Production of ball bearings
The production of ball bearings is a complex process involving multiple processes and equipment. The general production process of ball bearings is as follows:
1. Material preparation: According to the requirements of the bearing, select the appropriate material, usually steel. The material is processed by cutting, forging and other processes to make bearing parts of appropriate size.
2. Spherical surface grinding: put the bearing parts into the grinding machine, and process the spherical surface of the parts accurately through the grinding process, so that it can reach the shape and size required by the design.
3. Cold work hardening: Through the cold work hardening process, the hardness and strength of bearing parts are improved to increase their service life and bearing capacity.
4. Assembly: Assemble the processed bearing parts, including installing balls, cages and other components, and conduct strict quality inspection to ensure the quality and performance of the bearings.
5. Cleaning and lubrication: Clean the assembled bearings to remove dirt and impurities on the surface, and then lubricate them to reduce friction and wear and improve the operating efficiency and life of the bearings.
6. Inspection and packaging: Carry out a comprehensive inspection of the bearings, including visual inspection, size measurement, noise testing, etc., to ensure that the quality of the bearings meets the standard requirements. Finally, the bearings are packaged and marked for easy transportation and sales.
