POWER TRANSMISSION COMPONENTS at high speeds due to vibrations in the system This not only reduces oil delivery but can also cause the oil ring to come in contact with fixed structures in the bearing and cause damage BENEFITS OF CIRCULATING OIL IN RING LUBRICATED BEARINGS There are several benefits to using an external circulating oil system on hydrodynamic bearings that can improve bearing performance and reliability These benefits include sufficient Shaft damage due to contaminants in the oil rings oil flow at all times continuous oil filtration easy monitoring of oil quality and temperature cooling and redundant lubrication Sufficient oil flow at all times Circulating oil or force fed lubrication is when an external pump directs oil directly to the shaft before during and after operation Ideally the oil flow to the bearing is sufficient for operation at all potential operating speeds including at startup and in slow speed turning gear applications By reducing the amount of time spent in boundary or mixed film lubrication adding circulating oil can significantly reduce bearing wear Continuous oil filtration Second benefits of using circulating oil lubrication is that the system is being continuously flushed and harmful contaminants are removed This is critical because contaminants can cause damage to both the shaft and bearing especially during boundary Experience Knowledge Service Rockability Weve got it Rock Solid Solutions Built on Experience Since 1977 Proud Distributor of Aggregate Material Handling Systems 323 Energy Way Bridgeport TX www crispindustries com 8003150871 22 PIT QUARRY October 2018 pitandquarry com
