Self-aligning Ball Bearing

Self-aligning ball bearings automatically compensate for misalignment, ensuring smooth, low-friction rotation.

Structural Features of Self-Aligning Bearings

Two Main Types: Available as self-aligning ball bearings with spherical rolling elements or self-aligning roller bearings with cylindrical or barrel-shaped rollers.

High Adaptability: Automatically compensates for shaft misalignment or axis deviations, ensuring reliable operation under imperfect conditions.

Inner Ring Options: Can feature a single inner ring with dual spherical raceways or two separate inner rings, offering greater flexibility and higher load capacity.

Application Environments

Self-aligning ball bearings are ideal for applications with shaft misalignment, variable loads, or structural movement. Common uses include:

Construction Machinery: Tower cranes, overhead cranes, and other heavy equipment where structural movement requires bearing adaptability.

Paper & Textile Machinery: Compensate for shaft deflection during long operating hours, maintaining smooth motion.

Wind Turbines: Handle irregular loads and bent shafts for reliable energy generation.

Mining & Metallurgical Equipment: Bearings cope with heavy loads on unstable foundations, reducing maintenance and improving operational efficiency.


Key Design Features

Automatic Alignment: Compensates for misalignment from shaft bending or mounting errors.

Versatile Load Support: Handles high radial loads and moderate axial loads efficiently.

Reduced Friction & Wear: Self-aligning design minimizes internal friction, extending service life.

Maintenance-Friendly: Reduces installation complexity and the need for frequent adjustments.


Engineering Solutions

Correct Alignment Errors: Automatically adapts to installation or operational misalignments.

Stable Under Complex Loads: Maintains reliable performance under variable or multi-directional loads.

Simplified Installation: Self-centering function enables faster, easier assembly without high-precision skills.

Lower Maintenance Costs: Reduces breakdowns and downtime, improving overall equipment efficiency.
