Extend the service life of the bearing, master these points

As an important joint part of mechanical equipment, in order to prolong the service life of the bearing, daily maintenance is inevitable. In order to make the bearing use more properly, the cutting life is longer. Through the understanding of all aspects of the bearing, we will share the bearing. The daily maintenance and maintenance knowledge, as long as you master these points, there is no problem with the life of the bearing.

First of all, in order to fully utilize the bearings and maintain their proper performance for a long time, regular maintenance (regular inspection) must be performed.

Second, in the regular inspection of bearings, if there is a fault, early detection must be done to prevent accidents, which is very important to improve productivity and economy.

Third, the bearings are coated with an appropriate amount of anti-rust oil and packaged with anti-rust paper. As long as the package is not damaged, the quality of the bearing will be guaranteed.

Fourth, if the bearing is stored for a long time, it is recommended to store it on a shelf 30cm above the ground under the condition of humidity below 65% and temperature of about 20 °C. In addition, the storage place should avoid direct sunlight or contact with cold walls.

Fifth, when cleaning the bearing during the maintenance of the bearing, the steps to be carried out are as follows:

a. First, when the bearing is removed and inspected, the appearance record is first made by photography. Also, verify the amount of lubricant remaining and sample the lubricant before cleaning the bearings.

b. The cleaning of the bearing is carried out by rough washing and fine washing, and a metal mesh frame can be placed on the bottom of the used container.

c. When rough washing, remove the grease or adhesive with a brush or the like in the oil. At this time, if the bearing is rotated in the oil, be careful that the rolling surface will be damaged by foreign matter or the like.

d. During fine washing, slowly rotate the bearing in the oil and carefully. The cleaning agent generally used is a neutral non-aqueous diesel oil or kerosene, and a warm alkali liquid or the like is sometimes used as needed. Regardless of which cleaning agent is used, it is often filtered and kept clean.

e. Immediately after cleaning, apply anti-rust oil or anti-rust grease to the bearing.

Sixth, when carrying out bearing disassembly and installation, be sure to use professional tools and corresponding safety steps for good bearing installation and removal.
