Slewing bearings are called “joint of machines”  and are widely used in industry. The service life is very important.This article lists the factors which affect the life of the Slewing bearing.

1. Structure

The reasonable design of the Slewing bearing structure will make the Slewing bearing have a good life.

2. Processing procedure

The Slewing bearing is processed by forging, heat treatment, turning, grinding and assembly. The rationality and stability of each processing technology will also affect the life of the Slewing bearing.

Xuzhou Wanda’s Slewing bearing processing procedures strictly conform to European and American standards. Each bearing has undergone four rounds of 14 quality inspections to ensure high product quality and stable performance.

3. Materials

The material will also affect the Slewing bearing, but at present, the material of the Slewing bearing has been greatly improved, and the impact on the Slewing bearing has gradually decreased.

In order to ensure the high performance of the material, the raw materials of Xuzhou Wanda Slewing bearing are purchased from large factories, and all the forgings are quenched and tempered.

4. Bearing capacity

The bearing capacity of the Slewing bearing will affect its life. The Slewing bearing has different bearing capacities due to the difference in the manufacturing process and the materials used. If the operation exceeds this range, it will cause damage to the Slewing bearing, which will affect the service life of the machine.

5. Friction

Friction is a key factor in all machinery, and wear caused by friction is a major factor in reducing the service life of Slewing bearings.
