How to choose the right bearing according to application requirements?

When choosing bearings, we need to consider multiple factors and choose the right bearing according to the requirements.

1. Clarify application requirements

(1) Accuracy requirements

Does the rotation accuracy of the bearing need to meet the standard?

(2) Noise and vibration requirements

We need to clarify whether the application has special requirements for noise and vibration.

(3) Working environment

We need to consider environmental factors such as working temperature, humidity, and corrosive substances, and need to choose bearing materials and types that can adapt to these environmental factors.

2. Bearing type selection

(1) Ball bearings

Ball bearings, mainly deep groove ball bearings, thrust ball bearings and other types of ball bearings, are suitable for small and medium loads and high-speed operation.

(2) Roller bearings

Roller bearings are mainly used in heavy loads and low-speed operation.

(3) Special bearings

Bearings such as needle roller bearings and air bearings are mostly used in specific space restrictions or working environments.

(4) Consider cost and maintenance

On the premise of meeting performance requirements, we need to consider the cost and maintenance cost of the bearing and choose a bearing type with a higher cost performance.

When selecting bearings, we must choose suitable bearings according to application requirements and comprehensively consider these factors to ensure that the selected bearings can meet our application requirements and give full play to the best performance of the bearings.
