Toroidal Roller Bearings

Printable toroidal roller bearings. These bearings are like a cross between a cylindrical roller bearing and a deep groove ball bearing. They use a “barrel” shaped roller instead of a ball. This gives them the good radial load bearing capability of a cylindrical roller bearing plus the ability to withstand some axial load. They have tolerance for angular and axial misalignment. I decided to design and print these bearings as the roller shape does not have shallow overhang issues that occur with
