Lubrication is one of the critical factors that can help enhance the performance and service life of components when carrying out machinery maintenance. This blog focuses on the basic principles of bearing lubrication, particularly on plain bearings. However, bearing lubrication is more than just introducing oil or grease into the bearing; it involves,...

Slewing bearings, also called slewing rings or turntables, are devices employed in different machines and equipment requiring the rotating action of two or more which are parts of the machine. These bearings enable the assembly to withstand axial, radial and tilting moment loads and can be used for many applications. In excavators, construction cranes,...

Various industries seek novel methods to enhance their operations and are rapidly embracing the modernization of processes through automation. One of the adopted alternatives is a magnetic bearing, which offers a high-performance substitute for traditional mechanical bearings. Unlike their conventional counterparts, magnetic bearings utilize electromagnetic...

Magnetic bearings are a game changer because they allow for the non-contact support of rotating parts in machines. In sharp contrast to traditional bearings, which depend on bearing surfaces to contact and rub against one another, the shafts of magnetic bearings are suspended in a magnetic field and do not experience contact, friction, or wear. This...

Bushings, or plain bearings, occupy an important place in mechanical systems thanks to their simple design, which is cheap as well. Detail rolling bearings transfer motion through rolling elements, whereas sliding surfaces are used in plain bearing, which transfers significant bearing loads; this feature leads to a wide application of plain bearing...
