What is a ZKLDF Bearing?

A ZKLDF bearing is a specialized, high-performance turntable bearing designed for various precision applications. It features double rows of rollers arranged orthogonally at 90°, forming an "X"-shaped contact line, which enables even distribution of composite loads. The integrated track design of the inner and outer rings reduces assembly errors and enhances system rigidity. This bearing can efficiently bear radial force (≤50 kN), axial force (≤30 kN) and moment (≤3000 N·m) simultaneously, while maintaining low friction (friction coefficient ≤ 0.0015) and stable operation in different environments. It is a core component in many precision systems, directly affecting the performance and service life of the equipment. As a professional bearing manufacturer, NEWBEE Transmission's ZKLDF bearings, relying on advanced material selection and precision machining processes, have excellent performance, fully meeting the requirements of various precision applications.

Features of ZKLDF Bearings

Composite Load Capacity: A single bearing can simultaneously bear radial force, axial force and moment, making it highly adaptable to complex load conditions in various applications.

Ultra-high Precision: With P4-level precision, the radial runout is ≤0.002 mm, ensuring precise operation of the equipment it is installed in.

Modular Design: Pre-installed alignment washers simplify the installation process, reducing installation time and errors.

Environmental Adaptability: The option of stainless steel material plus a fully sealed design makes it suitable for humid, corrosive or vacuum environments, expanding its application range.

Long Life: The GCr15 material undergoes a vacuum degassing treatment, increasing the fatigue life by 30%, reducing the frequency of replacement and maintenance.

Working Principle of ZKLDF Bearings

Load Distribution Mechanism:

Radial Load: Transmitted through the vertical contact of the double rows of rollers, resulting in a uniform stress distribution.

Axial Load: The end faces of the upper row of rollers bear the thrust force, and the lower row of rollers balances it in the opposite direction.

Moment Load: The rollers on the diagonal resist the overturning moment, reducing deformation.

Lubrication System:

Grease Lubrication: Krytox® high-temperature lubricating grease is applicable in the temperature range from -30°C to 120°C, suitable for medium and low speeds (≤300 rpm).

Oil Lubrication: The built-in oil circuit supports circulating oil cooling and is suitable for high-speed scenarios (≤500 rpm).

Applications of ZKLDF Bearings

With its excellent composite load capacity, ultra-high precision and environmental adaptability, ZKLDF bearings are widely used in various precision equipment and systems:

CNC Rotary Tables: Rotary worktables of five-axis machining centers and vertical lathes, where their high precision and load-bearing capacity ensure accurate rotation and processing.

Industrial Robots: Slewing supports of heavy-duty robotic arms, providing stable support and precise movement for the robot's operation.
