At light loads an externally pressurized sleeve bearing tends to be stiffest, followed by rolling-element bearings and self-acting sleeve bearings. As loads increase, the rolling-element bearing ...

Wind turbines are fitted with multiple bearings that each wear differently. Today, larger stresses in larger turbines are testing conventional bearing designs, particularly in mainshafts. Photo ...

19 March 2018 – SKF SimPro Quick is a single-shaft bearing simulation tool that has been developed to quickly evaluate the design of bearing arrangements and their field performance based on relevant ...

A report issued earlier this year from ABS indicates that larger ships, driven by the latest generation of very high-powered diesel engines, are particularly susceptible to alignment problems on the ...

Cam followers convert rotary to linear motion and range from simple two-dimensional cams to complex three-dimensional indexing cams with several followers. In linear-motion applications, cam followers ...
