Measures to prevent fatigue on the surface of ball bearings:
1. Ensure the use of appropriate bearing models and bearing accuracy requirements for actual application conditions and their variations (load, temperature, speed, alignment error, installation, etc.).
2. Ensure adequate lubrication: Use the appropriate amount of lubricant at the appropriate time.
3. Improve the surface separation ability of lubricants (lubricant viscosity, additives, grease formula)
4. Regularly check the quality of lubricants.
5. Reduce pollution (improve sealing and oil filtration).
The following legend shows bearing failure cases caused by surface fatigue of various types of bearings.
Poor lubrication of the inner ring of spherical ball bearings and early detachment caused by surface fatigue.
Insufficient lubrication film on the inner ring of spherical ball bearings, initially caused by pollution leading to wear, later developed into surface fatigue detachment.
Insufficient lubrication film on customized deep groove ball bearings leads to extensive surface fatigue.
The customized double row ball bearing has a large centering error, resulting in excessive load and a 180 degree separation between the two load zones.
The impact during installation caused peeling at the ball bearing pitch circle.
