What should be paid attention to when installing and replacing bearings?
Thursday 18th March 2021 Back to list
(1) The resultant force of the applied force passes through the axis of the bearing as much as possible, which requires the application point to be uniform, symmetrical and stable, and apply force through a spherical surface or parallel to the axis.
(2) The applied force should be stable and uniform, and should not be impacted. This requires the use of oil pressure or tools that can apply a smooth tension or pressure. When hammering is really necessary, it must be passed through a softer copper sleeve, etc. The non-falling metal is buffered, and the striking force is as gentle as possible. It is best to use a copper rod or copper hammer for hammering.
(3) Avoid applying force through rolling elements, which requires applying force through the inner ring when assembling and disassembling the inner ring (shaft ring), and applying force through the outer ring when assembling and disassembling the outer ring.
(4) The drag force should continue to the extent it should be. For example, when the bearing is installed, the force should be stopped when the bearing is just installed in the correct position to ensure that the end face of the ring (washer) abuts against the end face of the seat hole or the shoulder of the shaft. It cannot be squeezed too tightly, nor can it be installed incorrectly.
The slewing ring gear and swing bearings from Tensun are for many applications such like Forest equipment, tunneling machine with Combined Roller/Ball Slewing Bearing and three row roller slewing bearing have very high impact loading capacity. The installation please check the manuel accordingly.
