Single-Row and Double-Row Ball Bearings: How Do They Differ?
Blog | December 13th, 2022A ball bearing is a rolling-element bearing that uses balls to separate the bearing races. The function of a ball bearing is to reduce rotational friction while simultaneously sustaining radial and axial pressures. Ball bearings have been around for hundreds of years and have been used in a variety of applications — from hard drives […]
Couplings: Variations, Applications, and Functions
Blog | November 30th, 2022The mechanical devices known as couplings are those utilised to transmit torque or power from one shaft to another. They find applications in many different fields of business today. Power may be transmitted in a variety of ways thanks to the existence of gear configurations. People with a transmission power of that kind will benefit […]
The Mechanical Requirements for Bushings
Blog | November 20th, 2022When a lubrication film is present between two comparably moving surfaces, the friction conditions of the two contact surfaces can be categorised as hydrodynamic lubrication, boundary lubrication, or solid lubrication, depending on the nature of the lubrication film. Continue reading to discover more about the technical conditions that must be met to keep Bushings in […]
The Contributing Variables to Bearing Performance
Blog | November 7th, 2022Manufacturers in nearly every industry — food processing, steel fabrication, aerospace, and medical devices, to name a few — are steadily increasing the performance expectations they have for rolling-element bearings while at the same time subjecting them to a wide variety of operating and environmental conditions. Although excellent performance is always expected, one thing that […]
The Untold Uses of Needle Roller Bearings
Blog | October 23rd, 2022There are numerous kinds of bearings, the most common of which are ball bearings, followed by tapered roller bearings, cylindrical roller bearings, and spherical roller bearings. Their construction satisfies unique technical criteria, making them suitable for a particular use. Among these is the needle roller bearing, which is not as well-known but is nevertheless necessary […]
