OILES Bearings Offer Tremendous Advantages
Elimination Of Oiling Devices, Machining Of Oil Holes & Oil Grooves
Cost required for oiling devices, including installation and labor costs for machining oil holes and oil grooves or for associated piping installation, can be eliminated, enabling considerable cost reductions.
Reduction In Running Costs
A tremendous amount of lubricant oil is usually consumed in a machine shop. Thus, a great cost saving will be achieved by switching into an oilless mode. For example, an 80,000 KW water turbine which consumed an annual 100 of grease was altered in an oilless operation by employing OILES bearings. Using OILES bearings lowers running costs through the elimination of both lubricant oil and attendant maintenance operations.
Reduction In Maintenance Costs
At a textile fabrics shop, oiling controls are conducted in accordance with an established checklist requiring standard oiling and maintenance for every day, every week, every month and after each specific operation. The maintenance-free mode attained by employing OILES bearings will not only solve the problems of oiling operations and oiling devices, but it also extends the service lives of the bearings.
Cost Savings From Lubricant Oil Recovery & Improved Environment
Spilled oil causes contamination in working areas when released as sewage, it further contaminates the water in rivers and lakes. The costs for used oil recovery and attendant labor are far from negligible. OILES bearings will bring our remarkable cost savings in addition to improved environmental conditions.
Cost Savings In Design
If oiling systems are not required (oil holes, lube lines and installation fixtures), design will be simplified. Adoption of standard OILES bearings will facilitate further reduction in design costs and time.
More Compact Design & Longer Life
OILES bearings conserve space because the oiling system in unnecessary and the overall size of the bearing itself is smaller, further enabling a smaller housing and shaft. The compact size will require less material cost as a whole. As being conveniently small in size, OILES bearing also has a high load carrying capacity, an excellent wear resistance and can maintain mechanical accuracy much longer. The easy and quick installation feature is also appreciated.
