Load sensing bearings with fibre optic sensors allow designers to analyse and measure bearing loads in real-time, helping to accelerate the design cycle. The bearings are interchangeable with ...

Blueprinting has become an abused term. For those who build their own engines—or at least want to know how to check clearances like valve-to-piston on an existing engine—we will offer some techniques ...

Sensorized bearings measure load, rotational position, velocity, and force to better control industrial and automotive applications. We'll review a few of their most common uses shortly. The sensing ...

The primary job of an engine bearing is to establish a low-friction interface for a rotating shaft. Most bearings today are half-round assemblies used around crankshafts, for example. While you might ...

Although performance bearings aren't the first thing you think of when defining the specifications for a high-performance engine, and they probably won't do much to increase engine output, they are ...

Liebherr-Component Technologies AG has developed a digital condition monitoring system for slewing bearings, used in equipment such as mining, material handling and maritime equipment. The new bearing ...

Bearing torque is defined as the torque needed to overcome both static and dynamic friction between a bearing’s inner and outer rings. Bearing torque is defined as the torque needed to overcome both ...
