Based on simulation methods and calculation tools developed by the Schaeffler Group and presented in the first part of this paper, three approaches regarding increased efficiency based on rolling bearings are presented.
In order to make better purchasing
decisions about centrifuge applications,
one must understand the concept of
centrifuges and the drives that operate
this equipment.
This paper provides an overview of the more common position sensor options and references actual case studies to
illustrate the diverse solutions available and the reasons behind some of the decisions. Three cases are used to illustrate the needs of different applications leading to the choice of a particular type of position sensor. The cases reviewed include a gantry crane, wind turbine and aerial cable car.
The world of high horsepower drives often calls for mechanical design to be approached from different perspectives. As motors, gearboxes and machines increase in size, power density can become disproportionate from one driveline component to the next, emphasizing the need for more rugged, robust and compact equipment.
Many power transmission components require a certain level of customization
for each individual project. The big bearing market is no exception. Construction, mining, steel, marine and
wind applications aren’t exactly areas
where customers buy bearings in bulk.
