When using linear rolling bearings, attention should be paid to the following aspects:
1. Correct installation: When installing linear rolling bearings, ensure the matching degree between the bearing and the guide rail or guide rail to avoid bearing damage or unstable operation due to poor assembly. At the same time, ensure that the bearings are installed in the correct position and direction to ensure that the bearings can function properly.
2. Proper lubrication: Regularly lubricate the linear rolling bearing to ensure that the rolling element can smoothly roll inside the bearing, reducing friction and wear. Choose suitable lubricants and lubricate according to the manufacturer's recommendations and requirements to avoid bearing damage caused by insufficient or excessive lubrication.
3. Avoid overload: Avoid linear rolling bearings bearing loads exceeding their rated load capacity to prevent bearing damage or premature wear. During use, appropriate bearing models and specifications should be selected based on the actual load situation, and the working load should be ensured to be within the rated load range of the bearing.
4. Pollution prevention: Prevent the linear rolling shaft from being exposed to external pollutants, especially dust, foreign objects, etc. These pollutants may cause increased friction, unstable operation, and even damage to the bearing. Regularly clean and maintain the bearings and their surrounding environment to ensure that the bearings are in a clean state.
5. Avoid vibration and impact: Avoid linear rolling shafts from being subjected to significant vibrations and impacts, especially in high-speed and heavy load conditions, which may cause bearing damage or loosening of bearing seats. Take corresponding protective measures, such as installing shock absorbers and improving the rigidity of equipment structures.
6. Regular inspection: Regularly inspect the working status of linear rolling bearings, including their operation, temperature changes, noise, etc., and promptly identify and handle problems. According to the usage of bearings and the manufacturer's recommendations, replace bearings or lubricants regularly to extend the service life of bearings.
In summary, proper installation, proper lubrication, avoidance of overload, prevention of pollution, avoidance of vibration and impact, and regular inspection are important considerations when using linear rolling bearings. They can effectively protect the bearings, extend their service life, and ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
