Correct alignment of shaft drive systems is increasingly important in an environment where machine performance and maintenance costs are key considerations. Misalignment can result in unnecessary forces being applied to the machinery leading to increased wear and vibration causing premature bearing failure and thereby costly machine downtime.

High loads are necessary to achieve a recommended fit between bearing and mounting surface, and NSK’s range of hydraulic pushers, pullers and press plates is ideal for the job.

Scraping noise when braking at low speed

Bearings are a key component in any moving machinery and require careful application to ensure they perform to their full potential. They have to be correctly fitted both onto a shaft and into a housing. Fitting a bearing requires special tooling in order to apply the necessary force in the correct place or by heating components to achieve assembly. These considerations are not always applied leading to the bearing being damaged during the assembly or the removal process. This damage can range from indentations in the bearing raceways to seal deformation or even bearing ring cracking. Similarly with removal, damage to the bearing and its surrounding components can be costly and cause problems with future assembly. No matter what type of damage it can be assured that the bearing will not perform to its designed life causing premature machine failure and high maintenance costs.

The danger of damaging raceways can be minimized by the use of the specifically designed NSK fitting tools. Raceway damages can be prevented with the correct tools.

For most bearings, either the inner or the outer ring (in certain cases even both) are mounted onto the shaft or into the housing with an interference fit.

During cold mounting of a roller bearing, it must be made sure that the mounting forces are always applied to the ring with the interference fit. Mounting forces should never go through the rolling elements. The raceway can be damaged by application of force on the wrong bearing ring.

To overcome these problems, NSK offers a complete range of specialist tools that ensure the bearing is fitted and removed without damage. This is complemented by NSK training courses which teach best practice in using these tools and helps engineers to develop safe and efficient assembly procedures.

Correct alignment of belt drives is increasingly important in an environment where machine performance and maintenance costs are key considerations. Pulley misalignment can result in unnecessary forces being applied to the machinery leading to increased wear and vibration causing premature bearing failure and thereby costly machine downtime.

NSK's range of hydraulic pumps can be used in conjunction with hydraulic nuts or for oil galleries created for removal of bearings from tapered shafts.

The process is simplified further by the use of wireless technology pairing the sensor units to the display. Wireless connectivity also serves to improve access and make for easy location of the display unit.

Small and medium bearings are generally cold-mounted. NSK’s fitting tool kit ensures that this is carried out efficiently without damage.

With the LAB-Set, you are never in doubt of whether your belt transmissions are aligned or not. By using the V-grooves as reference, you will achieve precise alignment which reduces belt wear, bearing failures and vibration. NSK’s laser alignment solution LAB-Set contains two line laser transmitters, making alignment far more accurate than single laser head types. Each set is equipped with a range of magnetic spring loaded guides which snap into the pulley grooves. This makes it very easy to mount the laser units on the pulley. The alignment process is as easy as the mounting. Just turn on the lasers and look at the opposite mounted unit. The laser shows as a line on the target label as in the illustration to the right. If necessary, adjust your machine position until the laser lines are aligned with the centre mark. This is done for both units which ensures accurate alignment at a distance up to 6m.

The LAS-Set uses dual line lasers for easy set-up, even at larger distances, and digital sensors with high resolution for precise results. Additionally, a display unit that provides an icon-based, intuitive, step-by-step guide, makes the entire alignment process both straightforward and quick.
