Bearing service life extended on screens
FAG Spherical roller bearings for use in vibrating screens now provide an even longer service life, due to the improved displacement of function of the exciter shaft, running in a chrome plated bore

Precision bearings keep hydraulic systems running
Hydraulic drives and pumps require precision bearings and seals that are reliable, efficient and able to withstand the most demanding operating conditions, says Dr Steve Lacey of Schaeffler UK
This coating is resistant to weather influences, water, vapours, alkaline solutions, photographic developers and even some types of acids.
It ensures reduced frictional corrosion between bearing bore and shaft and in most cases avoids it completely.
Furthermore it leads to clearly improved wear behaviour of bearings operating in unlubricated condition or conditions of mixed friction.
The coating is bonded at a molecular level to the base material and resists high loads.
The principal dimensions of the bearing as well as the tolerances of form or position correspond to standard values.
A change of adjacent components is not required and the installation sequence can remain unchanged.
Vibrating screens are mainly used for sorting and classifying goods.
Along with other vibrating units they belong to the most highly stressed types of machines.
Spherical roller bearings with the new thin chromium plated bore ensure that the displacement between bearing bore and shaft is possible for a long period of operation. Request a free brochure from Schaeffler (UK) ...
