Flexural pivot bearings provide frictionless, wear-free rotational or oscillatory motion through the elastic deflection of thin metallic flexure elements — typically titanium, beryllium copper, or spring steel — machined or EDM-cut to precise geometries, and are employed in aerospace gimbal assemblies, inertial navigation platforms, and control actuators where zero stiction, hysteresis-free movement, and high fatigue life are critical.
