See Premium Publisher Program DD] ** Search this PAGE ONLY, click on Magnifying Glass ** A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion and reduces friction between moving parts to only the desired motion, The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear ‘movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts, Many bearings also facilitate the desired motion as much as possible, such as by minimizing friction, Bearings are classified broadly according to the type of operation, the motions allowed, or to the directions of the loads (forces) applied to the parts, ‘© Angular Contact Bearings - Review Angular contact bearings are constructed such that their races and the bearing balls contact points are at some angle relative to the axis ofthe operating axis of the bearing. ‘= Angular / Radial Contact Bal Bearings Static Load Rating Static load rating for Angular / Radial Contact Ball Bearings, use the following the equation: © Ball and Roller Bearing Analysis for Loading and Selection Formulas and Calculator + Ball Bearings Design, Construction, and Mounting Premium Membership required to access + Ball Bearings Designations, Loading, Assembly Configurations AFBMA Code and Description - Ball Bearings ‘Ball Bearings Fatigue Life Calculations and Load Ratings Fatigue life calculations assume the dispersion in life of identical ball bearings operating under identical conditions, a statistical result is obtained for bearing fatigue life. ‘Ball Bearings Application and Standard Designations The single-row deep-groove radial contact ball bearings will take radial load well and some thrust load. + Ball Screw Support Bearings Ball screw is a mechanical linear actuator that translates rotational ‘motion to linear motion with litle friction + Ball Bearings ABEC Tolerances The ABEC scale is an industry accepted standard for the tolerances of ball bearing, It was developed by the Annular Bearing Engineering Committee (ABEC) of the ‘American Bearing Manufacturers Association (ABMA) + Bearing Shaft and Housing Installation Tolerances Size and fit tolerances for bearing mating shafts and housing are provided within the tables below are defined by ISO tolerances for shafts and housings (ISO 286) in conjunction with the tolerances Admp for the bore and ADmp for the outside diameter ofthe bearings per.
