RKB ROVSX spherical roller bearings: applications In many mechanical applications (e.g. vibrating screens, vibrating hammers etc.) the bearing is subjected to high speeds, high vibrations and heavy loads. Due to the high rotational accelerations, the centrifugal force represents the main load. When all these factors act together, the lubrication of the bearing is very difficult. In these severe conditions, RKB recommends using its spherical roller bearings ROVSX design. Heavy loads High speeds High vibrations RKB ROVSX design

RKB ROVSX spherical roller bearings: applications The RKB ROVSX spherical roller bearings are frequently used in the vibrating screens. The vibrations are produced by the shaft due to the eccentricity between the axis of revolution and the center of mass. The vibrations are transmitted from the shaft to the machine through the bearings (a system of springs separates the machine from the ground). The RKB ROVSX spherical roller bearings perfectly fit also vibrating hammer applications. The power is generated by two different sources and transmitted to all the shafts by couples of gears. The...

RKB ROVSX design main features: improved cage design The cage is separated into two different pieces to allow possible sliding movements (due to revolving shaft deflections). The machined brass cage, guided on outer ring, is thicker than the standard design to increase stiffness and resistance. RKB ROVSX cage design The cage is designed open-end to improve the lubrication of the rolling elements. Furthermore the brass enhances the damping of the vibrations.

RKB ROVSX design main features: higher precision than standard class The RKB ROVSX spherical roller bearings are designed with tighter dimensional tolerances than standard class. These tolerances are used for some of the dimensions that directly influence the radial internal clearance of the bearing: • d, bore diameter • D, outer diameter • B, bearing width The reduction of the tolerances leads to a better control of the radial internal clearance of the bearing. In addition this type of bearing is produced with a special radial internal clearance, with a restricted range, generally C4R...

RKB ROVSX design main features: bainite treatment Aichelin furnaces for bainite treatment in RKB T3 Plant • higher impact resistance • higher wear resistance • higher fatigue resistance For further information refer to the related educational video “RKB special heat treatments for heavy duty applications” In order to improve bearing life in harsh working conditions, RKB typically applies the bainite treatment to its ROVSX spherical roller bearings. This ensures better impact, wear and fatigue resistance.
