Where can ball bearing be applied?

With the development of society, more and more companies are focusing on various technologies. Given that it could stimulate their economic development. Ball bearing is a kind of technological materials, which plays a considerable role in different fields. The development of bearings has been underway for more than 200 years, ball bearing is also one of the most important bearings in the world.

In this report, we will conclude the situation where ball bearing can be applied, and indicate the function of ball bearings for you.

Which field can ball bearing be applied?

Clearly, ball bearings can be seen in every field, such as aerospace, nuclear and industrial, electronic computer, optical electromagnetic instruments, precision machinery, etc. In modern light industrial machinery, ball bearings are arguably the most common component.

If these areas are too far away for us, we can take toys as an example. We can see ball bearings in children's toys. For example, the wheels that are used to make skates or skateboards. If one takes a close look at the wheels of a skate or skateboard, one will find tiny metal balls inside the plastic tires, which are ball bearings, a key component in improving efficiency through friction.

Therefore, it’s a multiple-functional material that influences people’s lives. 

What function does ball bearing have?

The principle of ball bearing operation is straightforward. It is the rolling process that reduces friction between components and thus increases working efficiency. The most significant function is to improve the working efficiency of a machine.

Besides. there is no doubt that ball bearings have a wide range of advantages. Firstly, The material is suitable for high-volume production and is of consistent, high quality and high productivity makes it become the first choice for many enterprises. What’ more, It offers high precision, high speed, low wear, and a long service life, which in other words. It does not require regular replacement.

Obviously, ball bearings are generally applied in the equipment of low load mechanical transmission. Due to the small load carrying area of ball bearings, it’s highly susceptible to serious mechanical damage in high-speed operation. Consequently, in order to increase the load-carrying surface and reduce mechanical damage. A ball bearing could play an essential role in heavy load mechanical drives.

A rational analysis of ball bearings

However, some potential issues need to be noticed. The most important one is These bearings are not shock resistant and are not adapted to withstand heavy loads. Therefore, ball bearings are not recommended for connecting heavy machinery.

Moreover, ball bearings are more costly and time-consuming to produce because of the complex manufacturing process. Therefore, it can be a little more expensive than a normal bearing in terms of price. But as far as practicality is concerned, ball bearings are undoubtedly one of the best bearings available.
