Versatility and Different Uses of Ball Bearings

Blog | February 21st, 2016

Bearings with concentrically arranged rings (races) are manufactured as relatively simple geometrical assemblies. The deep-grooved rings trap a set of toughened balls and create a balanced interaction zone between the spheroids and the steel bands. The assembled parts work in tandem, with the uniform dimensions of the balls generating an efficient force handling profile, one […]

Engineers have to overcome big challenges when incorporating bearings into their designs. They select the friction mitigators to carry a burden but balance this feature against rotational fluency. The load is heavy or light, and the velocity of the bearing is fast or slow, leading to designs that are necessarily tasked with a number of […]

A Simple Guide in Keeping Ball Bearings from Failure

Blog | January 21st, 2016

When bearings function as designed, they’re the very personification of fluid action. Ball bearings, workhorse handlers of radial friction, work as a blur, with the concentrically arranged metal spheres smearing into a single fast-turning whole when regulating rotational forces. It’s a thing of beauty when the operational domain is properly functioning, but, should the bearings […]

Applications and Uses of Tapered Roller Bearings

Blog | January 13th, 2016

Not every industry or application restricts its rotating parts to a lateral operational plane. Shearing forces and axial thrust work in tandem to jeopardise such two-dimensional functions, pushing a drive axis in directions that cause mechanical stress. A standard roller bearing may not be up to snuff in this scenario, which leaves designers scrambling to […]
