Description

Design Principles: The 90° orthogonal crossed arrangement of rollers forms a symmetrical contact line, evenly distributing radial, axial, and moment loads, avoiding local stress concentration, and improving stability at high speeds. The split inner ring design facilitates precise preload adjustment, while the integral outer ring + integrated flange structure reduces assembly steps, lowers cumulative errors, and enhances system rigidity and rotational accuracy. Performance Features: Flange Integration: Equipped with standard mounting holes, eliminating the need for additional supports, significantly simplifying the installation process and saving assembly space. High-Speed Adaptability: Optimized roller and cage design, with a maximum speed of 2800 rpm under grease lubrication and 3500 rpm under oil lubrication. High Rigidity and Precision: P2-class precision meets micron-level positioning requirements, and the crossed roller layout enhances deformation resistance by more than 3 times. Long Service Life and Stability: Surface hardening treatment of GCr15 material, precision polishing of roller end faces (Ra≤0.1μm), and fatigue life increased by 30%. Customization Options: Supports non-standard size customization, flange specification customization, hybrid design with ceramic rollers, corrosion-resistant material (SUS440C), and special lubrication solutions for high-temperature/vacuum environments.

Working Principle

CRBF crossed roller bearings
Roller Arrangement and Load Distribution: The rollers are arranged in a 90° orthogonal crossed pattern, forming "X"-shaped contact lines that evenly distribute radial, axial, and moment loads to each roller, avoiding local stress overload. Under high-speed operating conditions, the symmetrical distribution of contact lines effectively balances centrifugal forces, ensuring operational stability. Moment loads are transmitted through diagonal rollers, further improving load-bearing efficiency. Lubrication and Sealing: Sealing Protection: Double contact seals (UU/U) effectively block dust and liquid intrusion, adapting to complex industrial environments; the open-type design reduces resistance during high-speed operation, meeting the requirements of clean and high-speed scenarios. Thermal Management: Precision polishing of roller end faces and low-friction cage design effectively control operating temperature rise (typical temperature rise ≤13°C). Combined with the thermal conductivity of high-quality steel, it ensures the thermal stability of precision equipment under high-speed operation. Installation Compatibility: The integrated flange structure is compatible with standard mounting holes and can be directly fixed with bolts, simplifying the installation process. The split inner ring design allows precise control of preload by adding or removing adjustment shims. It is compatible with standard interference fits (shaft h6/housing bore H7) and meets the assembly tolerance requirements of most industrial equipment.

FAQ

The CRBF type features an integral outer ring, split inner ring, and integrated flange design, which is easy to install without additional supports and suitable for high speeds; the CRBH type adopts an integral inner and outer ring ultra-thin design, focusing on compact space adaptation. The selection depends on the installation method, speed requirements and space conditions.
It is suitable for scenarios that require both high speed and high precision, such as high-speed CNC rotary tables, high-speed wafer transfer robots, and high-speed grinding machine spindles. The maximum speed can reach 2800 rpm with grease lubrication and 3500 rpm with oil lubrication.
Usually 6-10 weeks. Specifically, it needs to be determined according to the design complexity, material supply and production schedule. Urgent production services are supported to meet the needs of emergency projects.
For high-temperature environments, high-temperature special grease and GCr15 material should be selected; for corrosive environments, SUS440C stainless steel material, corrosion-resistant grease and UU/U sealing type should be selected to ensure the service life and stability of the bearing.
