Plain bearings are an important part of machines and systems because they allow low-friction movement between two components, reducing wear. Unfortunately, plain bearings can also suffer damage that can lead to machine failures. This blog post explains how plain bearings are damaged and how you can systematically analyse and avoid that damage. How are plain […]
Damage to plastic plain bearings is often the result of improper assembly, incorrect structural design or incorrect material selection. On the one hand, the nature and mode of operation of the plastic plain bearings place some demands on the dimensioning, design and assembly of the bearing point. On the other hand, compared to metallic bearings, […]

Lubricating grease and ensuring or maintaining lubrication represent a major cost factor for the operation of many devices and systems. Everything that moves is subject to the laws of friction and wear. To minimise these effects, bearings and other moving parts are often lubricated with grease or oil. In many cases, the sufficient supply of […]
