How to prolong the service life of bearings

Choose the right bearing
In order to select a more suitable bearing from a large number of structures and sizes, it is necessary to study from various angles. The specific method of bearing selection is as follows:
1. The bearing structure is determined

Considering the ease of arrangement, installation, and disassembly of the bearing as a shaft system, the allowable space and size of the bearing, and the marketability of the bearing, the bearing structure is roughly determined.

2. Service life

While comparing and studying the design life of various machinery using bearings and the various endurance limits of the bearings, the bearing size is determined. When selecting a bearing, it is often biased to consider only the fatigue life of the bearing. The grease life, wear and noise caused by the aging of the grease also need to be fully studied.

3. Determination of bearing use

According to different uses, it is necessary to select specially designed bearings for accuracy, clearance, cage structure, grease, etc. requirements. However, there is no certain order and rules for selecting bearings. The priority should be considered for the requirements of the bearing, performance, and more related matters, which is especially practical.
