  • The 5 Major Benefits of Plastic Bearings
    Some engineers hesitate to use plastic bearings in their designs. Maybe they have trusted metal and bronze bearings for years or they simply don't think plastics can handle the tough applications or environments. Plastic bearings, however, can endure extreme temperatures, heavy loads and high
  • Exploring the Capabilities of Full Ceramic Bearings
    Full ceramic bearings are made of ceramic rings and balls with a non-metallic retainer and seals. Full ceramic bearings are excellent for high-speeds, low friction, and offer exceptional resistance to corrosion and elevated temperatures. However, one very important difference is that load ratings
  • Gas Bearing Design for Non-air Applications
    on the gas temperature and the type of gas. The gas bearing must be designed to run stably over the complete operating range of parameters, throughout the entire speed range and for a range of manufacturing tolerances. As an example the smallest gas bearing clearance is critical at high temperatures
  • Improvement of Tilting-Pad Journal Bearing Operating Characteristics by Application of Eddy Grooves
    In high speed, high load fluid-film bearings, the laminar-turbulent flow transition can lead to a considerable reduction of the maximum bearing temperatures, due to a homogenization of the fluid-film temperature in radial direction. Since this phenomenon only occurs significantly in large bearings
  • Bearing Performance Improvement
    temperatures, especially at medium to high loads and sliding speeds. At high sliding speeds, eddy groove technology clearly outperforms CuCr base material and thereby pushes the limits of bearings and applications considerably.
  • Talk About Speed and Life
    A bearings rated speed is given based on being lubricated with oil or grease and with moderate temperature and light loads. As temperature goes up and/or load is increased, the life of the bearing will be shortened. CSL cannot change that. However, when using CSL in place of oil or grease

Over the past few decades, the refrigeration industry has. transitioned from reciprocating compressors to rotary. screws in most applications. Screw compressors used on. ammonia maintain much lower discharge temperatures. than
