Different machines, appliances, and devices that are used in commercial and industrial applications have ball bearings to make them work. Without ball bearings, some assembly will not be as effective as they should be. Repetitive use of products can lead to wear and tear. So, expect your ball bearings to fail and get damaged over […]
Different machines utilise the presence of bearings over their components. Bearings are often used to restrict relative motion to only the desired motion. They also enable rotational or linear movement of machine components. Moreover, bearings also reduce the friction between moving parts, which prevents wear and offers extended use of machines at high speeds. To […]
There is one great method of transmitting mechanical power from one place to another. This method is done through a chain drive, which utilises a roller chain and sprocket gear. The teeth of the gear are attached to the holes in the chain links. Once the gear is turned, it pulls the chain to supply […]
Correct lubrication in bearings is very critical to their performance. Strictly speaking, the lubricant in a bearing directly affects its maximum running speed, temperature, torque level, noise level, and lifespan. Good lubrication provides a thin film between the contact areas in a bearing, which can help in minimising unnecessary friction, dispersing heat, and preventing corrosion. […]
Turbine engines, vehicles, construction equipment, and other types of machinery utilise the use of machine elements. This specific element makes them move and function smoothly without any signs of slowdowns. All the rotation movement on the mentioned types of machinery rely heavily on bearings. What is the purpose of bearings? Bearings are vital to the […]
