Frequently Asked Questions ( FAQ ) :

 

Q: When selecting bearings, what should we need to consider ?

A : The precision of the bearings (dimension tolerance, loading rate), internal clearance and hardness under heat treatment, structure of cage and material.

Q:The advantage of FAG Bearing ??

A :

(1) Reduce friction and wear.

To prevent metal contact and reduce friction and wear in the contact part of the bearing ring,

rolling body and maintainer.

(2) Prolong fatigue life.

The rolling fatigue life of the bearing, in the rotation, the rolling contact surface lubrication good,

then extended. Conversely, the oil viscosity is low, the lubricating film thickness is not good,

then shortened.

(3) Exhaust friction heat and cooling.

The circulation to oil method can be used to exhaust the heat generated by friction, or from external

heat, cooling. Prevent the bearing from overheating and prevent the lubricating oil from ageing itself.

Q: What are the Application area of FAG Bearings ?

A :  It can cover almost all mechanical industries, including robotic systems, lathes, tools, automobiles, large equipment, and so on.
