Potential for more energy efficiency

Abstract

Bearings provide mechanical movement in countless applications and are an important factor when it comes to energy efficiency. Used materials, lubricants, seals - the factors which Tribology and thus influence energy consumption, depending on the application are quite different to assess. Users will benefit from this background of suppliers such as bearings, in addition to product diversity and the corresponding consulting expertise in terms of energy saving opportunities. Energy savings are being optimized by a bearing design to achieve. Potentials for the improvement of components, for example in material and surface condition of rolling elements and rings, career profile and geometry, the ball or roller set, and its interaction with special cage designs. A lighter course by reduced friction and a lower inertia weight reduced by design - the energy consumption can be reduced in different ways without having to sacrifice in terms of performance and service life must be made. By using the right machine elements can be for example energy-efficient propulsion realize, in addition to cost saving in consumption due to lower demand also reduces CO2 emissions. But what options users have this in detail, they often do not know. Seals and lubricants are other design elements that affect energy efficiency of bearings. They are also in a variety of models available. For example, results from the labyrinth seals a lower power dissipation, they are usually particularly good sealing effect of energy saving. Deep groove ball bearings with low friction seals are not abrasive to the operation of a plant consumption significantly reduced. Compared with a premium solution with grinding of mass of product provides a solution with bearings non abrasive seals not only an efficient operation of the system, but is also a cheaper solution, a further argument for applying the method ABEG in the search for savings potential. The same is true for the lubricants used, which in terms of performance, functionality and durability of the camp plays a key role in the mechanical propulsion role. ABEG Holding Germany advises a holistic and competent around bearings, lubricants and seals. To get users simultaneously powerful and energy efficient storage solutions for the specific purpose
