Maintaining the bearing is a necessary condition for the operation of the imported bearings of TIMKEN. The common maintenance is to lubricate the bearing. In reading how to select the lubrication method of the bearing, under the premise of understanding the lubrication method of the bearing, it is also very good to understand the maintenance of the bearing system. If necessary, let us look at how to carry out bearing lubrication maintenance.
1. Keep the bearing lubricated clean
Before inspecting the imported bearings of TIMKEN, the surface of the bearing should be cleaned first, and then the oil seal of the bearing and its surrounding parts should be carefully inspected. If there are any bad symptoms, be sure to replace them. The bad oil seal will cause damage and make the bearing cloud. The equipment is not properly stopped and the equipment is shut down.
2. Pay attention to cover exposed bearings
Do not expose the bearings to contaminants or moisture when inspecting TIMKEN bearings. If the work is interrupted, the machine should be covered with a piece of oil-paper plastic or similar material. If the unshielded bearing is cleaned without performing disassembly and may be inspected, use a brush for application to clean with a petroleum solvent, then dry it with a lint-free cloth or blow it with compressed air (be careful not to let The bearing assembly starts to rotate). Check the track faces, retainers and beads of the bearing with a small mirror and a probe similar to that used by dentists. Do not clean the bearing with a sealing cover or dustproof; just wipe the outer surface. If the bearing is damaged, it needs to be replaced. Replacing bearings during regular downtime maintenance is far more economical than the loss of sudden downtime selected due to damage to the array.
3. Check the lubricant of the bearing
Lubricants are important not only for bearings but also for all bearings. However, please note that it is not advisable to add too much grease to TIMKEN bearings. Then it is to replace the lubricant of the bearing. Bearings lubricated with oil should be refilled with fresh oil and allowed to rotate at low speed for a few minutes if the old oil is drained. As much as possible, allow the oil to collect the contaminants from the wreckage and then vent the oil. Bearings lubricated with grease should be replaced with any contact with the cotton material when the grease is replaced. Since these residual fibers may be wedged between the rolling elements and cause damage, in particular the application of the bearing needs to pay attention to this problem.
