What bearings are generally used in the spindle of a machine tool?
The following types of bearings are generally used in the spindle of a machine tool. The selection of these bearings depends on the specific purpose, speed requirements and precision requirements of the spindle:
1. Angular contact ball bearings:
Application: This is the most commonly used spindle bearing, especially suitable for high-speed, high-precision machining. They can bear radial and unidirectional axial loads at the same time, usually installed in pairs or groups.
Advantages: It has high rotational accuracy and rigidity, is suitable for high-speed applications, and can provide stable axial support.
Typical applications: used for high-speed precision machining, grinding machine tool spindles, etc.
2. Cylindrical roller bearings:
Application: Suitable for bearing high radial loads, usually used in spindle systems that require high rigidity.
Advantages: High rigidity, capable of supporting large radial loads, but limited axial load capacity (some special designs can carry a certain axial force).
Typical applications: Mostly used in spindles of milling machines, lathes, etc. that require medium speed and high rigidity support.
3. Tapered roller bearings:
Application: Suitable for spindle applications that need to bear radial and axial loads, usually used in heavy loads or places with large axial forces.
Advantages: Provides good axial positioning, high rigidity, suitable for medium to low speed applications.
Typical applications: Commonly used in spindles of heavy machine tools and large machining centers.
4. Double-row cylindrical roller bearings:
Application: For machine tool spindles that require higher rigidity.
Advantages: Higher load capacity and rigidity than single-row cylindrical roller bearings, suitable for high-precision machining.
Typical applications: Spindle for high-precision turning and milling machine tools.
5. Precision ball bearings or ceramic ball bearings:
Application: Used in spindles that require extremely high speed and high precision, such as ultra-high-speed cutting.
Advantages: Low friction, low heat, can maintain stable performance at extremely high speeds, especially suitable for high-speed electric spindles.
Typical applications: Used in high-speed, high-precision processing occasions, such as precision grinders, drilling and milling spindles.
6. Hydrostatic or Gas Hydrostatic Bearings:
Application: Used in situations where ultra-high precision or extremely low friction is required, such as the spindles of some high-end grinders or ultra-precision machining equipment.
Advantages: Almost no friction and vibration, with extremely high rotation accuracy and surface smoothness.
Typical applications: High-precision grinders or machine tool spindles that require extremely high precision.
In summary, angular contact ball bearings and cylindrical roller bearings are the most common choices, but the choice of specific bearing type depends on the specific needs and design requirements of the spindle, including speed, load and machining accuracy.
