Recognizing the signs of roller bearing damage. Emerson Bearing Boston shares tips on when to replace roller bearings.

March 11, 2024 //  by admin

BOSTON, MA… It can be difficult to know when to replace your roller bearing since the amount of time between the initial damage and when the bearing becomes unserviceable can differ significantly. 

Emerson Bearing, a Boston, MA-based bearing company catering to niche markets nationwide and the sister company of Action Bearing which serves the New England market, shares tips for recognizing the signs of roller bearing damage and the need for timely replacement.

High-speed bearings can be destroyed in seconds. Low-speed bearings can take months to break down. Early diagnosis of a damaged bearing is essential so that the bearing can be replaced before it fails completely, at which point it can also damage the machine and other components.

Look for these common reasons for roller bearing damage:

Handling damage – Damage caused by rough transport or installation often exhibits as denting or nicking; raised metal due to contact with roller edges.

Cage damage – Bearings that were dropped or incorrectly installed often result in cage damage. When this occurs, rollers tend to skew and bind, and the cage ring gets obstructed during operation or installation.

Preload/overload damage – Excessive bearing preload or overload can damage roller bearings in different ways. Preload settings that are too tight could also lead to cone bore contraction. Full race width fatigue spalling can occur due to heavy loads that create a layer of lubricant and high temperatures.

Deformations – Roller bearing deformations can occur in several different ways. Excess heat can cause metal flow, which can result in rib face deformations in the bearing cones. Deformation can cause rollers to skew and the bearing to lock up entirely.

Fatigue spalling – This is a type of damage to the metal surface. Inclusion spalling results from oxides or other hard inclusions in the steel of the bearing. Point surface spalling occurs because a raised surface or debris exceeds the thickness of the bearing lubrication film. In both types of spalling, the metal will begin breaking away from the raceway.

“By identifying early indications of damage, bearings can be replaced during regular roller bearing maintenance, which ultimately prevents costly, unexpected downtime due to bearing failure,” said Steve Katz, president of Emerson Bearing. “Machines should be monitored for unusual noise, vibration, and temperature and the causes of these symptoms should be addressed promptly to prevent further damage to the system.”

Spindle Bearing Success. Emerson Bearing Shares 3 Key Factors in Machine Tool Bearing Selection.

October 11, 2023 //  by admin

BOSTON, MA… Emerson Bearing, a Boston, MA-based bearing company catering to niche markets nationwide and the sister company of Action Bearing which serves the New England market, shares 3 factors for spindle bearing success in machine tool applications. 
 
Today’s machine tools rely on various specialized components that allow them to operate smoothly and efficiently while holding tight tolerances. High quality precision bearings are particularly important to the accuracy and reliability of machining equipment as they are responsible for directing and enhancing spindle movement. These components generally consist of balls or rollers that are positioned between inner and outer raceways. 
 
Ceramic hybrid spindle bearings can provide increased spindle speed, improved stiffness, and enhanced resistance to high temperatures. The ceramic balls used in these bearings operate at lower temperatures, which prolongs the service life of lubricants. They also operate at lower vibration levels, resulting in increased spindle rigidity.  
 
Other common types of bearings include high precision cylindrical roller bearings, angular contact bearings and ball screw support bearings. 
 
When selecting ball or roller bearings, there are three key factors to keep in mind: contact angle, preload, and system rigidity. 
 
Contact Angle is the line of contact along which the ball bearing touches the raceways of the assembly. This angle is determined by the thrust loading and radial play. Ideally, the contact angle should be 15°—this is the optimal balance between axial and radial capacity and rigidity. To increase the axial rigidity, some systems have a contact angle of 25°. No matter which angle works best for your system, it’s essential to choose the bearings that operate best at the given angle. 
 
Preload is a force that holds the raceway and rolling element surfaces under pressure. It’s a constant elastic compressive force that stops the parts from moving in an uncontrolled manner (either axially or radially) even when they’re under load. The right bearings will tolerate this additional force without breakage. 
 
System Rigidity. Machine tools generate several different forces that ball and roller bearings need to be able to account for. Factors such as housing stiffness and bearing stiffness determine the machine’s system rigidity and ability to produce consistently precise results. 
 
Supporting the unique needs of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) markets across the nation, Emerson Bearing experts can assist with selection of the appropriate bearings, maintenance tips and more.

Inventory Matters 
With over four million bearings in stock at multiple price points, Emerson Bearing has the largest inventory of bearings on the East Coast under one roof in their 30,000 square foot warehouse.  
 
Over the years, Emerson Bearing has sourced bearings for companies in a variety of industries including machine tool, material handling, power generation, food processing, robotics, recreation, wastewater treatment, and other industries. Emerson Bearing’s large inventories result in faster turnaround times, and their long-lasting relationships with industry partners means they can source bearings quickly.

Emerson Bearing Boston offers Food Processors “Super” Bearings for Severe Service Environments

August 9, 2016 //  by admin

emerson bearingPremature bearing failure in equipment is a significant issue for seafood, meat and other food processors. Emerson Bearing Boston, a bearing company catering to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) markets around the world, has announced the availability of Stand-Off Series Mounted Bearing Units, “super” bearings that can handle severe service environments, particularly those applications that are a challenge to the survival of the bearing.

Severe service environments in the food processing industry are those that have conditions which contribute to the premature failure of the bearing, such as chemical, submerged or wash-down environments, vibrating or impact environments and those with high or low temperatures. For example, an environment processing food that goes into fryers. The bearing goes into the hot oil with the chicken nuggets or fish cakes.

Survival of the Fittest…Bearing

Emerson Bearing now offers corrosion resistant Stand-Off Series Mounted Bearing Units. With food processing requiring frequent wash downs of machinery often leading to premature bearing failure, these field-retrofittable integrated bearing stand-offs perform the task to a higher level, and allow users and inspectors full access to the space between the bearing and the frame. In this whole new approach, it eliminates any area between the bearing and housing where dirt and bacteria may accumulate, thereby enabling OEMs and users to better meet stringent sanitation standards for cleaning and inspection. Plastic caps for these bearings are also available through Emerson.

Food processing that involves fryers, another severe environment, requires bearings that can endure extremely high heat and withstand submersion in hot oil. Emerson Bearing also carries a special Fryer Bearing, which is a flange bearing unit that has a C4 fit which allows for thermal expansion.

“If wash down or chemicals cause premature bearing failure, or if food safety and contamination is an issue even though USDA and other programs are in place, these new sanitary bearings are ideal,” explained Steve Katz, president of Emerson Bearing. “Other factors, such as changing a bearing more than once a year or greasing a bearing at least once a week, are also indicative of the need for these ‘super’ bearings for severe service environments.”

EB_logo2C_tagline_5in

Due to increased demand nationwide, Emerson Bearing Boston, a supplier of bearings and related products catering to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) markets around the world, has created a special division to cater to the plastic processing and forming industry. 

In the U.S., the plastics industry is the third largest manufacturing industry and there are more than 16,200 plastics facilities, according to SPI, the plastics industry trade association. Emerson Bearing’s growing plastics clientele spans the nation and includes manufacturers of plastic wine corks, plastic bags, plastic strapping and other products.

Emerson Bearing’s industry specialist, Bill Zylicz, leads the dedicated plastics division. The company caters to plastic processing and forming manufacturers across the U.S. in two major categories – extruder and injection molding machines. In an extruder, the processed plastic is pressed through a nozzle into a profiled die. The extruder gearbox is subject to high torques as well as high radial and axial loads. Injection molding machines are used for the production of parts in large quantities. The screw feed and the linear bearings must be insensitive to heat and vibration and have high basic static and dynamic load ratings.

When it comes to supplying bearings to the plastic processing and forming industry, ensuring that the bearings are able to withstand heat and vibration is just part of the equation. Zylicz assists clients in determining which bearing technologies would be most suitable by taking into consideration the specifications, recommendations, maintenance strategies, fatigue life and wear resistance of bearings in relation to the application. 

“In order to keep with production schedules, regular monitoring, maintenance and replacement of bearings is critical,” said Steve Katz, president of Emerson Bearing. “Manufacturers turn to us for our expertise, competitive pricing and overall reliability. We offer a vast inventory and 24/7 service, which helps them avoid costly down-time.”
