Tapered rollerbearings

On three days in May, Alpine Bearing and hundreds of manufacturing, distribution, and technology firms descended on the Big E (Eastern States Exposition) in West Springfield, Massachusetts for EASTEC, the premier manufacturing event in New England. Hosted by the SME (Society of Manufacturing Engineers) and the AMT (Association for Manufacturing Technology), EASTEC hosted over twelve…

It takes great precision to make thin section bearings, so they often cost more than standard bearings – but the flexibility their thinness brings is worth the expense. Plus, they’re more resistant to moment load than similarly sized standard bearings.

While that’s true, sometimes, even in companies with the best maintenance programs, a piece of equipment breaks. When that happens, and your line stops, you need a new part ASAP. For some…

Engineers often choose thin section bearings for aerospace, robotics, and medical systems. Their light weight and small footprint at all diameters make them ideal for jobs with space and weight limits. Thin section bearings also keep parts turning smoothly for food processing, machining, textile manufacturing, and more.

This bearing’s defining quality is its fixed cross-section. Thin section bearings in the same line all have the same thickness, regardless of bore diameter. At large diameters, these bearings are proportionally thin, hence their name.

Martin Molin is a musician as well as an imaginative inventor, deft fabricator and an ingenious mathematician. Over the past couple of years he has been documenting his build of a unique machine which enables him to play the equivalent of 3 (or more) instruments at once. The machine is built from birch ply-wood and can play a full drum-set, a bass guitar and vibraphone at once.  Notes are struck using falling marbles and modulated my Martin’s hand. Its like 22 Rube Goldburg machines working as one system!

A sign of worn-out wheel bearing is abnormal tire wear, and it will usually be uneven, indicating an issue.

In addition to the machines amazing musical timing, each component of the machine has been fine tuned to create the perfect sound. See how he creates the snare drum sound with a percussive microphone and a small box of rice!

Jun 17, 2024 — Just lift up one side at a time, grab the top of the tire and bottom of the tire and wiggle it if the bearings are bad you will feel it.

The real magic is all the math and engineering which went into the design. The machine is gear-driven, and the marble action is sort-of like a music box, teeth on a belt engage arms which release the balls. Each ball drops in a specific spot to actuate a vibraphone note, drum sound or a bass string. Martin has perfectly (and amazingly) calibrated the distance of the falling marble and the multiple gear ratios into the song’s timing.
