Bearing Solutions for the Paper Industry
The bearings that are used in the dryer rolls of papermaking machines operate in hot environments because high temperature steam is passed through the rolls. The following are examples of the kinds of bearing damage that can result in roll damage and potential catastrophic failure:
Early abrasion caused by insufficient formation of a film of lubricating oil,
creep from bearing variance caused by use at high temperatures over long period,
fracture of the inner ring in the bearing from an increase in fitting stress as a result of temperature differences between the shaft and the ring.
In particular, fracture of the inner ring can constitute a serious incident that results in production stoppages. In response, NSK has developed its TL (tough and long life) bearings. Thanks to the use of a special nitrocarburizing treatment for the materials, the fracture strength of the inner ring has been increased and dimensional stability at high temperatures is excellent.
TL bearings have the overwhelming trust of the market, and they enjoy an unquestionable position as the leading choice for dryer cylinder roll bearings.
