Bearing : Hydrodynamic Bearings Hydrostatic Bearings Rolling Element Bearings
Types of bearings- • Radial bearing • Thrust bearing • Sliding contact bearings • Rolling contact bearings
Hydrodynamic and Hydrostatic Bearing : Hydrodynamic and Hydrostatic Bearings are those which we design and manufacture all by ourselves for the majority cases. These are more specific to the application, costlier in budget but work really effectively.
Rolling Element Bearing : Rolling Element Bearings are those which are readily available catalogued products in the market. They are surely cost effective; just select them from the catalogue based on the requirement. Very rarely are rolling element bearings designed and manufactured. Although the bearings are classified into these three types the varieties each type of bearing holds is enormous. The forthcoming articles will deal more with these details.
