Air Seal increases bearing life.
I-Seal Fail-Safe Air Seal prevents spindle bearing contamination. Unit incorporates I-Beam design that evenly distributes air film around bearing. Seal cannot be damaged due to loss of air pressure, because centrifugal force is used in conjunction with air pressure. Product works at any duty cycle and can be used in high-pressure coolant applications. Air pressure of 5-10 psi continuously purges...

Based on probabilistic network, BearingDetective decision support system is structured by modeling from possible causes to symptoms. Knowledge-based system searches its information base and provides suspected causes of bearing damage for application parameters that have been input into program; causes are ranked in order of highest probability to lowest. Network for bearing failure analysis has 4...

Read More »Hybrid Bearings have rolling elements 40% lighter than steel.
Hybrid bearings, including angular-contact ball bearings and cylindrical roller bearing, combine steel raceways with silicon-nitride balls. Dimensionally interchangeable with ISO dimensioned bearings, hybrid bearings provide resistance to wear. They can operate without oil, using process fluid as lubricant. Silicon nitride balls have 50% higher modulus of elasticity than steel, increasing bearing...
