Plain bearing design may be simple or complex. It may amount to picking a bearing from a catalog on the basis of PV factor or may require a sophisticated analysis of lubricant flow. Most slow moving ...

Adding new features and capabilities to bearings improves productivity and lowers costs. Bearings have long been used to reduce friction, support loads, locate shafts, and reinforce system rigidity.

Significant operating and economic benefits can be realized by replacing a poorly functioning or damaged oil-lubricated turbine guide bearing with a water-lubricated design (Figure 1), as part of a ...

It is not much of an exaggeration to say that the whole wind turbine industry rides on bearings. Wind turbines operate under arduous conditions. The bearings used in them must work reliably and have a ...

The challenge that machine tool builders face when designing spindles for milling machines and lathes is selecting bearings with the optimal balance of speed, load-carrying capacity, stiffness, and ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Historically, posterior stabilized and cruciate-retaining knee bearings have been popular bearing types among ...

Bearings, though buried deep within a vehicle, are on the forefront in contributing to drivetrain efficiencies and delivering reliability for automotive manufacturers. However, the changing face of ...

Bearings are often-overlooked components that bring life to your bicycle. You can’t steer, roll, pedal or have a functioning drivetrain without bearings. Basically, anything that moves on your bike ...
