How To Use Linear Bearings Correctly

When the linear bearing is damaged or stops rotating, it is very unfavorable for the mechanical equipment, which will cause the gears of the mechanical equipment to wear out. In this article, let's talk about the use of linear bearings.

1: Choose the right one

The choice of linear bearings is not about the price, but whether it is suitable or not. The metal hardness, metal stability, size, etc. of the linear bearing need to meet the requirements of the use of mechanical equipment. For some replaced linear bearings, the performance in all aspects needs to be consistent with the old linear bearings, and should not be changed at will.

2: Correct operation

The axis of the linear bearing must not be offset from the main shaft. When operating, pay attention to the rotation of the mechanical equipment itself. If the equipment itself fails, it will also cause various failures of major metal parts.

3: The environment is correct

Linear bearings need to avoid all kinds of high temperature, humidity and pollution, no matter the storage environment or the environment in which they are used. During the normal maintenance of mechanical equipment, the linear bearing should be scrubbed to ensure efficient use.

4: Replace correctly

The replacement cycle of the linear bearing depends on the specific use time, ranging from 3 months to one year. When replacing the linear bearing, it is necessary to ensure the correct installation position and appropriate installation method.

5: Correct maintenance

The main maintenance work of the linear bearing is lubrication. It can only be used normally when the lubrication is good. It is necessary to formulate a maintenance plan and have a good maintenance habit.
