How to extend the life of your motor bearings
Electric motors play a vital role in our everyday lives – where we live, work and play. Simply put, they make almost everything that moves, move. Nearly 70 percent of electricity consumed by industry is used by electric motor systems.1 Roughly 75 percent of the industrial motors in operation are...Read more -
Five steps to avoid common causes of bearing failure
1. Steer clear of improper handling, mounting and storage Bearings should be stored horizontally in their original packaging in a clean, dry and room temperature environment. When bearings are unnecessarily handled, for example, if their wrappings are prematurely removed, this can expose them to...Read more -

What led to this condition? – Case Study
Everything is fine? That shouldn’t make us invisible 18 pumps under the responsibility of a Condition Monitoring team, demonstrating an almost identical behavior, with identical symptoms… and surely calling for full attention. A user (meaning a friend, a member of the SDT family) asked me to assi...Read more -
Why is my bearing suddenly making excessive noise?
Bearings are critical components in any piece of rotating machinery. Their primary function is to support the rotating shaft whilst reducing friction to facilitate smooth motion. Due to the vital role that bearings play within machinery, it’s important to regularly inspect your bearings for any ...Read more -
Rotating assets with fewer spare parts – it is possible!
During my 16-year career with the Royal Netherlands Air Force, I learned and experienced that having the right spare parts available or not affects the availability of technical systems. Aircraft stood still at Volkel Air Base due to a shortage of spare parts, while those in Kleine-Brogel in Belg...Read more -
Typical RB Running Traces
Typical Running Traces of Roller Bearings (I) shows the outer ring running trace when a radial load is properly applied to a cylindrical roller bearing which has a load on a rotating inner ring. (J) shows the running trace in the case of shaft bending or relative inclination between the inner a...Read more -
The four stages of bearing cage damage
When bearings are working, more or less they will cause a certain degree of damage and wear because of friction, especially when operating at high temperature, and even the bearing cage will be damaged.According to the degree of damage, it is generally divided into different stages, so the bearin...Read more -
