The production process of bearings

The production of bearings usually involves the following steps:

1. * * Raw Material Preparation * *: Select suitable raw materials, usually including metal alloys or special materials, for manufacturing inner and outer rings as well as rolling elements.

2. * * Heat treatment * *: Raw materials undergo heat treatment to improve their hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance.

3. * * Cold working * *: Processing raw materials into specific shapes through cutting, forming, and other methods for subsequent bearing assembly.

4. * * Grinding * *: Precise grinding of the inner and outer rings and rolling elements to ensure their dimensional accuracy and surface smoothness.

5. * * Cleaning * *: Clean and remove impurities such as grease and metal shavings during the processing to ensure the cleanliness of the bearings.

6. Assembly: Assemble the inner ring, outer ring, and rolling element according to the design requirements. Usually, an appropriate amount of lubricant needs to be filled during the assembly process.

7. * * Quality Inspection * *: Conduct quality inspection on finished bearings, including size measurement, rotational resistance testing, etc., to ensure that the products meet the standards.

8. * * Packaging * *: Packaging bearings that have passed quality inspection for transportation and sales.
