Learn more about the types of bearings used in electric motors
The type of bearing used in a motor is one of the key components necessary for the proper functioning of the motor. Here are a few common types of motor bearings:
Ball bearings are one of the most common types and are suitable for handling small radial or axial loads and have the ability to operate at high speeds. In motors, ball bearings are often used to support the position between the motor's rotor and flange.
Roller bearings are capable of withstanding high loads and large radial loads and are typically used to support the position between the rotor and the end cover of a motor. They can also withstand large axial forces.
Tapered roller bearings are suitable for handling large radial and axial loads, and are mainly used to support the position between the motor housing and the flange.
Bearing sleeve
The bearing sleeve is an annular stationary part that mates with the bearing and supports the shaft. In motors, bearing sleeves are often used to support the shaft of the motor.
When selecting a motor bearing, factors such as speed, load capacity, space issues, and operating conditions need to be considered. Due to the harsh working environment of the motor, it is necessary to select the appropriate bearing type and size. In addition, it is also crucial to install the bearings correctly and must be done in accordance with the manufacturer's standards to avoid damage to the bearings due to improper installation.
In summary, it is essential to understand the type of bearing used in the motor and to correctly select and install the bearing for the stable operation and prolonged service life of the motor.
