Slewing bearing, as the specific segment in bearing product line, is usually the critical connection component between an upper and down part of a large machine or equipment. But how to choose a proper slewing bearing, please follow LBY, we will make an introduction to you step by step. 

Slewing bearing is a customized product based on several factors.

Each slewing bearing type has different characteristics based on its design, which finally become appropriate for a given application, for example, a single row four-point contact slewing bearings have a simple and sturdy design and also cost-effective, while crossed cylindrical roller slewing bearings are used when accuracy and rigidity are key operational parameters.

Here are the most important factors to be considered when selecting:

• accuracy

• magnitude and direction of loads 

• permissible operating temperature 

• vibration

• operating speed 

• sealing

Selecting the appropriate slewing bearing can be a challenge, particularly if there are strict technical, reliability requirement. LBY application engineering team would suggest you to involve us at the initial phase of the design so that we do more than help select a bearing but also provide you expertised advice in:

• optimization of the design

• lubrication systems 

• sealing arrangements 

We safeguard the safety of your equipment. Welcome to inquire sales@leonessa-yancheng.com.
