A bearing is a machine element that plays a crucial role in various mechanical devices. This specific machine element is intended to make components move to the desired motion smoothly and effectively without generating too much friction. Normally, the only movement possible for bearings is rolling as it produces a lower coefficient of friction compared […]
The way rolling element bearing move and function has been utilised by different applications. However, one key detail to consider in using this bearing is that it has a wide variety of selection and characteristics. For starters, one may rely on the documentation and tools provided by the bearing manufacturer to make the rolling element […]
Industrial and household machines that need to reduce the speed of an electric motor heavily maximise speed reducers. With speed reducers, machines are provided with the needed torque so that they can run safely and efficiently. As a transmission system, speed reducer gearboxes are often used as they offer high complexity and a wide variety […]
One of the most important machine components to date is bearings. Bearings are comprised of smooth rollers or metal balls that help reduce friction between moving parts in motion systems. They also have inner and outer surfaces or races that allow rollers or balls to travel. Instead of letting them slide to one another, bearings […]
Different industrial applications are using ball bearings as part of their specific equipment and machines. Ball bearings are intended to connect two machine members as their movement corresponds to one another. They intend to minimise the frictional resistance to motion so that the specific equipment or machine can work smoothly. Aside from reducing friction, ball […]
