Quick development of the industry and search for new resources has put the mining among the unfading business fields. We develop bearings to save non-renewable resources and enable optimum use of power in the mining where metals are extracted from the ground under very hard conditions. We are very proud of contributing to the mining sector which is in pursuit for new mineral deposits.
Use of Bearing in the Mining Sector
Mining is a challenging business and use of machines is made hard due to the working environment full of natural dust, metal dust and dirty atmosphere. Durable bearings make some machines and equipment to move faster when extracting mineral from the deposits.
Advantages;
-
Motion in short time
-
Higher power
-
Less friction
-
Resistance to pressure
-
Resistance to impacts and hard ground
-
Resistance to high temperature
Having cylindrical structure, our bearings vary according to the field of use. Mining machines moving circularly to climb require higher rear-pushing power. Durability to highest weight, nature of the mine subject to impacts and necessity to protect it against pressure all of them require quality bearings just as we manufacture.
What Type of Bearing is Used in the Mining?
The most appropriate types of bearings are used in the mining with our engineering support. We perform bearing run tests in order that operations should continue uninterruptedly and no material damage and failure occur. In addition to the bearings, many products we produce such as bearing shells and motors are also used in the mining sector.
Our Bearing Solutions for the Mining Sector
With the bearing solutions we offer you in the mining sector, you have functionally reliable structure with respect to the machinery and process. We increase efficiency with high performance. Our bearing products have characteristics such as easy installation and removal, service at lower prices and resistance to vibration at high level. We guarantee problem-free work at high level operational safety. What is important for us is to determine which bearing is appropriate on which machine. We provide problem-free use with correct application.
Which Bearing is Used Where in the Mining?
For various clamshell excavators used in the mining sector, the most accurate bearing is partial cylindrical roller bearings. The reason is that the wheeled bucket transmission on the bucket excavators is formed by bearings at the shaft part.
Because of the welded flanges, only partial cylindrical roller bearing can be used. For the tunnel boring machines, axial radial cylindrical roller bearing or tapered roller bearing are used to further support the head which is the rotary cutter in the main bearing house and to absorbe excessive power. In case of well boring, self-aligning ball bearing resistant to pressure acts as main bearing in the boring process.
For dumper trucks, full bearing is used for the motor we specially developed for the rear wheels and for planet gear. As to the conveying systems, our partial self-aligning or special cylindrical roller bearing products are used. For breakers, self-aligning bearings should be preferred.
We make our best endeavours to produce the most appropriate bearings for you, using correct bearing on the correct machine for superior performance. Manny failures are caused by wrong type of bearing. We share our experience in order that you do not encounter such failure.
