Hard-Turning Technology
AXPB RBtech introduces the most advanced process using hard-turning technology, instead of the traditional grinding. This new process gives AXPB RBtech’s bearings a significantly longer life under loads and also have reduced noise and friction thanks to the improved contact between the roller and the ribs. This is certainly and interesting combination when considering downsizing and increasing energy efficiency.
Hard Turning
- High axial load carrying capacity due to optimized rib contact
- A higher level of energy efficiency due to reduced frictional torque
- Lower maintenance costs
- Lower operating costs due to reduced energy consumption
- Increased performance
- Suitable for extremely high radial loads
- Suitable for very high speeds
Control
- Modern metrology and a climate controlled manufacturing environment
consistently provides precise measurements - Reduced tolerances levels of ABEC 5 and above
- Control over material and process for demanding applications
Material, Forging and Heat Treatment
- Ultraclean, extremely wear resistant, low oxygen level bearing steel
- Forging and ring rolling in state-of-the-art facilities
- Salt bath hardening, along with sub zero treatment to assure
residual austenite levels lower than 2%
