Description : In 1900, the middle of the industrial revolution, anti-friction bear- ings were made but not used. No one could calculate how long they might last be- fore failure. Machine builders were afraid to gamble on these newfangled devices. Fortunately a talented mechanical engineer working from 1910 to 1930 was re- sponsible for the correct calculation of bearing life, but in order to achieve the remarkable life expected some specific parameters had to be followed to meas- ure, fit, and properly install these precision anti-friction bearings. This course covers all aspects of industrial bearings. Choosing them, alignment, installation, lubrication, inspection, fitting and failure analysis. Bearing are removed and in- stalled on various pieces of equipment using both the hydraulic press and cone heater. Trainees are taught how to use micrometers to measure shafts and hous- ing diameters to the 0.0001”. In our ZOOM classes, workbooks and tools are sent in advance to students to allow them to follow along while the instructor demon- strates “hands-on” techniques. You will learn how to failure analyze a bearing and make your equipment run 5 to 10 times longer. Bearings are the thing to learn no matter what you are working on. Types of bearings Installation of Bearings Bearing Internal Clearance • • • Sleeve bearings Reading a micrometer Six clearance numbers • • • Anti-friction bearings Use of the ratchet stop Example of clearance dimensions • • • General purpose of all bearings Measuring to the 0.0001” C-3, C-4, C-5 clearances • Using fit charts • Decision making for replacement Anti-Friction Bearing History • Fitting a bearing to a shaft • How an anti-friction bearing works Measuring forces on a bearing • Fitting a bearing to a bore • • Purpose of bearings Vibration measurement • Use of telescope gauges • • Statistical life of a bearing Mils vs frequency • Shaft and bore repairs • • Arvid Palmgren’s work Severity chart • Making a Shaft Sketch • The failure-fatigue equation • Correction of force problems • Measuring and documenting a shaft - Unbalance L10 life • - Looseness • Measuring and documenting a bore How bearings are made video • - Misalignment Throw away or keep? - Resonance Types of Bearings - Piping strain Bearing Lubrication • Unmounted bearings • Oil lubrication Measuring bearing condition • Unmounted bearing video • Grease lubrication • Davis’s Law of Spalling • Mounted bearings • Calculation of amount • Acoustical emission • Mounted bearing video - Beach noise • Calculation of frequency • Ball bearings - Breakfast cereal noise • Special greases - BTU index • Roller bearings • Spherical bearings Bearing Failures & Correction Use of a vibration instrument • • On a pump Bearing Identification Loss of internal clearance • Overloading • On a fan • Series numbering • Overheating • On a gearbox • Bore ID • Fluting • Field troubleshooting • Open bearings • Brinelling • Shielded bearings PdM programs • False Brinelling • • Sealed bearings Monitor as needed • Fatigue failure • Route monitoring with computer CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES-Interactive ZOOM Class In order to make this remote class convey a sense of real hands-on activities certain tools, components, work books, and class exercise sheets are set to attendees at their location. A lot of the class is interactive between instructor and attendees because of this approach. In addition, real equipment is available at the MTI class room that will be used by our instructors to let the attendee witness the actual work involved. MTI uses industrial vid- eo to bring field work into the classroom. Real mechanics are shown accomplishing tasks in plant or facility loca- tions. When you leave this course you will be well grounded in lubrication practices and theory and how to service lubrication systems. Our approach is not just another showing of power point slides but rather an interactive class where attendees are called upon for answers and can ask for hands-on steps to be repeated to see it work.

DURATION, ATTENDANCE and TIMES One day duration (8 hours) and up to 12 students may attend. Students can be collected in a training room with ZOOM capacity at a client location or take the course at home using their ZOOM equipped laptop.
