Plain Bearings
A variety of tools has been available for creating plastic components and parts since before the breakthrough of additive manufacturing processes such as laser sintering and 3D printing. But now there is scarcely any limit to the imagination. The only problem is that, thanks to 3D printing, dreams of plastic are facing a rude awakening. It […]
Only one short work step left … and then it happens. The device refuses to work. The knee lever seizes, and the machine performs an emergency stop. The user has just one concern: “How long does the service technician need?” “Why can’t this piece of junk keep it together until I’m done with this urgent […]
And again the working platform cracks, squeaks and crunches when the hydraulics are actuated. If noise is generated during operation or the device even jams, it is often already too late. Once you (or the appointed service technician) have located and dismantled the bearing, it often flashes and shines at you. Something like that! A […]
Many metallic rolling bearings are available as a sealed version The sealing is usually absolutely necessary for metallic ball bearings as otherwise dirt can get into the ball running surfaces, mix with the lubricant and thus block the rolling of the bearing. Metallic bearings must be protected Metallic ball bearings are also available in an […]
The DIN 625 specifies the dimensions for single row radial deep groove ball bearings. It is the best known standard in the rolling bearing sector. Radial ball bearings (see picture) are among the most commonly used ball bearings and are designed to support predominantly radial forces. In addition to DIN 625, there is a separate […]
