and Software |
| Bearing
Expert -
This software is an essential tool if you're involved in vibration
analysis. The database includes base bearing frequencies for over
200,000 bearings, as well as
cross reference data for over 1 million
bearings in all, making it quick and
easy to find a suitable bearing replacement. |
| Bearings
- Reducing Failure Rate: Failure Analysis - This CD-ROM
explains the purpose of bearings and demonstrates how bearings reduce
friction and maintain the alignment
of operating equipment. The basic
operation of anti-friction bearings
and plain journal bearings is demonstrated, as well as the importance
of full fluid film lubrication and proper lubrication clearance. Additionally, indications of various premature
bearing failures are discussed. |
| Bearings
- Reducing Bearing Failure Rate: Maintaining Bearings - This
lesson explains and demonstrates how to clean and disassemble bearing
housings and how to dismount,
inspect, and mount common types of
bearings. The importance of cleanliness and
following manufacturers' instructions are stressed throughout each
demonstrated procedure. |
| Rolling
Bearings
Troubleshooter's Guide on CD-ROM -
If premature bearing failures
are a problem, then this CD-ROM might be just what
you're looking for. Over 80
different bearing failures are pictured,
with accompanying causes and solutions
to prevent the same failure from occurring
again. Also included is an extensive
Bearings Reference Guide on the same
CD-ROM. |
| Rotating
Equipment: Techniques for Extending Bearing Life - This comprehensive
Activ® interactive multimedia training program consists of seven
lessons that train participants to use predictive maintenance as a tool
for prolonging equipment life and
preventing major problems. This
lesson presents guidelines for maximizing
the operational life of bearings for
rotating equipment. The lesson emphasizes
the proper handling, storage, installation, and maintenance of bearings. |
| International
Bearings Interchange - When was the last time you could find
the part you needed in just a few seconds? If finding alternative
parts is something you find yourself doing regularly then this CD-ROM
is a tool your maintenance storeroom
should have. It lets you quickly
locate a suitable replacement from
other manufacturers that can help
you get your equipment back up and
running more quickly. Interchanges are also available on seals,
mounted units, filters, and drive belts. |
| Prefix/Suffix
Interchange Guides - This CD-ROM helps you figure out those
tricky bearing part number prefixes and suffixes. |
