What You Need to Know About Bearing Rings
Ring forgings of bearing types are one of the vital components in mechanical engineering. They are generally composed of an outer circular shaft sleeve and an inner hole, and they cooperate with the shaft. At Songjie, bearing rings we provide shine brightly in their respective fields due to their excellent performance and quality. So, what types of such ring forgings are there exactly? What unique advantages do they possess? And in which specific scenarios are they typically applied? Let’s explore these questions together in this article!
Bearing Rings Types
At Songjie, based on the shapes and application requirements of the bearing ring forgings customized by different customers, we have subdivided them into deep groove ball bearing rings, tapered roller bearing rings, thrust ball bearing rings, cylindrical roller bearing rings, angular contact ball bearing rings, flanged bearing rings, sealed bearing rings, integral and separable bearing rings, self-aligning ball bearing rings, and so on. The performance and application scenarios of different types of ring forgings vary. Therefore, we support the customization of various bearing rings to meet the needs of more customers.
Bearing Rings Performance
The performances of different types of bearing rings vary. The following are their main advantages:
- Strong load-bearing capacity and excellent wear resistance
- Extremely high machining precision and low noise
- Good corrosion resistance and high strength
- Suitable for various complex working environments
- Simple structure, facilitating installation and disassembly
- High reliability and long service life
- High rotational speed and good anti-fatigue performance
- Among them, the self-aligning ball bearing ring is also capable of automatic alignment
Bearing Rings Application
1. Automobile Manufacturing Field
Bearing rings are indispensable in many parts of this field and play an important role. They are mainly applied to the hubs, rear drive axles, steering gears, gearboxes, engines, transmission systems, steering systems, suspension systems and other parts of automobiles. This kind of ring can not only bear large radial and axial loads, but also ensure the sensitivity and precision of steering, and guarantee the efficient and reliable transmission of power, thus ensuring the stability and safety of automobile driving. Moreover, by using bearing rings in the automobile production line, the annual lubrication and maintenance cost can be saved by 120,000 yuan per unit.
2. Wind Power Industry
The performance requirements of bearing rings in wind power equipment are extremely stringent. They need to withstand huge wind forces, high speeds, heavy loads, impacts, and fatigue loads during long-term operation, playing a crucial supporting and guiding role. Generally, these ring forgings are used in components such as wind turbines, fan impellers, gearboxes, yaw devices, hydraulic systems, and pitch systems. Among them, self-aligning ball bearing rings have become the first choice for the main shafts of wind turbines due to their strong load-bearing capacity and self-aligning characteristics.
3. Mechanical Manufacturing
In this field, bearing rings play an important role as key components. They are mainly used in machine tool spindles, crushers, paper machines, compressors, excavators, bulldozers and other equipment. Bearing rings not only ensure machining accuracy, surface quality, and can withstand large radial loads and bidirectional axial loads, but also improve the operating efficiency of the equipment, reduce equipment wear, and extend the service life of the equipment.
In addition to the above, bearing rings are also applied in industries such as aerospace, home appliances, medical care, new energy, and robotics.
Conclusion
It can be seen that bearing rings supplied by Songjie, as key components in multiple industries, are not only diverse in type and possess multiple performance advantages, but also have a wide range of applications. Moreover, bearing ring forgings of different types each have their own unique characteristics and applications, playing an important role and value in ensuring the reliable operation of equipment and maximizing economic benefits.
