Cross Roller Bearing

04

Cross roller bearings consist of inner rings, outer rings, spacer retainers and cylindricalrollers cross arranged on the V-shaped 90° groove between the inner and outer rings. Thisstructure can withstand radial, axial and moment loads in all directions because the rollers’line contact with raceway surfaces achieve a large load-bearing area despite the minimumdimensions. Therefore these bearings are widely used on the rotating parts of industrialrobots, machine tools, precision rotary tables, measuring instruments and ICmanufacturing machines.

Basic Rated Life

Dynamic Equivalent Radial Load : P

The service life of the cross roller bearing is calculated using the following formula:

Dynamic Equivalent Radial Load : PDynamic radial and axial coefficients

The dynamic-equivalent radial load on cross roller bearings is calculated using the following formula:

The 90% of a group of identical Cross Roller Bearings can operate individually under the sameconditions without showing material damage such as flaking caused by rolling fatigue. The basicrated life is represented by the total service hours for rotations at a constant rotational speed.

Cross Roller BearingGonio W

ayApplications

Due to the thin wall structure of the cross roller bearings, full consideration must be given tothe rigidity of the housing and flange discs. With split type bearings, if the housing or flangedisc is not rigid enough, the inner ring or outer ring cannot be evenly held, resulting bearingdeformation when moment load is applied. Therefore, the contact area of the rollers willbecome uneven, causing significant decrease in bearing performance.

To prevent this from occurring, it is recommended to design the housing and flange discs bythe following methods:

Housing wall thickness :

(D: outer diameter of the outer ring; d: inner diameter of the inner ring)

Alternatively, tapped holes forremoving bearings may be set upon the housing; when it isnecessary to remove the bearingsfrom housing, the screws may belocked into the tapped holes to pushthe bearing out without incurringany damage.

ayApplications

Please follow below steps when installing cross roller bearings:

Installation steps

1. Checking each part and component before installingClean the housing and other installation components, remove dirt and make sure there are no burrs.

2. Installing the cross roller bearings into housing or onto shaftThe cross roller bearing is easily tilted due to its thin wall structure. To install, level one side, and gradu-ally insert the bearing by evenly and cautiously hammering along the perimeter using a rubber hammer or similar tool until the sound of the ring come in full contact with the mounting surface.

3. Installing the flange disc(1) Place the disc into position, shake it along its circumference back and forth several times to match

the bolt holes.

(2) Install screws. When manually turning the screws, make sure that the screw is fully aligned with the screw hole.

(3) Tighten the screws in the order on the diagonal repeatedly as shown in the following figure, and fasten the disc from loose to tighten in three to four steps. When tightening the split type inner or outer rings, slightly turn the one-piece inner or outer rings to correct the misalignment between the ring and body.

Other precautions

Instructions on lubrication(1) Each cross roller bearings are pre-lubricated with high quality lithium soap grease No. 2. However,

the bearings need lubricating on a regular basis and users are required to reapply same type of grease at a minimum interval ranging from 6 to 12 months to enable the distribution of grease within the entire internal structure of the bearing; the actual interval depends on the machine or usage.

(2) Avoid mixing various kinds of lubrication grease.

(3) When the bearings are used under such special conditions as high vibration, clean rooms, vacuum, low and high temperature, it may be impossible to use general-purpose lubrication grease and please contact us before using special type grease.

Precautions on use(1) Foreign objects entering the interior of the bearings may damage the revolution path of the rollers or

disable their functions; take caution to prevent foreign objects entering the bearing.

(2) If bearings are used at an ambient temperature above 80℃, contact us first.

(3) When foreign objects enter the interior of bearings, apply lube oil again after cleaning the product.

(4) Do not attempt to remove the screws and nuts on the split type bearings.

Usage precautions

Lubrication :Use lithium soap based lubricating grease.

Retainer Deviation :Retainers will deviate from their correct positions when SFT Gonio Way are used under conditions such as high-speed, vibrations and unbalanced loads. To minimize this deviation, maintain additional travel distance, avoid excessive pre-load and cycle the rails to return the cage to its central position.

Dust prevention :SFT Gonio ways may not realize their ideal performance due to dust or foreign objects likely to enter the interior depending on operating environment; it is recommended to protect SFT Gonio Way by using external dustproof covers if they are to be used in extreme environments.

End Pieces :End pieces are installed to the end the SFT Gonio Way to prevent the roller cage from falling off the track.

Working Environment :It is recommended to operate SFT Gonio ways with temperature range from -20°C to 110°C.

Paired Usage :SFT Gonio Way accuracy is based on a complete set in order to realize a precise control. Combiningdifferent Gonio ways sets will affect accuracy; please exercise caution when assembling SFT Gonio Ways.

Adjustments :Inaccurate installation on the mounting surface or improper preload adjustment will reduce motion accuracy; thus causing the rail to skew and reduce performance and service life; exercise extreme caution during adjustment.

Allowable Load :Allowable load is defined as a guaranteed smooth roller movement under which a small enough total elastic deformation of the rolling element and the raceway in the contact area that receives maximum-contact stress. Please use the product within the allowable load to ensure high accuracy and smooth-motion.
