Industrial Machinery Replacement

Motor-driven industrial machinery, including gearboxes, machine tools, conveyors, crushers, vibrating screens, textile equipment, rolling mills, forklifts and vehicles, needs replacement bearings matched to very different loads and speeds. Heavy shock, high spindle speed, extreme temperature and axial load each lead to a different bearing type and execution. Replacement buyers care most about keeping the original designation or having any alternative clearly identified and approved before ordering.

• Choose spherical roller bearings with suitable clearance for crushers, vibrating screens and other positions exposed to heavy shock, misalignment and shaft deflection.
• Specify super-precision angular contact or cylindrical roller bearings with the required precision class for machine tool spindles, where running accuracy and speed govern the choice.
• Check axial load direction and magnitude on gearboxes and vertical shafts when choosing between tapered roller, thrust ball and thrust roller bearings.
• State extreme operating conditions, such as high heat, low temperature or vacuum, and treat any technical change from the original designation as subject to buyer approval.
