DISCOVER WHAT COMPONENTS MAKE UP A TYPICAL AUTOMATIC LUBRICATION SYSTEM Lubrication is critical in ensuring equipment keeps moving and your operating costs are reduced. Without proper lubrication, your equipment can suffer from downtime and reduced life, which impacts your company’s bottom line. Automatic lubrication could be the answer. The right lubricant, in the right quantity, …
The above Table 3.2 lists typical abnormal bearing sounds and their causes. Please note that the descriptions of some of these sounds are rather subjective and thus could vary considerably from person to person
Slewing ring bearings, or turntable bearings, are ball or roller style bearings composed of two concentric rings either of which may include a gear. This type of bearing enhances load support and power transmission in all directions, and is typically employed to support heavy loads for slow applications and large equipment such as earth excavators …
The hazards of moisture are reflected in two aspects: direct damage to the metal surface, and damage to the lubricating oil/grease, the latter indirectly causing bearing damage. The hazards of water to bearings are in the following ways: 1. Hydrogen-induced cracking: Also known as hydrogen embrittlement or hydrogen damage, it can cause metal damage, but …
Vibrating Screens are also known as Shaker Screens. Bearings in these applications are subjected to very severe operating conditions. The shaking action of the screen subjects the bearings to very heavy loads including impact loads. Additional loading on the bearing is created by the higher “g” forces generated by higher acceleration present in the application. …
