Specifications for internal radial clearance are provided for different bearing types, outlining minimum and maximum clearance values for various inner diameter dimensions.
Selection and Design Considerations
Criteria for selecting precision crossed roller bearings include operation mode, dimensions, accuracy, and lubrication, with a recommendation to consult THB for higher accuracy needs.
Load and Life Calculations
Guidance on calculating rated life and equivalent radial dynamic load is provided, emphasizing static safety factors and permissible moment and axial load.
Design Recommendations
Recommendations for designing parts mating with bearings stress ensuring sufficient rigidity and provide formulas for calculating housing and flange thickness.
Fit Tolerance and Mounting
Fit tolerance specifications for mounting bearings are provided, including shaft and housing hole tolerances, with recommendations for bolt quantity and dimensions.
Specifications and Torque Recommendations
Torque specifications for tightening bolts on bearing housings are detailed, with recommended preload values for different bolt diameters.
Mounting Procedure for Crossed Roller Bearings
The mounting process includes inspecting and cleaning parts, properly mounting the bearing, and tightening bolts in a diagonal order over several stages.
Lubrication Guidelines
Bearings are pre-filled with grease but require periodic lubrication, with intervals typically between 6 to 12 months, adjusted for high-frequency applications.
Precautions in Use
Bearings should not be disassembled arbitrarily, and misalignment should be corrected before insertion. External force should not be applied to fixing rivets or bolts during mounting or removal.
Parameter Tables
Detailed parameter tables for various bearing types provide specifications such as dimensions, rated load, and weight, aiding in selecting the appropriate model.

Crossed roller bearing-7

The crossed roller bearing is formed by arranging the appropriate rollers between the inner ring and the outer ring at 1:1. Its structure is compact and its rolling surfaces contact the rings at lines, so its rings and the rolling elements are less deformed when it is under pressure. It can bear the combined loads of the radial load, the axial load, the moment load, etc. at the same time. Such bearings are widely used in situations where high rigidity and high rotation accuracy are required and bearing size is small, such as the rotation positions of the industrial robots, the machine tools and...

Major Features of Precision Crossed Roller Bearings of THB High Rigidity, High Positioning Accuracy and Smooth Rotation The rolling elements of the cylindrical rollers are arranged perpendicular (at 90°) to each other inside the crossed roller bearing. The roller elements contact the raceway at lines, and the rings and the rolling elements are less deformed when the bearing is under pressure, so the operation rigidity of the bearing is high when it is working. The cage or spacers can be placed between the rollers to prevent the rollers from slanting or rubbing with each other to increase the...

Classification of Precision Crossed Roller Bearings of THB RB Type (Separable outer ring type for inner ring rotation) The RB series are the basic type of the crossed cylindrical roller bearings. The dimensions of their inner and outer rings are minimized. Their outer ring is two half rings fixed with bolts or special rivets, and their inner ring is a one-piece design. They are suitable for parts which require high rotation accuracy of the inner ring, such as the rotating parts of the indexing table of machine tools. SX Type (Separable outer ring type for inner ring rotation) The dimensions of...

Crossed roller bearing-10

CRBS Type (Ultra-thin wall type, both inner ring and outer ring are integrated) The inner and outer rings of the CRBS series are both a one-piece design with a one-piece ring raceway. There is a filling hole in their outer ring. The thickness of their rings are as thin as close to the limit, so the weight of the mechanism is effectively reduced. As it is easy to mount them and as they are extremely thin, they are most suitable for the applications which require a high rigidity and high accuracy of the inner and outer rings. RA Type (Ultra-thin wall type, separable outer ring, integrated inner...
