Industrial Turntable Bearings
Whether you're planning to buy a new industrial turntable or you're trying to replace an existing one, there are certain things you should know about the different types. In this article, we'll cover axial/radial bearings, Slewing ring bearings, and ball-bearing turntables.
Axial/radial bearings
Whether you are in the process of manufacturing a product or building a machine, you'll need to select the right industrial turntable bearings. Designed to handle a variety of load types, these precision bearings are made for use in applications requiring high-precision performance.
These bearings have a wide range of sizes and features. Depending on your application, you'll find bearings designed to handle radial and axial loads, as well as combined loads. You can choose between a wide range of different products, such as slewing bearings, cam followers, roller bearings, ball bearings, and rod end bearings.
Axial radial bearings are ready-to-fit precision bearings that are perfect for high-precision applications. These bearings are low-friction and can handle radial and axial loads. They also have a high load carrying capacity and are suitable for applications that require low-speed performance. They are available in a variety of radial and axial configurations, and are available in a variety of materials.
When choosing your industrial turntable bearings, you'll want to consider your load size, load direction, and turn-in speed. You'll also want to ensure that you choose a quality bearing, as excessive torque can lead to damage to the bearing and decrease its life.
Ball-bearing turntables
Using Industrial turntable bearings, a worker can rotate a piece of machinery or a heavy load. These turntable bearings are also known as slewing ring bearings, and can be used for both radial and axial loads. They can also be used to support heavy slow-turning loads. Typically, slewing ring bearings are used to support horizontal platform applications.
Industrial turntable bearings are available in many varieties. The best types are those that are compatible with a wide range of products and applications. For example, these turntable bearings can work with welding tables and automated equipment. They also can handle radial, thrust, and continuous low-speed rotation.
Turntable bearings are thin-section ball bearings that have holes in the outer and inner rings. These holes make them easier to mount in industrial applications. The rings are made from zinc-plated steel to prevent rust. They also provide corrosion resistance in hazardous environments.
The YRT series of axial/radial bearings is available with a cage-guided preloaded cylindrical roller set. They are ready to fit, and offer high-precision running. They are available with pitch-coded reference marks. These bearings can also have a lubrication groove on the L-section ring.
Slewing ring bearings
Whether used in turntable bearings or robotics, slewing ring bearings are a common part of industrial machinery. These bearings are designed to provide smooth rotation under heavy loads. Slewing ring bearings have two or more concentric rings, typically a large outer ring and an inner ring. The inner ring usually incorporates a gear. The outer ring is screwed into place using evenly spaced mounting holes.
Slewing ring bearings are used in a variety of industrial applications, including mining and packaging machinery. They can support heavy, slow-turning loads, and can also accommodate radial and tilting moment loads.
Slewing ring bearings can be driven by an external gear, drive-plate coupling, or an external belt. They can also be used in applications with a slow, oscillating rotation. Depending on the application, bearings can be made from various rigid materials.
Ball-bearing slewing rings are available in various corrosion-resistant designs. They feature bore diameters of at least 50 millimeters. They also feature a four-point contact raceway geometry that accommodates three different loading scenarios.
Swivel lock
Depending on the model, swivel lock industrial turntable bearings are available in zinc plating or stainless steel. The latter is corrosion-resistant in hazardous environments. In addition, they are made of Zamak alloy and offer excellent running and load capacity. The casters have a large lock lever that makes steering simple and smooth. They are also ideal for frequent use. The load capacity can be up to 500kg and the wheels are made of durable PU.
There are three internal compression springs that provide up to 30kg of spring tension. This provides the exact tension needed for water tight seals. It also compensates for the gasket set. These castors are available in a variety of mounting options including tapped holes, center holes, stems, and welding screws. They can be customized by painting the swivel section in high temperature paint. The overall stack height will be about three inches.
These turntables are available in the 47, 48, and 65 Series. The 47 Series turntables are available in zinc plating, and the 48 and 65 Series turntables are available in stainless steel.
