Machine tool spindle bearings are crucial for the accuracy and efficiency of machining operations. They come in various configurations, each designed to support specific load capacities, speeds, and precision requirements.
Single-Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings: These bearings can support both radial and axial loads, and are often used in pairs or sets to handle loads in both directions. They are suitable for high-speed applications and provide good rigidity.
Double-Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings: Similar to two single-row bearings back-to-back, these provide greater axial load capacity and rigidity but are typically used for moderate speeds.
Tapered roller bearings can handle both radial and axial loads, with the ability to accommodate higher axial loads compared to angular contact ball bearings. They are used in applications where heavy loads and high stiffness are required.
These bearings are designed to carry heavy radial loads and are available in various configurations (e.g., single row, double row). They offer high stiffness and are often used in high-speed spindles.
