In heavy-duty cam-driven machines, two common causes contribute to bearing downtime: misalignment and inadequate lubrication. Improper mounting often causes misalignment that produces thrust forces and metal contact between the bearing’s outer ring and side plate. Inadequate lubrication or failing to relubricate a cam follower that is in a hard-to-reach place can create unnecessary risk of failure.
The CR-VBS and CR-BSE IKO cam followers combat these issues. They feature a proprietary sealing technology called ThrustDisk, along with a radial gap to alleviate impact loading. The cam followers’ ability to handle thrust loads allows them to handle higher loads, while their sealing technology ensures high performance. CR-BSE bearings also come with C-Lube technology and are lubricated with a thermosetting solid-type lubricant that fills the inner space of the bearing. This lubricant helps provide long-term, maintenance-free operation.
Both the CR-VBS and CR-BSE have ThrustDisk seals made from a synthetic resin with a low wear rate. Other features include a low coefficient of friction, good rotational performance, and a hex head stud for easy mounting. Booth 556
