    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preload_(engineering)

    Preload is an engineering term with several meanings. In the general sense, it refers to the internal application of stress to certain mechanical systems. In the general sense, it refers to the internal application of stress to certain mechanical systems.

  3. Timken OK Load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timken_OK_Load

    The contact area is flooded with the lubricant or grease being tested. The Timken OK Load is the highest standard load at which the spinning bearing race produces no scouring mark on the test block, but only a uniform wear scar. [1] Timken OK Loads are listed on grease and oil property charts and are part of many specifications.

  4. Timken Company - Wikipedia

The Timken Company brands include: Timken bearings; GGB bearings; American Roller Bearing and Engineered Solutions Group (iMECH); Lagersmit sealing solutions; Rollon, Nadella and Rosa Sistemi linear motion products; Philadelph

  5. Rockwell hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockwell_hardness_test

    A Rockwell hardness tester. The Rockwell hardness test is a hardness test based on indentation hardness of a material. The Rockwell test measures the depth of penetration of an indenter under a large load (major load) compared to the penetration made by a preload (minor load). [1]

  6. Tapered roller bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapered_roller_bearing

    In 1898, Henry Timken was awarded a patent [2] for the tapered roller bearing which used conical rollers. At the time, Timken was a carriage-maker in St. Louis and held three patents for carriage springs. However, it was his patent for tapered roller bearings that allowed his company to become successful.

  7. Air bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_bearing

    The air bearing with vacuum preload and a constant bearing gap height floats contact-less on top of the rotary table. Adjustment slider for optics production The linear slider, which is air-guided and statically determined, guarantees a high-precision positioning of the optical component before grinding.

  8. DN factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DN_Factor

    Once the DN factor of a bearing has been obtained, it can be used to consult grease selection charts in order to determine the correct lubricant. Viscosity must be matched to the needs of the bearing in order to obtain maximum efficiency, and to avoid lubricant runout due to overheating, which is a consequence of metal-on-metal contact, as well ...

  9. Stribeck curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stribeck_curve

    Hersey's original formula uses the rotational speed (revolutions per unit time) for N and the load per projected area (i.e. the product of a journal bearing's length and diameter) for P. Alternatively, the Hersey number is the dimensionless number obtained from the velocity (m/s) times the dynamic viscosity (Pa∙s = N∙s/m2), divided by the ...
