German ASK Kugellagerfabrik bearings, ASK Kugellagerfabrik models, ASK Kugellagerfabrik prices

ASK Kugellagerfabrik bearings are precision mechanical components that convert sliding friction between the rotating shaft and the bearing housing into rolling friction, thereby reducing frictional losses. Rolling bearings generally consist of four parts: inner ring, outer ring, rolling elements, and cage. The inner ring fits with the shaft and rotates with it; the outer ring fits with the bearing housing to provide support; the rolling elements are evenly distributed between the inner and outer rings by means of the cage, and their shape, size, and quantity directly affect the performance and service life of the rolling bearing; the cage ensures uniform distribution of the rolling elements, guides their rotation, and facilitates lubrication.

ASK Kugellagerfabrik bearing functions and structure

Supports the rotating shaft and components on the shaft, maintaining the normal working position and rotational accuracy of the shaft. Rolling bearings are easy to use and maintain, reliable in operation, have good starting performance, and offer high load capacity at medium speeds. Compared with plain bearings, rolling bearings have larger radial dimensions, poorer vibration damping capability, shorter service life at high speeds, and greater noise. The structure of a rolling bearing consists of the following parts: 1) Outer ring – installed in the bearing housing bore, generally does not rotate 2) Inner ring – installed on the shaft journal, rotates with the shaft 3) Rolling elements – the core component of the rolling bearing 4) Cage – separates the rolling elements evenly to prevent friction. Lubricant is also considered the fifth major component of a rolling bearing, primarily serving functions such as lubrication, cooling, and cleaning.

ASK Kugellagerfabrik bearing features

1). Significant energy savings. Due to the motion characteristics of rolling bearings, their friction is far lower than that of plain bearings, reducing power consumption caused by frictional resistance, thus achieving significant energy savings. Theoretical analysis and production practice show that small ball mills using rolling bearings for main bearings can save 30%~35% in electricity, medium-sized ball mills can save 15%~20%, and large ball mills can save up to 10%~20%. Since ball mills are major energy consumers in production, this translates into substantial cost savings. 2). Easy maintenance and reliable quality. Using rolling bearings eliminates complex maintenance processes with high technical requirements, such as smelting, casting, and scraping Babbitt metal, as well as oil supply and water cooling systems, greatly reducing maintenance workload. Moreover, since rolling bearings are manufactured by specialized producers, their quality is often guaranteed, bringing convenience to ball mill users.

ASK Kugellagerfabrik bearing lubrication

Mainly grease lubrication and oil lubrication. Grease lubrication offers less leakage, easier sealing, longer service life, simpler maintenance, and higher oil film strength, but has higher friction torque than oil lubrication and is not suitable for high-speed applications. The amount of grease filled in the bearing should not exceed 1/2 to 1/3 of the bearing space; otherwise, excessive stirring of the lubricant may cause overheating. Oil lubrication provides better cooling, but the sealing and oil supply devices are more complex. The viscosity of the oil is generally 0.12 to 0.2 cm²/s. Higher viscosity oils are recommended for heavy loads and high operating temperatures, while lower viscosity oils are suitable for high speeds. Lubrication methods include oil bath lubrication, drip oil lubrication, oil mist lubrication, spray oil lubrication, and pressure oil supply lubrication. In oil bath lubrication, the oil level should not be higher than the center of the lowest rolling element. If the bearing is designed and the lubricant viscosity selected according to elastohydrodynamic lubrication theory, the contact surfaces will be separated by an oil film. In this case, under stable load conditions, the bearing service life can be increased manyfold. Modern machinery, instruments, and other equipment are developing towards high speed, heavy load, precision, and lightweight designs, posing new requirements for rolling bearings, such as maintaining or even increasing rated load capacity while reducing size, adopting new technologies to improve manufacturing processes, enhancing manufacturing precision, and lowering costs. Standard rolling bearings can hardly meet diverse requirements; for mass-produced machinery and equipment, specialized bearings should be designed and manufactured. While strengthening standardization, variety should be increased, and the proportion of specialized bearings expanded. The development of modern industry also requires special bearings for specific operating conditions, such as bearings working at high speeds, high temperatures, low temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or in media such as acids and alkalis.
