear Bearings

Linear Bearings

Linear bearings are a type of bearing that "bear" or support the load of the carriage during its single-axis linear movement and provide a low friction sliding surface for the guide rails. In a linear guide, the carriage is the component that travels in a straight line, back and forth, along the length of the guide rail...

Linear Actuators

Linear Actuators

A linear actuator is a means for converting rotational motion into push or pull linear motion, which can be used for lifting, dropping, sliding, or tilting of machines or materials. They provide safe and clean...

Linear Slides

Linear Slides

Linear slides, also referred to as linear guides or linear-motion bearings, are types of bearings that allow smooth and near-frictionless motion in a single axis. Machine tools, robots, actuators, sensors, and other mechanical equipment often require moving components in a straight line in any of the three-dimensional axes...

Ball Bearings

Deep Grove Ball Bearing

Ball bearings are types of rolling-elements bearings that carry loads, reduce friction, and position moving machine parts while facilitating motion. They reduce surface contact and friction across moving planes by...

Ball Screws

Ball Screws

Ball screws are mechanical linear actuators that consist of a screw shaft and a nut that contain a ball that rolls between their matching helical grooves. The primary function of ball screws is to convert rotational motion to linear motion. Ball nuts are used in...

Lead Screw

Lead Screws

A lead screw is a kind of mechanical linear actuator that converts rotational motion into linear motion. Its operation relies on the sliding of the screw shaft and the nut threads with no ball bearings between them...

Linear Rails

Linear Rails

Linear Rails are ideal for moving items through a production process with great precision and as little friction as possible if creating, packing, and distributing products. Linear Rail is a type of gadget that...

Linear Motion Products

Linear Motion Products

High-precision, linear motion goods are essential components at the core of several items which are generally used in machine tools and equipment for manufacturing semiconductors. These items are utilized...

12 Volt Linear Actuators

12 Volt Linear Actuators

A linear actuator is a device that transforms rotational motion into push or pull linear motion, which can then be used to lift, lower, slide, or tilt machinery or materials. They offer effective, maintenance-free motion control...
